Went out for milk

Forgot the milk, came home with turbo.

I haven't had the chance to take any pics of it yet so here are the stock pics from the dealer's website...







Has Recaros, Nav, and a sunroof... not sure when i'll use the sunroof in Seattle but the car is awesome. I don't think I'll miss anything about my Veloster except for the car payment, and maybe the gas mileage. :wiggle:

My boyfriend stole it tonight and took it to work and left me with the FR-S... guess I finally have a car he wants to drive

If they put Gotta Have it Green on the ST, our wallet would be in trouble!

Very nice. I'm going to have to look at one of these sometimes. How are the seats?

Now you can take the grocery-getter to get the milk!

just joking...I love the ST. I strongly considered waiting for it. Enjoy! And post up a review after you've had it for a little.

I wish i had the financial security to buy a car spontaneously. I really like those cars, but something i can't stand about it is the steering wheel. Either way, it's my favorite color and i'm sure it's a riot to drive.

Cool purchase! Those seats look very comfy and supportive.

We have fond memories of having fun in a 1st gen Focus. Enjoy it in good health!

I agree with Asterisked about the steering wheel. 4 spokes doesn't scream "performance" to me. Otherwise, very cool car! Congrats!

The steering wheel is fine, I can't even put into words how great it feels. This entire car is very well put together and I personally cannot wait to get it on track.

Great purchase. We got one too. See you on the ST forums.

Looks good in red.

I like the new Focus, but when I see it in blue with the red STi, er... ST badge I kinda roll my eyes...

I know what you mean, which is why I forgive your mistake.

IMHO, the ST is even more practical than the WRX, it gets decent fuel economy.

I've been pretty impressed with all of Ford's latest offerings lately. Kind of surprised me.

But yeah, no WRB ST for me... heh...

The seats are very supportive and snug, I love them.
