I wonder if I should just have it flat bedded to my house

When I bought my BRZ I trailered it with a car cover home. Nothing wrong with that.

Nice! Envy Green and it would be perfection but I guess your wife would get Isuzu PTSD. Also, that looks like Race Red in that picture. Molten Orange is an awesome colour though.

[Mibz]

Red, wtf

[xnvy]

I'm pretty sure it's Molten Orange based on the corner of the bumper where the sun is hitting it.

EDIT: Me and a bruh just chilling.

^ you sold your Miata?

[xnvy]

Nope. Still got it. Just got annoyed at not having a car in winter so I blew all my money on a Fiesta

I lucked out. I got an epic deal on a Fiesta Ecoboost because nobody wants to buy them because they only come with the manual. And apparently nobody likes green. That said, no big purchases for the next 2 years

You can get a fiesta SE with the 1.0 ecoboost option

nice one man! I'm loving the green. And sugarphreaks molten orange? Is really nice as well.

^Thanks man!

The car is awesome. This break in period is annoying though. It says to shift earlier than the car indicates for the first 1,500 km except that car wants me to shift at 2,500 RPM and the car starts moving at ~1,300 RPM. I'm totally not used to it either considering I up shift in the Miata at 4,000 RPM. Despite the fact that I'm still adjusting to this car, I'm somehow getting 8L/100km. I had it down to 7.7L/100KM for a bit. 800+ km to a tank, it's so sweet!

Eff that, I drove my car as I intend to drive it from day 1 lol, when I'm stuck in traffic or commuting I'll shift around 2-2.5k though.

Commuting I average 6-6.5L/100kms, weekends that goes closer to 7.5

The gearing is super tall. It's never going to be competitive at autocross because of that. The car has lots of torque for it's displacement but it takes a while for the car to wake up. That said, it handles really nicely and is a ton of fun. I don't think I'll be autocrossing this car because I still have the Miata, if I didn't, I probably would. I might try it out for the Ice Cup that CSCC runs though. Depends how the winter driving school goes.

EDIT: I'd just like to add that this car sounds amazing. It's super quiet and you can only really hear it when you're alone in a parkade with the windows down but it sounds like half a 90's BMW. If you listen close enough you can hear the little recirculating valve or whatever let go of the boost. It sounds like a baby turbo. My friend described the sound as "adorable" when compared to her WRX.

I know. It could be worse though. That is the sole reason I didn't get a Mazda 2 even though I would have gotten an even more ridiculous deal on it.

How long ago did you get the Fiesta from Woodridge? I may have detailed your car for delivery. Did one 2-3 weeks ago.

EDIT: It was yours.
