First new car I’ve purchased!

[MegSalad]

2 weeks ago I traded in my 2015 fiesta SE for a brand new 2019 black ST! It’s the first car I bought all by myself! I have wanted one for so long, it’s always felt so unattainable to get one. Considering it’s the first manual car I’ve owned and second, I didn’t think I could ever afford it. But, I found a great job and it has allowed me to get one. I love it so much. I already have almost 600 miles on it. I have a blast driving it everyday and it puts a big smile on my face every time I see it. The only thing I’ve been able to buy so far for it is the drop in air filter from Mountune which is in the mail right now. So glad I happened across this forum today. It’s so awesome seeing everybody’s ST’s and I hope to make some friends!

Congrats on your first new car. I take it 2019 is the last year of the ST? I've had my 2016 for about a month now and I can't wait for spring so I can take off the snow tires.

All of the dealers may have ordered them for stock with that option (a $450.00 one at that), but no, the Rado gray wheels are the standard deal.

Welcome and I upgraded from a Fiesta SE to a ST too. Such a difference in drivability.
