Looked at one with the Full tech package, Recaros, and moonroof. Sticker price was $35,265 CAD.

2015 GTI Autobahn in the next lot over was almost the exact same price. Same price for a 4 door Wrangler too.

Get a Fiesta instead.

They are marking it up, that is easily 2 grand more than you should pay, not including stuff like 3M wraps. But seriously, listen to Brian and get a Fiesta ST.

Isn't that the point?

Would love to but they have only had one here and it was sold the first day they got it in. Too much demand.

They could probably put 40k and sell it, they don't last long on the lots here. The dealer said they have only had 4 FoST and 2 FiSTs since they came out.

I know what you're saying. Mine was seriously hard to get a hold of.

Is ordering an option?

Lumpy44, Proprietor Of Fine Gif > Brian Silvestro

Ordering seems to have a whole set of fees and they have no idea when it will come in. Silly Canada.

Goddammit Canada. Time to move to the US.

HAHAHAHAHA no. Might go check the lots in Montana for one though.

That's the UK for you. Higher new prices and lower used prices. So we have the strangeness of it being terrible for a new buyer and excellent for used buyers.

LOL, do it.

Wait a couple years and you could get an awesome deal on one by the sounds of it. So many more hot hatch options there though.

$29,690 for a FoST in Great Falls... Only 2 hours away.

But that's not a Fiesta! Focus STs are so common, I see several everyday. I've never seen another Fiesta ST in the wild.

Thats insane!!!! In wisconsin sticker price on a 14ST3 was down to 26k with an ST1 coming in at 21k

Also i might warn you that the leather seats are rather uncomfy after the first hour and the My ford Touch is notoriously shit. Maybe save some money, get an ST1 and if you want better seats, buy and install them yourself.

Lumpy44, Proprietor Of Fine Gif > Brian Silvestro
08/08/2014 at 12:27

They had no FiSTs!!!! Plus I kind of like the little extra space. If the Fiesta was a a few grand cheaper I could probably be swayed.

Might have to make a trip to Wisconsin. I know they are typically a bit more here in Canada but the margin seems crazy. I like the Recaros and the Ford Touch will be miles better than my Sonomas tape player.

Yeah the used deals are getting pretty good. The average depreciation is roughly 50% over 3 years, so if you're willing to live without a warranty you can save a fortune on a well looked after car.

Hot hatch wise I'm quite taken by the Fords. Especially the fiesta for value, new it's a fair amount cheaper than many of its rivals.

I know! Just need to find one, in Blue, or Black, with Recaros and the darker rims.

Brian Silvestro > Lumpy44, Proprietor Of Fine Gif
08/08/2014 at 12:39

Yeah, and I wanted one in blue with Recaros only, but that didn't happen. I had to compromise because that's how hard it was to find one. But I have no regrets. I needed the Recaros, and I got them.

Lumpy44, Proprietor Of Fine Gif > Brian Silvestro
08/08/2014 at 12:40

When you say Recaros only, what else do you mean? Options you didn't want?

Brian Silvestro > Lumpy44, Proprietor Of Fine Gif
08/08/2014 at 12:43

Well I really didn't want the sunroof because weight, and the other two I just didn't want to pay for because I didn't want them. Ended up with two options only. The seats and the dark wheels. "Good enough!" I shouted, and as long as the color wasn't red or that awful green, I was fine with it.

I've seen a grand total of 1 FiST in Calgary.

I ended up getting all the options because that was all they had in that colour, pretty sure I bought the last performance blue in Canada.

I've seen literally hundreds. I guess Canada is dominated by Subarus(impossibruu)

Meant 1 FiST, I've seen a ton of FoSTs, even a red hellaflush one. I seriously would have chewed out the owner if he had been around. Why the hell would you hellaflush a FoST? WHYYYYYYY?

Literally pointless. That's a tragedy.

Not sure but when I test drove a FiST, it came to about $29k, CAD. I drove both and actually preferred the FiST. More fun to drive and throw around, IMO.
