That's awesome. I got to sit in an ST3 a while back. Great looking exterior, comfortable interior, and the owner liked it so much that he traded his Z4 in on it.


I drove an ST2 and loved it, but I'd be looking for an ST3. I don't see why they aren't more popular, it's so much fun and totally practical.

Because the average car buyer wants a boring and impractical car, which is a shame. Are WRX's popular though? I'm guessing ST's don't fly off dealer lots there because it isn't AWD, which is probably valued more than it is down here in the Carolinas.

I see quite a few WRXs up here but in my opinion they don't have the look I want, and they can be optioned to be a bit more expensive so I don't think it's worth it. An ST3 fully loaded maxes out at like 30k, and when the '15 hits dealers I assume the price will drop on the '14s. I drive a FWD car in the snow now, granted it's a lot less powerful and torquey, and I get around, but with a set of Blizzaks I think it'll be just fine in the snow.

Dodge Neon lol. sh*t but it was free and it works so that's fine for me. But I've saved up enough to put a down payment on a Focus ST and will be starting my job in May so I'll be able to have it. Can't wait!

Do you want to break down on the side of the road or have constant recalls on your car? I think not. There are WAYY better options. Poor taste in cars
