My grandfather owned a ford dealership, but the FiST was my first Ford. I know he'd be proud (and possibly give me a slap for taking so long) [thumb]

It's probably like my 15 ford. 1st one was a 91 probe then a 95 probe gt then an 89 probe GT (turbo) then various cars but most probe in between. Last ford I owned before the FiST was a 99 Cougar with a 3L swap.

This is my fourth Ford. I had a 94 Mazda B3000 (technically a Ford Ranger), a 2002 Focus ZX5, a 2006 Focus ST, and now my 2015 FiST. Aside from the Chevy Celebrity I was given in high school and the Toyota Camry I bought to drive while I turned my Mazda into a mini truck, I've always driven Fords.

This is my first Ford. My dad was big into F150's but recently switched over to Toyota trucks for some reason. I was more into German cars growing up and still own a VW GLI as my other car. I got sick of paying German maintenance prices all the time, so I started to look into other brands and got a miata. I just traded the miata in for the Fiesta for practicality reason. From now on, I'll follow whatever brands that make cars more driver enthusiast focused. Right now, Mazda and Ford seem to be the only ones trying to play that game while the rest are just making cars bigger and cushier.

It was my first Ford. I'm a huge Toyota fan and have always had one or a few in the family. Actually used to give my friends with Fords crap about owning one and would always tell them to call me when it broke down. Now they all give me crap haha

The Fiesta ST is my first Ford and domestic market car. I was brought up in the Honda/Acura and Nissan camp, then switched to AUDI, Porsche, and VW. The FiST got such rave reviews and the design caught my eyes. Decided to take the plunge and have not regretted it! Great car!

My first that I bought was a Focus ST, but I really didn't like it and only had it for like 4 months, and the Fiesta ST is the second that I've personally bought. My wife drove an Escape way back in the day when we met and we had that until a bit after we were married so I guess that sorta counts too. I did have a Mazda 626 way back when as well and that used a Ford motor so in a roundabout way, that kind of counts... maybe?

Not my first... Grandfather retired as general foreman at the now shuttered Lima, OH plant after 35 years. That said I've not personally bought many Fords till now. My first car was an 86 Lincoln Mark VII. When I met my wife she had a plastic fantastic 05 Focus that I drove into the ground to save mileage on my WRX. After the kids came I bought my wife a Flex SEL Ecoboost. After I sold my WRX I was looking to either go big to help with driving my kids around or go really small for fuel efficiency and space. I went small... but I don't buy cars that aren't fun so I zeroed in on the Fiesta ST from the time it came out. I waited a year while on assignment to Korea to get my ST. It's an awesome car... Other than the ghost in shell climate control and a sensor/moisture issue I'm having from wrenching on it.

This is my first Ford, and first FWD I actually chose to drive. Up until now I have been mainly into Nissan's but Ghosen has made them one of the dullest car companies around, anything past 2000 lost its soul.

I've had three VW GTI's and an Abarth. My 16' Fist is my first Ford. Never would have pictured myself owning one but loving this car so far.

My family and I always went with Japanese or German cars. I still own a Lexus for reliability just in case. Fords big in the rally scene and got good reviews for the last couple years so decided to try it out. I'm at around 1700miles on my 16 FiST and I love this car.

I forgot that I was in a young crowd here. I remember my Dad's 56 Mercury. My wife had a Pinto when I married her. A couple of Taurus wagons and a Windstar van. Wife has a C-Max now and I've got the Fist. First time since 81 that there hasn't been a Toyota around.
