    Everyone hating on these cars is ridiculous. I have a stage 2 and it’s great. Just because they’re common and ragged about a lot doesn’t mean they’re crap.

    I have a 2014 US Fiesta ST on stage two Cobb tune, short shift kit rear Cobb motor mount, 3” MBPR exhaust and many visual mods with sticky Michelin tires, and on my 6th set of tires at 96,000 miles, that’s how hard I drive it, my friends can’t believe I still have the stock clutch, I’m 73 years young and have had 14 cars & 9 Motorcycles, and by far this is the most fun I’ve ever had Driving, just like you, this car puts the biggest smile on my face every time I hit that start button it never gets old.

    they are perfect handling wise from the factory but, those factory suspension bushings don't last long.. as soon as they start going its all over and the front and rear shocks go all around the same time, 80 - 100k kilometers. you need powerflex bushings all round and best to have a set of good coilovers rather than replacing the shocks with the crappy genuine ones.
