New Fiesta ST from Philadelphia, PA

[jcr557]

So after shopping around I knew the price I wanted to pay and the exact Fiesta ST I wanted. I found a few locally but not the color I wanted. There was one I found in MD but when I called them a few weeks ago, they told me the car wasn't there and it was an ordered car anyways so they couldn't sell it to me, however they did have the best price which I was comparing against other dealers and no one got close. I continued my search at different dealers but no luck. This past Thursday they called me to let me know the white ST I wanted got there and the person who ordered it cancelled the order cause he couldn't wait for it and bought elsewhere. Anywho, Saturday after work I made the 2 and a half hour trip and picked up my ST. Btw, on my way there I saw a wrb hatch twin, and on the way back, I saw another wrb hatch twin. So far by driving the ST back, (I let my brother drive the Subaru back) I have noticed this car is amazing. The power, torque, steering, are great. Not that I have pushed the car to its limits yet lol. This morning I woke up and took it for another ride and its great. Now for the main reason of making this purchase. I've had 2 Fiestas before and now I still have the 2011 one which is a rally car. I bought this car because I like it and gas mileage is great compared to the Subaru with the power and features it has. I'm at work most of the time, but when I'm not I'm always driving around so mpg is very important. Eventually, the ST will be converted into a rally car but for now, I will enjoy the car to the fullest.

Enough talk, here's some pics.
This Weis was across the dealership, stopped there to grab a drink for the ride back to Philly.

And a couple from this morining.

I was looking for the base model because eventually it's going to get stripped, caged and see some stage rally but for now I'm just enjoying it to the fullest.

Welcome and congrats. I have a white one too. Love it - it's a blast to drive even though I only have 300km on it.

It's a b-spec car so most of the mods are done in suspension and safety plus the needed requirements to pass tech.

Rally-America spec cage.
Full suspension, front coil overs and rear bilstein shocks.
Broken Motorsports header.
Broken Motorsports race exhaust.
OMP racing seats.
OMP steering wheel.
Schroth 6pt Harness.
Terratrip rally computer
Team O'neil skid plate.
Hood and trunk pins.

I ordered it, but they wanted to make year end sales so they went and got mine from Springfield PA. I wanted no options as well but but the one in pa had the wheel and caliper options. They threw them in at the same price as my ordered one so I can't complain. They were great to deal with.

 

[jcr557]

Absolutely. I did everything through email. Showed up, signed, and drove away.

I took a drive last night in the car cause I knew I wouldn't be driving it in the next couple days, here's some pics at the KOP mall parking lot building.

PS. Normally I get my windows tinted right after I buy a car, but I haven't had time yet.
