I ordered my Liquid Grey ST this past friday. Should be here in 6-8 weeks.
Only options I ordered was the leather/suede seating and the moonroof.
I didn't want the alarm as the car will be getting a 2way remote start / alarm anyways. Didn't want the side airbags ($500), didn't want the audiophile system as I will be putting my own subs in anyways.
I plan on getting a Marcy Motorsport intake over the winter for performance mods to start. The car will get full tint and the alarm shortly after arrival.
I test drove the car and was very impressed with the responsivness of the engine and suspension. Seems to be a very comfortable car as well.
I will be going from a 1994 SHO (currently for sale) to the Focus. I never was much of a fan of the Focus until I saw and drove the ST. I like the looks of it - very Mondeo like.
I am definately looking forward to using regular gas as opposed to premium and getting some great mileage. Plus with the fast gears / small tires it makes city driving much more enjoyable, especially with a lighter clutch then I am used to.
For those who have gotten these - How are the Pirelli's tires so far? General thoughts on the car?
