The micro machine, 2016 Fiesta ST

[Nomar06]

Picked up this little bugger 3 weekends ago in the D.C. area after wanting a change from the 2015 Si Sedan I've had since Feb 2015.

Drove it back to Charlotte in all kinds of traffic and rain, yet the smile couldn't be wiped from my face. This little bugger is fun for what it is.

Very cool man. I know @k757 probably has some recommendations since he had one for a bit.

Nope, just a little jealous. After chasing an mr2 this summer, my Si seems to resemble a Japanese Cady

Heard she did well at the Dragon. Is this correct?

 

[Nomar06]

It did very well, lots of fun. Needs better tires.....was spinning the inside front tire coming out of some corners and maybe brake lines.....brake pedal seemed soft for me.

Cobb Rear Motor Mount installed this weekend. Nice 35 min instal that should help a bit. Drives nice with the mount in there. Little rattle on startup and if the idle dips below 800. Not really noticeable in the car. Make the in between shifts a lot more crisp.

Ford cheaped our and used the same motor mounts across all versions of the Fiesta. The ST has quite a bump in TQ which lead to the engine moving around a lot so upgrading the RMM is almost a “must”.

Installed a hitch a month or two ago. Still need to buy a rack for the bikes.

Rotated the wheels, added ST centercaps, washed it.
