Black is the best color. Goes with the grille perfectly.

Fellow San Diegan here! Are you breaking in the engine or just heading straight to Mt. Palomar? That guy should be a beast heading up the tight South Grade road.

Yeah I miss Mt. Palomar, haven't been up there in ages. If there's enough SD Oppo's on here we should all make a trip of it.

I go up there about once a year. I like going alone, though, because (a) I'm generally antisocial and (b) I don't trust myself not to drive like an idiot if there's a faster car/driver either ahead of me or behind me.
My uncle once spun off Banner Grade trying to keep up with other cars, and I was a passenger on a Miata club run that was irresponsible at best - despite being a bunch of grown-ups driving in a supposedly casual group. I'd rather do my own thing at my own speed, you know?
How was Drew Ford to deal with, by the way? Is an ST just a matter of getting the right options and paying MSRP, or are they making deals?

Drew Ford was pretty good, no high-pressure crap or anything like that. As long as you go in knowing exactly what you want, you're fine. I told them I wanted a base ST, no Recaros, nav, etc. They had one black base unit on the lot, so I got it. They gave me employee pricing, before all the taxes, fees, etc. I brought in another deal with North County Ford and they bettered it. I'd recommend them if you're looking for a new ST, haha. Fun car.

needed to some how integrate with stock badging. I'm thinking "oppo fiesta" to indicate what a party we have here, or "SToppo" to indicate... that that is like a word you can sorta make with ST and oppo...

Sounds good, man. It seems like all the car culture is up in LA, not so much in SD :(

Thanks, I originally wanted blue but the dealer said it would take a month or so to custom order it. Apparently there were no blue ST's in CA with the base options.

Speaking of which, I'm planning on putting this on the Race Ranger

One last tip for you: There's a cars & coffee this Saturday at Symbolic's service center in Sorrento Valley from 9 to noon. I'm hoping it will become a regular event (or maybe it is and I just haven't heard about it).
