My 13 Focus ST Hatch

[pacificfordqld]

Thought I'd give you Falcon guys something in the FWD world to look at and talk about.

This is my 13 Ford Focus ST Hatch, obviously 6 speed manual because we don't believe in automatic transmission in ST land.

I plan on keeping it for a while, until something else temps be (Mustang anyone?)

So I've lowered it from day one. Thoughts on future mods are different rims, also waiting on what Mountune will have to offer once/if they come to Australia.

What I like:

2.0 Ecoboost engine- heaps of power from stock

Handling- I can go around corners really fast, like super fast.

Sound symposer- sound bloody awesome, sounds like the old 5 pot from the cabin

Recaro seats- if you are massive these seats won't be good, for someone like me (average Joe), they are perfect, very snug

Sync with emergency assist- Sync isn't a gimmick for me, best example. I have a 500G hard drive in the USB port. I tell Sync to play Slayer or New Kids on the Block and it will do it. No going through the menu and rolling my car into
a ditch full of water because I wasn't looking ahead. BUT if I did do such thing, Emergency assist will call for help if I'm upside down and out cold.

Sony sound system- pretty good for a stock unit

4 doors- makes life a lot easier to be honest

Ambient lighting- interior highlights in red throughout car at night, looks very cool.

Smart key- never had it but love it. Walk up with keys in my pocket and open and start without doing anything or push button on door handle and lock it. Oh also the mirrors fold in on locking AND when I unlock mirror
puddle lamps and parker lights come on.

Bi-xenon HID headlights- everything is so bright! Also the fog lights come on when cornering. Bam.

Global open windows- love this, when its really hot, hold down unlock and all windows come down as you are walking up to the car. All windows are one touch too.

Misc stuff- Sat Nav, reverse camera, sensing, cruise, bluetooth, ESC button on the dash (makes life easier than going through a menu), auto wipers, auto headlamps, dual climate control

Dislikes:

Nothing. At all.

I'm sure I've missed stuff, but that will do for now!
