Paid too much for a turbocharged egg

I bet you vaguely refer to this car as your "ST" in hopes of making people think you drive a Focus ST.

Right here

What is this car? Not a focus ST?
Edit: Oh fiesta
27
Nah, I bet he calls it a "FiST" like all the other car internet d-bags.
21
To be fair, FiST is a pretty cool acronym. Too bad it’s attached to a shit car for people who peaked in high school. Fiero ST would be a better FiST if GM decided to make a mid-engine Miata/MR2 style car again
23
Bring back Pontiac for the FiST? I'm here for it.
3
I want a Ranger st
12
Hey! I take pride in the fact that I sprung for the slower, smaller, uglier sibling to the Focus ST! I can’t have people thinking I wanted a good car
11
Ehh focus is MUCH uglier than fiesta

Better than the twats that drive the Edge ST.

The Fiesta ST may be the only car that I can think of with stock alloys that look worse than a hub cap. Those wheels look like they are made out of jagged soda can lids.
135
I was thinking garbage can lids.
23
I mean, what else are you supposed to put on a garbage can?
8
No, they look like the wheels on a garbage can.
2
To me they look like the slicing discs used in food processors
8
I can’t wait for the paint to start chipping off of them, also similar to jagged soda cans.

Was the v6 mustang too much to handle for you?
105
My other car is a Miata so I can’t handle anything more than 200 hp
38
Its because his girlfriend/wife is making the payments. He's probably a musician and the hatchback is for his "gear."
11
My boyfriend*. Also I’m a guy
18
Your boyfriend, your car, you; it’s a happy gay triangle
38
Gay car, gay life.
14
Probably was too scared to run over pedestrians
1
The only Fiesta is the one the salesmen throw when they actually sell one of those blobby blowybois.
63
I swear they had me out the door in 15 minutes. Thought I spotted a piñata in their lounge around the corner, too
18
I'm sorry, I thought we were supposed to be roasting your car. Your responses have had me laughing more than the roasts!
4
Quit trying to be nice to the salesmen, we all know that happens anytime the actually are able to sell a Ford
1
Finally, a car to beat out all NA small cars... Barely.
44
Cool Chevy Sonic
39
Bruh it’s a Pontiac Vibe!
16
You wish you had that much cargo space.
16
That had a Toyota engine, this is 100 times less reliable.
3
Nah man, the Pontiac Vibe at least had that dope song in the commercial and all the sex toy jokes.
This one just comes with regret.
1
I was looking at buying one of these, but I bought an automatic '88 Camry Wagon since it was cooler.
32
It really is cooler though, so idk if it’s a diss.
9
The Camry has a nicer interior, too!

Only$98,000 more and you can have a rallycross car.
25
As someone who wants a Fiesta ST for that purpose. That one hurt to read haha
15
Team O’Neil here I come!

It's not nearly fast enough for you to outrun the fact that you drive an economy rental with a body kit.
24
I definitely will outrun the body kit when it falls off
14
Do you get discounted vape prices tho?
23
I got a sunroof specifically for spewing my radical vape clouds for all to see
18
I thought only subies get discounts
11
"it's a front wheel drive Miata"
So it's a bare-bones subcompact that has the worst possible layout for balance and handling? Sick. The only thing it has in common with a Miata is it will get crushed like a tin can by Karen's 2013 Ford Explorer.
16
I’d really love for Karen to put me out of my misery
6
When does the bov go on so everyone knows how big your dick is?
14
Nah, OP will get a Boomba BOV spacer brooooooo because it makes all the sweet validating choochoo noises without actually doing anything productive. At least an actual BOV could be justified for future performance upgrades.
18
You are correct.
6
Doesn't the Fiesta ST have a recirculating bypass valve so putting a bov that vents to atmosphere will make the car run rich.
5
Speaking of blow off valves causing the car to run rich we've got this kid at my school with a Volkswagen Passat that he's ricing out completely and did this exact thing and swapped the bov with some Instagram influencer bov. So it's always throwing engine codes because it's running rich every time he lets off the throttle. He also tried putting 19 rims on it but they rubbed on his fenders so he called them his show tires and would swap them in a gas station parking lot right before rolling up to a car show with it. He'd then do rolling burnouts and attempt to drift it around extremely expensive super cars at cars and coffee. It's not even his car it's his dad's and he's beating the shit out of the poor thing.
His current list of "mods" are his shit blow off valve, a missing muffler, and running 5w20 oil.
His current engine codes are high oil pressure, running rich, and some electrical issue that is so bad it's disabled the airbags I wish I was joking
11
Insert surprise Pikachu face when the engine blows and the story will be complete.
2
IIRC it’s like a 50/50 bypass or something and the mass air sensor works around it. I never looked too far into it because of how goddamn stupid it is.
4
Moments before I rear-end someone because I had to make choo-choo noises at pedestrians
7
Legit lold
3
It's still a fiesta.
11
I can’t hear you over the sound of road noise and failed, clicking blend door actuators.
9
When it hatches its a lame duck. Hatches meaning head gasket
8
Gasp! My car has something in common with the Focus RS after all! :’)
4
Ford should have just left the seats in that car un-upholstered they look so cheap
6
My dad said it’s cool
4
I guess the car that parking place belonged to was out of stock
3
Calling that fresh tampon on wheels an egg is doing a disservice to the mighty Toyota Previa.
3
As long as you know.

“I bought this car because all the journalists said so”
Ironic it’s the same color as a sheep.
Sheeple car at sheeple prices
I needed to experience its QUIRKS and... actually it just had quirks
FEATURES
and then I'm going to drive it
and then I’m going to give it a DougScore™️
Hey to be fair you actually thought Turbocharged meant something in this pig too.
I’m not here to roast you and I’m sorry BUT I drove the standard one as a rental recently and really loved it. I imagine the turbo GOES though. How do you like it?
But just to fit the sub here: if you own this car outside of Europe as I can see you do, everyone behind you will assume you are either a 40 year old Karen with a shit job or at the very least a metrosexual European wanna be hipster who pronounces crepes with a French accent and owns beard conditioner.
Or are you just unholy more practical than the rest of us?
The Fiesta ST is fun but feels like it made of old legos.
Drove a friends FiST. It’s not fast, but it’s quick and peppy. I can’t imagine it’s much quicker than a BRZ, or something of the sort.
Yeah, I really liked the short wheel base and peppy engine. The hatch gave a good amount of room too. With a turbo I assume it’d drive like a modern Mazdaspeed Protege.
I love it so far! It's definitely not a fast car, but it's lively and fun to toss around. Well, it'll be fun until I roll it into a ditch, or until the motor blows up - whichever comes first
Found On Road Disappointed
A+ on that toast wow haha
Well not new its not. Give it a couple times in the rain to pick up dust and dirt =)
