Picked up the ST this afternoon and put about 75 miles on it.
White is a great color for the ST badges.
The transmission is the best I have worked. Better than my '13 SE Focus
Ride is firm but not trashy or loose. Just very firm.
Noise is only there when you want it to be, otherwise it is as quiet as my '11 SES.
Handling is progressive and never ending. Not razor sharp but just ever progressively stable and flat.
Speed can build as fast as you want it to. Sneaky fast or just plain hard.
Did I say this thing handles like nothing else.
Plain seats are firm and yes lack the side support you need with this car, but I am just too big for the Recaros.
WHAT A RIDE.
