One of the best car reviews I've seen on KZfaq touching on everything including brake feels, noise level, and prices. Thumbs up!

Hey ALEX Happy NEW YEAR! I swear you have to be the MOST DETAILED REVIEWER on KZfaq. You don't miss a thing! Thank You!

I own this car and it's a blast to drive. Thanks for the review!

Other reviewers (especially dealers) should take not on how this guy does reviews. When you're looking to buy a car, this is the kind of stuff you want to know. Excellent work Alex.

Our 2014 Tangerine Scream (with the racing stripes) Focus ST is slightly different. The driver's seat is powered and both front seats are heated which is very nice up here in the Great White North. The steering wheel does not have the buttons at the 4 o'clock position. Those functions are contained in the buttons at the 3 o'clock position. And we have a full sized steel rim spare with a Continental? tire mounted on it in the back, not a donut spare. The Goodyear F1 mounted Y spokes are stored away for the winter with steel rimmed winter tires underneath the ST.

Another fine review. Look forward to your take on the 2015 VW GTI...Thanks Alex.

Love the reviews! I'd love to see you get your hands on the CLA 250 Mercedes! I went to the dealer yesterday and that violet color captivated me! It's as sexy as the new Mazda 3 and 6

The rear seats do fold flat but you have to remove the head rests and flip up the seat bottom first.

I love this car. I have been looking at cars for about 6 months now and I keep coming back to this one. Now they're talking about the RS coming out, so I guess I have to hold out a little longer.

Been waiting for your review on this one. Thanks!

Good review man. I got a lot of good info out of this. Thanks

Great review, my interest in this guitar is growing.

Another great review sir, thank you.

Great matter of fact review with loads of practical stuff that's good to know about this car when out driving like 95% of the owners.

Just a truth in advertising thing here. That is NOT a 2014 ST. It is a early build 2013 evidenced by the silver clading on the intake piping. Early builds had this. Later builds in late 2012 eliminated the clading because they were coming off of customer cars. Also the steering wheel has symetrical buttons on it. In 2014 they elimiated the right hand lower buttons from the wheel and incorporated those functions on other buttons. I have 2 2013 ST's one built in Feb 2013 and one in April 2013 and neither has the silver intake clading

An excellent review.Thanks!

Enjoyed the review. Thank you.

The back seats do fold flat!!, you just have to remove the headrest and pull up on the bottom cushon first then fold the backs down!

Sounds good I like the deep sound of the exhaust.

Hi Alex. I just want to let you know about the hood and bumper spacing is adjustable to narrow the tolerance. It isn't to for cooling. My 2013 Ford Focus ST is exactly the same as the 2014 model except for the options of on the wheels, brake and pin strips. The car has 252 HP and 270 TQ at 2500 RPM not 247 HP and 266 TQ at 1500 RPM.
