Hello from down unda in Sydney! Name is Con. Originally from Canadia. Moved here six years ago.
Anyways, long story short. I come from a long history of cars and bikes, and modding them. Had a Scirocco R, many a VW GTI in general (MK3, MK5), an Acura RSX Type-R (or a Honda Integra for any other local Aussies). I promised I wouldn't do that anymore, but heck, I know I will haha.
I put a deposit on a new Fiesta ST in PB, and getting the wheels painted black by the dealer. I should be getting it in the next couple weeks I hope. It is one of the first STs in the country (or at least part of the first batch), and the first one the dealer is delivering. I am not sure of the exact date yet as the cars are still not for sale here in Oz. They're supposed to go on sale in September. I'm keen as heck to get it. Bought it without even driving it!
Plan on doing a few things down the road. Nothing major. I don't want to make this into a car it shouldn't be. Probably do an exhaust, tune...on the hunt for a short shift kit (if it's like the Focus ST, I personally think it could be a bit shorter!).
Anyways, hoping to learn lots here. This is my first Ford.
Cheers.
