long time fiesta st owner here. here are my top 5 mods that made the craziest difference to me 1.LSD 2.STAGE 2 Pro 3.Full Turbo back Exhaust 4.Good Tires 5. all the rest '150$ mods' are more or less on par (dv+/quick shift/coils and springs etc etc) nice to have but only small improvements do not forget about supporting mods; the biggest might be engine mount followed by intercooler! looks wise IMHO less is definetly more on those things!

Love my 2014 Molten Orange, I am going to keep it forever. Yep, blend door actuators, the banes of our existence. By the way, I think all STs came with a cargo cover that lifted with the hatch. Mine has it, perhaps they lost or broke theirs before you bought it. You're going to love the car overall. I upgraded the intake and bought an accessport tuned it to level 1 it made a difference, and I also upgraded to Sync3 with Android Auto, added an adapter to USB to make the connection wireless.

I'm about to trade my fxt swapped bugeye wrx for this car. like, this car caused me to unlearn everything i know and start over. it's almost silly how good this thing is. everywhere that I currently use awd, this car is just fine. granted I have a vlsd 4.44 rear diff, but an lsd would sort this thing out. but really, does it even need that? you could go up to 4.3 final if you don't want to mod the engine, but you could also just go stage 2 and remap it, and have more power through the 3.8 spread. really this car is pretty brilliant. it blows the fk civics out of the water. i bet you could really push an sti from behind on the togue. then you add the aluminum lca's up front and the torsion bar in the rear, get some gecko's or fortune auto's, or maybe just springs, the whileline swaybar kit, and do the focus st170 rotors and brackets. that's what I'm planning on anyway. my wrx cuts into corners pretty sharply, but this actually is stiffer than the bugyeye. I didn 't care for how dinky the clutch felt, but driving this car made me feel like I was living in the past and needed to evolve.

If you dont like the feel of the shifter swap it out for the carbon fibre ford performance one. Theyre expensive but totally worth it, may suggest a short shifter for it too

Love my 2017 ST , :-) last of the 1.6 4 cylinder ST,s before the 3 pot 1.5 jobs , maybe better interior , but no way as tuneable safely, or as much as a real raw" ST Driver enthusiast,s car " 4 cyl 1.6 is far stronger for sure ! Ford,s best Fiesta ST I reckon, as an owner of a Mk 7.5 ST last of those 1.6 , 4 cyl ones , and as a motor mechanic, to trade :-)

Yaris GT was not sold in the US, and it cost twice as much. Fit was slow. The other cars aren't subcompacts and cost a lot more.
