Completely off topic and has nothing to do with Gatewars, but....

Dude, I am totally stoked right now. Just bought and drove home a 2013 Focus ST, w00t! No hating.

Not sure if it's sadder that you made time to post this about your life, or you actually posted this to people on the forum because you have no friends in RL or other places than sgw to brag about it to. Don't you have facebook and a hoard of 'friends' that you added but have no idea who they are?

That is quite an observation. Believe what you will. And I know everyone in my FB friends list, don't know what you are on about there.

Also, just because you drive a beat up civic doesn't mean you gotta go hating on others. Jealous much?

*chuckles* You should not slam your fist into solid metal, **Filtered**. ;) Sol's car is legendary.

Congrats, I can imagine being stoked with that, looks like a nice vehicle. :D (Pic in spoiler for people who do not Google things, hehe.)

I was just trying to add some activity to the forum. The car is really nothing to brag about, it is a focus. The one in the pic is the color I got too. You can move the thread if you want.

Meh, can't say I was overly blown away with jealousy. Other than just having a new car not much to be jealous about. Never liked the Focus ST mainly because it's got the same problem most hot hatches come with. A huge amount of power going through the front wheels.

Personally for that money I would've gotten a basic BMW 125i which other than not having the turbocharger would probably be more fun because it's RWD.

But enjoy your new car and welcome to the internet where people hate your happiness :smt050

Thanks guys. It actually produces 250 ft/lb of torque, the overboost feature will bring it to 270 ft/lb.
Torque steer doesn't seem to be a problem. I got the hatch because I was tired of my sedan. Easier to move stuff with a hatch. Also it has a bunch of tech goodies, granted some of them I will never use. It is rated at 23/32 MPG which is close to the same as my other Focus that pushed a little more than half the current Focus HP. And yup, in the states here.
