I love this car! No wonder so many people love it. Thanks for watching!
Yes sir David :)
+Meerkat Medium it's great!
*shit.... been trying to tell you to do a review on this car for the longest time. Comment ignored every time.* =(
I absolutely love mine. I got a performance blue 2015 because of Matt Farah. Never got to drive or see the car until I bought it and it was delivered from Atlanta, but I'm happy I got it. I'm about to get some Federal RSR's and hopefully see what it can do.
+AzNightmare not ignored- just not available to be locally. All offers were way too far.
Just decided to check your channel :D
If you're ever in the Seattle area, come review my slightly stanced 1987 325is
Early comments are the best comments-Hunt Army😉
I love tjs videos but man you sounded cringe worthy as hell there lmao
Wonder if their gonna add the rs
The Fiesta ST is such a rockstar. Was lucky enough to get an 8 hour stint in one, I'm hooked. I couldn't believe how much fun it was for a small FWD hatch back. Will definitely be my next DD
"this car is like a little go kart" Are you sure this is like a LITTLE go kart. Kinda seems bigger than a normal kart doesn't it? 😉
Maybe he was comparing it saying it's like a little one
Little compared to his car
Butt-hurt Civic Yeah, I got it. I still though it would be funny to mention
I love the Fiesta. If it wasn't for the extra practicality of the Focus, I'd have a Fiesta because it's more fun to drive and you can use more of the power most of the time.
track addict in the making?
When will we see a driving video of the 240?
Whenever it is finished
Can't drive a car that doesn't run. Haha
Lmao I know, I just wanted to ask because the motor is in and things are running. Figured it would be driving fairly soon
does this mean the 240 might make it to a track day?????
Having had one I can vouch for how damn good of a driving car it is, runs laps around my previous GTI not only in fun factor but agileness.. But where it falls flat on its face and why I got rid of it, they make horrible cars to live with every day, little stuff randomly breaking constantly, spent 44 times in a year and a half at the dealer between troubleshooting and repair. Its noisy, a rattle trap, and obviously cramped because its a sub compact vs a Focus or similar. One of the best FWD cars made, definitely, one of the best cars in its class all around, not by a long shot.
Wow. Mine's been great.
I test drove one couple days ago and it felt little "artificial" to me. Got back on my modded 05 wrx and felt like I was more connected with the car. But I do have to say that FiST is a fun car!
So your own personal way more expensive modded awd car felt better than an economy car? I'm absolutely flabbergasted.
Fiesta st or vw polo gti?
Fiesta
I test drove a Focus ST, Fiesta ST, BRZ, and GTI. I ended up with a Fiesta ST. The GTI was fastest all around, the brz had great handling but a gutless motor and wasn't as practical. The Fiesta just felt like a scalpel and had great brakes. You can push the Fiesta ST so hard on your daily commute and it puts the fun factor through the roof. You can't push a mustang like that on your way to work without going to jail.
Where I can buy Ford Racing harness???
You can buy a harness anywhere, the problem is a safe mounting point for it.
I know where to buy harness, and how to mount it, but didnt find anywhere "ford racing" brand
I want to do some autocross like this one day with my car or any car to be honest lol
scoobapalooza has auto cross
Not auto x
+Iller Than An Aids Patient is that a sentence?
Chuck McCracken A very shitty sentence yes, there is no auto x in the video
can't wait to buy mine! Saving the pennies! Was a toss up between this and the older Evo 8/9 but I decided on this after driving both. Much better daily & still fun! thx for the track review!
You were YELLING REALLY LOUDLY!! lol
That looks like a lot of fun David! I heard so many great thing about the Fiesta ST! Looking forward to your next video!
David you need to find a way to do a review on the focus rs!
I own one, if David ever comes to Houston he can review mine, haha.
***** damn lucky lol
Kamren Zinzow Haha! Well, he can chose from my 2005 Ford GT, 2014 Shelby GT500 SuperSnake, Ford Focus RS, and my 2016 Shelby GT350R. People don't believe me when I say that, but it's whatever. Lol.
***** all I have is a basically track ready S2000 lol
Kamren Zinzow It is an AP1 or AP2? I love S2000s.
You need to go to an auto cross event when the 240 is done. Auto cross is a blast and will teach you a lot about driving!!
I want to get some training like this in my fiesta st sooo badly.
What up
this video only compounded my adoration for my fiesta St :-D
why do y'all like these mini vans?
then sedans are minivans with an extended rear
harsh
Well no, it's not available to any ST owner. You have to be the original first buyer and you have to register within a year of purchase. They will verify with your VIN.
PUT ME IN SNAP
Aren't basically all small hot hatches balanced? Clio RS, Pug 208 GTI are as well (I know they aren't avaliable in the UK)
You mean the US right?
Mike Halpert yeah haha
We have none of those.
Ethan Shrago Yeah I know but just think it's a bit unfair on the competition because it's not like they're unbalanced. Fair enough for TDIB because yeah you don't get them though
That's a cute FiST
Go David. Been subbed since 22k. Amazing to see how the channel has grown😃
lol the yelling
Just wanted to say it was awesome meeting you tonight man, such a big fan of your videos, keep it up man!
Im no band loyalist either, but Ford has really stepped their game up as of late.
Finally, Americans get actual cars nowadays.
how much did Ford pay you?
they gave him a free trip and instruction
when you buy a st you get the class for free.
he doesnt own an st
It's because I saw other youtubers reviewing the focus st/rs
You definitely need to drive more hot hatches, none of them are shit if I recall correctly
Nice hope you enjoyed the ride ! I like ford !
he loves fords and blue
whens the next car review gonna be??? i really miss that content.
Whenever they stop breaking or canceling on me.
9 Cars have so far since moving to ATL. Haven't and the best luck since.
If you're ever in Cali. I have the older RS's brother car. Don't think it'll break down.
i knew you would love the fiesta. i tried to get you to review mine.
what upgrades did they do? Or was it just a roll cage they did?
On the FiST - roll cage, braided brake lines, brake pads, tires, hydraulic hand brake, 4 point harness
On the FoST - roll cage, braided brake lines, brake pads, tires, hydraulic hand brake, catless turbo back exhaust, radiator, oil cooler, break cooling ducts replace fogs
woop!
The focus St looks a lot better imo
agreed
of course
I like the width of the Focus and the side profile but, the front of the fiesta looks better. The fiesta's taillights look many many times better and the rear is personal preference.
*****
I can respect that
Negative ghost rider.
Good job on talking while driving!!!!
It's a Ford
It's FWD
It's in front of the Rear Wheels
Mustang Crashes most likely will happen at the front
Mustangs are RWD, so in front of the rear wheels is the front end (aside from the front wheels).
FWD is the opposite of RWD.
If it's opposite, this means FWD Fords will crash most likely on the rear end.
BOOM! Ford Science! (No Offense)
+Vehicle Vector what the hell
+Tatonia Johnson Chill. It was just a joke.
And it's also mind blowing to think about. Kind of.
+Vehicle Vector ik lol just busting ur bubbles like most utube trolls would
you've got good tracks around you now man! You have to track the 240 when it's done :)
Review mine...
Next vlog: David gets a new daily! With a sombrero!
suh dude
WHY ARE WE SHOUTING?
I agree that Fords highest trim models are great, but their base models besides the Mustang are ass.
man i wanna bring my rs there would tht be aloud?
Being a FoST owner I cannot wait for the next vid of it!
I thought about getting a Focus or Fiesta ST, but I ended up with a Mustang. Oops :D
Miss the old car review type videos!
Early Comments are the best comments
The yelling is cracking me up haha
snapchat squad?
Your microphone really has some quality
You need to drive my 13 Fiat 500 Abarth! The definition of a go-kart! Great video bro!!
Those are fun cars if you mad on them haha
seriously...
when are you selling both your cars and just buying a GT350.... you know you gunna do it... just knuckle under..
You're screaming and we could hear you clearly at a normal talk volume
SO MUCH INTENSITY
WHAT ARE WE YELLING ABOUT?!?!?!?
Him yelling causes the dynamic microphone to alter its volume levels so you can hear him. If he didn't shout he'd blend into the white noise.
+benanderson89 thanks for explaining audio to people who don't know anything about audio 👍
Hopefully you get to try out a modified FiST at some point. I love mine.
could barely hear you
Haha stop yelling...
The only video from u i had a hard time watching, you screaming was just hurting my ears, rather just hear the car
Early comment gang!!

Hey TDB, i'm sorry, i really like you, but i'm gonna be that guy, the sell-out thing is getting a bit boring.
We get it, they are good cars, no need to brain force it. I know you make a good income with these Ford videos and so i understand why you continue doing them, but please, no more, i think we got enough of it. At least i have.
Hahaha this guy
the fiesta st has such an ugly shape
