After getting rid of the 13 5.0 in the summer of last year it was the first time I'd been without a Ford since I started driving. I travel a lot and having 2 SUVs was dumb so we traded in our Tahoe for a ST. Mods will be minimal but I'll do a catback, front sway and wheels/tires. Probably compete a little in some autox events. In better news, in April, I'll be getting a car back that I built a few years ago a was a pretty big hit on here. A 98 Terminated Cobra. I'll be going full road race car with that one and of course add to my build thread I started. Any ST owners in here?

Nice! If they had a low mileage one here for a good price id be in one instead of my Gen. Both ST's are insanely awesome cars and hugely fun to drive. And the tuning support out there for them is really good already and its only been two years. In 3-4 it will be amazeballs, especially with the 2.3 EB mustang and RS Focus coming. Ford is going to get an aftermarket for these cars that rival Evo/STi's in half the timeframe.

Thanks. Yeah this is a CPO car so the warranty is better now than it was new. 2014 with 7k miles. Picked it up cheap too. I'm hearing really good things about the Ford tune and if I can get more power and keep the warranty I'm all for it.

Congrats!

My wife and I both have Focus ST's, I enjoy driving it more than our Mustang.
