This was the last gas-powered car I owned! Bought one new in 2013, total base model, Oxford White, no Recaros. Traded it in after 18 months and 35,000 miles because I was just killing it with freeway commute miles, but it was such a beast to drive. I think about it a lot!
lol, I was thinking “hope that guys fine with being in the shot” and then saw him circling the car and opening the trunk. So funny to see for some reason
I have a 2014 ST3 with 145,000 miles. I've taken very good care it, and it still looks like it was built yesterday inside and out. So much fun to drive in any kind of traffic or roads and it has needed ZERO unscheduled maintenance so far. Fun and easy to drive fast.
Luckily, mine was practically mint. Got it last Nov at 85k. It's at 105k. Just tested compression; pretty much perfect still. Favorite car so far, including c class Benz and a wrx.
Key fob sensor honks the horn randomly, instrument panel screen doesn't come on, and speedometer sometimes stays at zero; damn this car has hella problems and I thought my Focus SE was as bad as it gets
I know therea faster hatches yada yada but i truly enjoy mine. Plan on being a ling term toy. 3k for engine replacement if that ever is required. Like the utility, driving feel, sound (aftermarket blow off, tune, exhaust, 270 ish whp vs stock 230) want an rs but hard tonfind one where i live and for some reason want an st and rs.
as soon as you started the car already noticed a couple things, First the LED Display in the middle of the gauge cluster wasnt working, and secondly, you had 2 warning lights on the dash as well..you actually had 3 warning lights on the dash.. ...was there something wrong with the car at the time you drove it???
Was not a huge fan of the ergonomics in these - the controls don't feel quite right and the powertrain feels a bit distant as well. The Fiesta ST just feels more immediate and wieldy. The FOST is certainly quick though.
Guy at my job has one of these, I can only assume his is stock because hes tested his luck against my stock GLI a few times when we are headed out for the day and he doesnt stand a chance.
They are underwhelming stock no doubt. Mines a very insignificant bit more powerful than stock at around 270 who vs stock 230 ish and yeah, it needs some love to be even moderately quick. Though 400 is the best you cam ask for before the fwd platform gets overwhelmed.
I remember I first got the car before it came out in 2013 and then I have officially upgraded to a new car in 2022 in the inside the weather and everything inside is chipping off and it’s being dented even the seats are peeling, and the leather is ruining
Almost every video I see of an American driving a "stick shift" (or manual as we call them), they wiggle the gear stick 5-6 times to check it's in neutral. Just a single tap to one side is all you need to do. 🙂

Interestingly even the base model cloth seats were made by Recaro.
I love watching the making of another pov video while watching a pov video.

is the engine reliable?
great to hear !
I like how another person not far from the reviewer simultaneously makes a review of the Fiesta 😅
love how the speedo only works when it wants to lmao
and the gauge cluster screen simply doesn't
Such a fun car and great daily driver. Very affordable when new. Still haven’t forgiven Ford for not giving us the new Focus/Fiesta ST in the US.
but hey... it's there..in 2024
@@dielog2211I’m hoping you mean you can buy a used one since we don’t have new ones
@@TeamLuxzGaming umm...we do have new one...what are you talking about...
@@dielog2211not in the United States
This is currently my dream car, Im going to get it soon but thank you so much for making me feel like I own it already😂👍
Dream bigger
HAPPY SATURDAY EVERYONE.....HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A GOOD DAY ✌️
Bought mine new in 2013. Still living the dream with full bolt-ons and a 91 octane tune.
5:46 The little race is incredible 😂😂
A fist and a fost. Still two of my favorites. Really wish NA Ford didn’t suck now.
Best US car channel.
Thinking about trading in my 2013 mazdaspeed 3 for a 2016 St. I love the interior on these
I absolutely love the way that the blinkers sound on similar year Ford products
❤❤❤LOVE IT WHEN YOU GUYS TAKE TWO CARS AT ONCE 👏👏👏.... FUN TO WATCH YOU GUYS KEEP UP WITH EACH OTHER ETC ..👏👏👏.
I like watching videos by Winding Road Magazine :)
I do miss my old 2013 ST. Was a great car for me, unfortunately the winters were not kind to the body
Why your cars are being our favorite
These are either in good condition or absolutely destroyed and it feels like there's no in between

The double horn honk when closing doors with key fob in pocket is so annoying. I had that disabled via software ASAP
Had a se to 245k and had none of these issues and my. Hrrent st had 105 k and none.
I have my first manual car (87 accord lxi) but whenever my daily dies I’m wanting one of these
Car time guys
I owned a tangerine cream of this car and man oh man this was a blast to drive. I'm ashamed I sold it

bro, where do you find these cars from, do you rent or get from friend or how ?
In today’s money, that’s 31K and says a lot about Ford that this was discontinued.
No

Honestly, most of these of these are clapped out by previous youthful owners and bad mods.
Forgot how quiet the Stock ST is...😊
Turn around reading book+😊🎉

For stacy new car interior 😊

You’re stock GLI…

Just to mention the mustang was brand new😊
I used to see a lot of these and now I hardly ever see them
That’s an ecoboost engine for ya
Most of them broke down. People eventually get sick of the stalling problems these cars have. And sell them at a loss.
The purge valve issues are annoying. I’ve never stalled out but it tries to after fill ups. Other than that car’s been a really fun modded daily
Speedometer is broken.. shocker 😂 😂
Why did you go with a low trim? Higher trims had full leather recaros, a subwoofer in the trunk, heated seats...
Any of you ever get water in your Focus?
We need a foot cam

Hello
Almost every video I see of an American driving a "stick shift" (or manual as we call them), they wiggle the gear stick 5-6 times to check it's in neutral. Just a single tap to one side is all you need to do. 🙂
Why this problem in Kilometers?😂🤣😰😱
Chris's father's car
So we can get the latest version 😂
Actually no! Chris's father has an RS in much better condition.
fiesta is far better over the focus the electrical issues with the focus alone are enough were i would never buy one
Cringe tinted tails but nice winter tire setup
Man...the roads there are absolute garbage. 50k miles turns into 100k of wear in no time.
ale kiepskie drogi tam mają
