Whoa Dude. The Fiesta ST is pretty fun when you turn the boost up and run 40% ethanol. The 1.6L eco boost easily handles 25 lbs and produces 220 hp 260 ft/lbs on the stock turbo, 285-300 hp 310 ft/lbs on a minimal upgraded turbo.

It don’t sound like much, but @ 2,700 pounds and mated to a 6 speed, the car is a rocket ship around the corners. Ford got this one right. It’s all you need or can handle in the city at a bargain price. The 4 doors come in handy when you have to run a couple kids around, and the hatchback can haul some groceries. Kinda like the old wagons.

Here is a couple photos of my daily as it sits today.
