I really don't have any desire to get the RS. It's a cool car, but definitely over-hyped. You can find 17's available for under MSRP now. They have some known problems and aren't responding to mods as well as people expected.

 

I had a Cobb tune on my Ecoboost Mustang and really only felt comfortable getting to about 360-370hp with the tune on stock components.

I'm wondering if people are expecting 400+ with new intercoolers, etc and not getting it.

It's too bad the RS is having issues, I love the idea of the car.

 

^ Boggles my co-worker's mind that I'd have an RS for a daily. His usual response is something to the extent of "But it's still just a Focus"

 

Oh damn.. I didn't know.
Yeah the marketing vids "drift mode" or whatever were fun to watch.
I wouldn't even mod it.. seems fun enough.

 

Not a car guy.. stop wasting the air in my zone douche.

 

Why don't you get one, Majofo?

 

An RS? Maybe one day.

 

He just doesn't get the practical sports car thing. Doesn't consider the ST/RS to fit in that group.

 

He doesn't know what he's missing

 

He's a truck guy, so it wouldn't even be on his radar.

 

New update coming soon

 

I've always liked the GTI. I'm in to see where this goes. Good job OP

 

 

Schweet!!!

 

Very nice! Excited to see the results.

 

you seem like a guy that would be excited to see another guy's end result.

 

I have to admit the mudflaps have me a little worried.

 

The OEM mud flaps look a lot better than the aftermarket sets. I had some damage on the Focus ST from running spacers and no mud flaps. I want to make sure that doesn't happen on this car and these are the best looking option.

 

Here's a pic of the damage on the ST. The tires must have kicked something up and caused this damage.

 

Got everything installed two days ago. I couldn't be happier with the drop! I'm at a finger gap in the front and a tight finger gap in the rear. I imagine they will settle a little more over the next couple of weeks and hopefully even out.

 

Wow, that looks really good! It's insane what just a small drop and spacers can do for almost any car. Looks real good!

 

Looks great...

 

Thanks, guys!

 

I'm not a fan of white, but that is a nice looking Vee Dub.

 

Perfecto!!!

 

Fucking A right...
love the look, Adam...no body roll...how you enjoying that DSG? Any ragrets about going auto?

 

Thanks! Ever since I had the white TL, I've had a hard on for white cars.

Thanks, Jeremy. I have zero regrets getting the DSG. It's so quick and efficient. There is no boost lost between gears so it has a constant pull when you're getting on it. You'll have to drive my car sometime.

 

Looks fantastic! Nice work.

 

I'd love to, man...
I'd let you drive mine too.
Barely any boost lost between gears either!

 

Lookin’ Clean Adam!

 

Looking good!

 

The more I read & see videos on how DSG performs ... it makes me want one.

 

Do it!

 

Until the S4 is done and I'm in a better financial position, a new-er car with DSG is not in the realm of possibility right now.

I like living vicariously through others!

 

You'd miss the feel of a big knob in that right hand. I know I'd miss the feel of a big knob in your right hand.

 

This.

Though the feeling of those clutches swapping in race mode is breathtaking. I drove the M3 with the DCT in the harshest setting at it felt like getting kicked by a horse when the gears changed.

 

You couldddddd get a new-er car with all the money you've been putting into the S4. Sell S4 and Fit.....

But then you will have car payments, and car payments suck!

 

Fuck that. Car payments are where it's at!
Wait, I have 2 paid off cars and a car payment! Am I win?

 

Yes!

You're ok..... Because you have 3 cars with 1 car payment.... or something.

 

or something
