I did want a Fiesta ST, but there are a few problems with it.
1. They are selling for more than MSRP just like the BRZ/FRS when it came out.
2. Reliability and Consumer Reports quality ratings and reviews are poor.
3. It costs $15,000 more than my Mazda 2.

I daily drove a lowered car with race springs and exhaust for almost three years so I know what to expect.

I don't plan for this to be a daily driver anyways. As it is now, I only drive it once or twice a week. It will be an emergency second car if the actual daily breaks down and it will be an autox car.

My wife and I are using a Honda Fit as a daily driver. We are trying to save up for a Subaru Outback to tow our JetSki and SeaDoo. We also want the Outback for safer driving in the winter, mountain trips, and long road trips.
