Doug is the type of guy to fart in your wallet and later say he gave you gas money.
"This" is a joke i shouldn't have laughed at.
@@h.m4627 I didn't laugh until I saw your comment.! LOL
JxckC: HA!
Oh, I get it now. Like how Doug says “This...”

“There’s a strange gap, you can actually fit your finger in”
Okay mate...
😂😂😂😂😂
You can hide your weed in there.
LMAOOO
those phone sized gaps next to charging ports are a real mystery...…….
No modern phone is fitting into that gap, and if it does it's going to fly out at soon as you accelerate
@@novaerog9921 I have a Fiesta, my phone fits and stays perfectly fine. are you guys drag racing around the city or something?
@@novaerog9921some of the gaps are for some electronic displays in the British, Euro and Asian models about a decade ago.
The divot behind the shifter was to stash a 2010 era MP3, flipphone or iPod.
Why redesign the cheapest car's plastics when you can just leave useless blanks.
Remember all the blanks on the dash in the 60s fords to remind you that you were too cheap to buy the broken clock or other instrument
Ryan Oliver I have a Focus ST, and my phone flies out of the pocket thing in front of the shifter
look up dizzy ethenol gauge
MotorCraft is made by Ford my guy.
Kyle. Smith came here to say the same thing. How does a “car guy” like Doug not know this!?🤦🏼♂️
Well then maybe Doug is the kind of guy who thinks MotorCraft formed a partnership with Ford.
He's not as bright as he seems
LMAO
I only knew this because a guy always came to my shop insisting I use his Ford Motorcraft oil AND FILTER when I changed his oil. instead of what I had in my shop... what I had in my shop was probably the same shit as his Ford Motorcraft oil... looked like shit too.
Doug is the kind of person who looks at a cell phone sized "gap" with a handy charging port right beside it and can't figure out what you might put in it.
That is where I put my phone but he's right about the one in front of the shifter, it does nothing.
🤣😂🤣👍
Yeah, he often trips out on the most minute details to the point where logic goes out the window.
@@Icarus_Ridexx it's a perfect stash for my wallet
Icarus Ridexx I put my toy frog there
Doug said fiesta ST 47 times in this video
Payam yazdi I see you EVERYWHERE
Thank you, Payam yazdi, very cool
Daniel Semi yes just like God
Payam yazdi u sick fuck
Payam yazdi wow jaja
Doug: calls it a great used car deal, literally says nothing good about it. Says it a quick car, gives it a 2 on acceleration.
The acceleration score is linear, he has a scale for it. I forgot what video he says that in, but he doesn't choose where it falls lol
proto4747 it’s in his range rover video
Gotta remember that the acceleration scale includes cars like the Chiron, so that heavily skews his scale for cars like this.
It’s pretty quick in a track
@@mariog7213 Cars like this are about more than just straight line speed.
Ford does not cut the Fiesta.
America just does not get it seemingly.
Don't forget that they added the abominable ST-Line farce.
Because anyone in America that can afford a new car is getting a truck, crossover, or an SUV. We are bigger people with bigger roads and cheap gas lol
@@mattolson7146 yep just shows how our gluttony makes us seem dumb
@@mattolson7146 It's strange how the US car market is split by the 'drag racers' on one side where horsepower and straight line is everything and the circuit races who realise that a car has to be able to go fast 'and' go round corners too?
Americans have a terrible taste in cars. They only buy crap.
doug the kinda guy who thinks the spoiler was engineered to not hit the antenna, rather than the antenna was made the right length....
Brilliant
I was facepalming all the time.
The spoiler is small because you don't need to add down force to the rear of a FWD car, it's just there to look good (and not hit anything else). It would actually go imperceptibly faster without a spoiler due to the weight saving and reduced drag...
wiamoaw your so wrong
From playing Automation Tycoon I learned why FWD cars need rear spoilers.
Tunning a FWD car so it doesn't heavily understeer could cause instability at higher speeds (excessive oversteer), the spoiler is speed dependant, so it a bit of downforce in the rear keeps the wheels on the ground during high speed cornering.
Doug; the type of guy to call honeycomb a tire tread pattern.
This is the type of man that gets to review any car he wants, and has been for years, and still doesn't know that Motorcraft is Ford's brand...
I knew Motorcraft was a Ford brand since I was about 5. Yet Doug’s a ‘car expert’.
@@baddrivingsouthwales4789 I don’t think he feels that way. He’s a content creator, nothing complicated about it. It pays nice, so why not?
Everyone is like
Manual Fiesta: The best car you can buy.
Automatic Fiesta: the worst decision you could make.
💯
Exactly why I got a manual fiesta even tho it’s not a St
Completety different car and engine . The ST doesn't come with an automatic . And the automatic in the lower models and focus's is the the worst automated manual trans made . That's why . It's not about the entire car .
@@P4OE ya i have an automatic se and the thing is a piece of shit
@@P4OE The auto is only available on yhe 1.6, the ecoboost and ST are manual only
So I counted and Doug said:
Fiesta ST - 22 times
Focus ST - 9 times
Focus RS - 1 time
Wayne ah so the video sucks then
That’s a very Doug thing to do.
He said Motorcraft 5 times
Doug is the type of guy who does a book report over an owners manual
Charlie Watts lol
Haha
I would do the same
And fails because the spark notes he used failed to explain the motorcraft - Ford relationship.
@@jojawhand the failed sport mode by holding down that ESC button for 3-4 seconds. It does easy sport mode if you just "tap" the button. BUT, hold it down and VOILA....ZERO traction control at all. But he is right. That torque steering is a BYOTCH in 1st & 2nd.
Doug the type of person that searches the owners manual to see the “quirks and features”...
this is my fav so far
1 year later and this is hilarious.
Yeah. And doesn’t take a second to search this “mysterious” company motorcraft. Oh Doug. Never change.
When I worked at Ford, this was the most fun car I drove. Drove all mustangs up to the GT500, but this was the most fun. One of the few cars you can have fun in without breaking the law. I find it more fun than the Miata.
you thought this was more fun than a RWD supercharged V8 with supercar handling? in a cheap little fwd hatch? you are absolutely hilarious.
@@poppachoppa8956 "supercar handling" lmao, the last gen GT500s had no handling. You also missed the second half of my comment. You've obviously never driven either of these cars.
@@poppachoppa8956 youve never driven one obviously. I have and m2 CS, Wife Corvette Z06 and I love to drive my daughters Fiesta ST. So much fun. Top automotive journalists praise it and many bought it.

India ka naam roshan kr re ho😂😂
Dang Doug,,, you don't know that Motorcraft has been Ford's house brand for a thousand years ?
2packs4sure yes I was laughing at that also. mr. Know-it-all car guy didn't know that...lol
I remember Ford "Autolite" stuff then at some point early 70's ish it became Motorcraft for the most part and ever since.
Doug is a young guy, probably not a big Ford guy, and not turning his own wrenches anyway,,,,, so I forgive him.
Still seems weird to me though.......
Doug frustrates the hell out of me when he reviews "ordinary" cars from the 70's onward. He seems to always be amazed at things like headlight dimmer switches located on the floor. Like Motorcraft being synonymous with Ford - things car people just know.
That's true,,,,,, BUT, a huge percentage of his audience is even younger and MORE amazed than Doug is,,,,,,,,,,,,, so for them it's perfect.
For old 50 somethings like myself it seems silly but AS ALWAYS,,,,,,, OLD FIFTY SOMETHINGS LIKE ME ain't the target audience !!
Old fifty somethings are NEVER the damn target audience.
He drives a Ford GT. I think he might know
The "dot and dash" pattern on the top of the dashboard has a purpose: low road and cabin noise reflection.
They also tell an interesting story about the history of Ford if you can read Braille.
@@REDSIX not joking?
@@simpleinverso8628 really dude?
@@REDSIX I was reading the comments before watching the video so now that I saw it, i realized you were joking.
@@REDSIX Hey! I'm back, and i just realized how dumb i was!
2 positions for the “hood prop” doug? Really?? Hmm, look at the interesting shape of the prop there doug.
So infuriating seeing him misplace the hood prop both times. Its shaped that way so if a gust of wind comes it holds the hood in place and doesnt detach from the hood prob and fall on you troubleshooting on track or on the road if it ever will break down
Thank you! That annoyed the hell out of me.
Doug is the type of guy who doesn't know how a hood prop works. Lol.
Damn is that why they put two holes. Had no clue but figured it wasn't for two slightly different positions....
ikr
Motorcraft is owned by Ford. Took about 10 seconds of research to find that out. Keep up the good work, Doug.
Conrad Vx 😂😂😂 he’s a fucking idiot
@@hewasdeadwhenigotthere7109 Dude Fuck Off
@@trevorcollum6883 stfu shit colored fuck
@@hahahajackmyswag Kiss my indian ass
@@trevorcollum6883 Based
Doug, have you considered a non-linear scale for the acceleration score? For example:
Score: 0-60 time
10: less than 3.0 seconds
9 3.0 to 3.5 seconds
8: 3.6 to 4.2 seconds
7: 4.3 to 5.0 seconds
6: 5.1 to 5.9 seconds
5: 6.0 to 6.9 seconds
4: 7.0 to 8.0 seconds
3: 8.1 to 9.2 seconds
2: 9.3 to 10.5 seconds
1: greater than 10.5 seconds
As you can see, just increasing the length of the interval by .1 seconds for each lower score, you don't wind up with such an excessive bias toward straight-line performance, and allow for things like hot hatches to have scores to reflect how fast they feel, like this Fiesta ST.
For him a 7 second car which is super fast scores 1 🤣
darkmatter.99 7 is not super fast but okay
@@willferlandfaster than 90% of cars
@@v_stands_for_value124 Seven seconds 0-60 is pushing into exotic, or at least serious pony car territory from not that long ago. The 2016 Fiesta ST is faster 0-60 than a 1986 Camaro Iroc-Z or a 1986 Mustang GT, with a 1.6 liter I4 instead of a 5-liter V8, and straight line speed is NOT what the Fiesta ST is about. This little grocery getter can drive circles around those pony cars in the twisties.
@@lvbuckeye those are also
80s cars lolll.
Just bought mine last month for just over $15K (Taxes and title included) with the Recaro package and I love it! It's a blast to daily drive and so far has givin me Zero issues.
So good to hear someone who bought one for fun and daily driving and loved it. Think I'm sold
Do you plan to clean the intake valves every 35k miles? Since it's a direct injection motor. Most owners choose to pretend the problem doesnt exist
Wow I didn't knew the European Fiesta and the US Fiesta were that different. Since 2017 we got another Fiesta and Fiesta St and even before that our Fiesta Mk6 looked way different in the interior part as well.
You had it for a whole month and zero issues? Impressive.
@@pgo2372 i bought a used 2017 ford mustang ecoboost premium 3 months ago w 4k miles (7k now) for 23k and it has absolutely no issues at all so idk what you mean lmao
I have one. This is an absolute masterpiece of a car and ridiculous amounts of fun. I can't image ever selling it.
The power and torque is incredible for such a small light car. Totally intoxicating if you've come from something with
Amen. I don't see myself ever selling my Bean either. ❤
Uhh Doug, Motorcraft is Ford’s internal parts decision, like AC Delco is to GM.
AfterDark3 was about to comment that i thought ford owned motorcraft
Yeah, This.. Doug should know this.
I mean its kinda obvious when every part in the manual is “we recommend motorcraft XXXX for your ford”. Take the hint.
Exactly what I wanted to say...he should know that kind of stuff...
Doug's dipshittery knows no bounds.
Doug missed one quirk: if you keep the ESC button pressed for 5 seconds you go into the most aggressive mode with the electronic aids turned fully off. Also, the gap above the glove box is not meaningless, in the dark you'd notice it projects downwards soft red light to help you find your balls or whatever. It's actually a quite nice feature.
I'm sure he missed more than one, but thanks for sharing (thats why Dougs comment section is great - you learn from people who actually KNOW the car!)
...and own :D
Configurable ambient lighting in a $15,000 car with a manual and 197hp and a little cargo space. Well I'm sold.
You also get a better infotainment screen in this $15k subcompact than what you'd get in a Cadillac that costs almost 10 times as much.
after you drive it, hear all the creaking and feel the quality of a mcdonalds dollar menu item you feel taken advantage of and manipulated by a car salesman and Fords marketing - the car is seriously trash
@@bellaollie2037 That's going to be the case. The suspension, motor and manual trans are what make the Fiesta ST special. The interior is obviously hardly better than the regular fiesta because the FiST is still an economy car. It's all about driving experience and it truly delivers there. It's the most fun car I've ever driven. Good gas mileage when you want it and rotates like a RWD car in corners. As a daily, I'd take it over my homies S550 Mustang GT performance.
I bought a 2015 FiST in February. Did a couple quick mods. I've owned a 1994 Taurus SHO, 2001 Mustang (which I did A LOT of engine and suspension work to), and other "fun" cars, but the FiST is the most fun car I've owned. I bought it as a daily driver to go to/from work, and I get a smile every day I drive it. I'm also 40 years old and 6'4" tall...

Great now the st is gonna shoot up to 20k
its crazy how the turbo 4s now make more power than the old iron 300ci motors of the late 90s muscle cars (camaro mustang) could barely make 140hp up to 270 max out.
Turbos used to put about 10 to 12 psi into an engine. But with the advent of modern computer controls, the Fiesta ST pressurizes up to 22 psi. That works out to the same count of O2 molecules as a 4.0L engine in the lower revs, which explains all that great torque.
@@HollywoodF1 "the same count of O2 molecules"
thats just because of emissions. There were factory 500 hp muscle cars in the 60- 70s
@@joey9511 not naturally aspirated, which I assume is the comparison made. There were some 60s-70s vehicles with big blocks that had ~500 ft/lbs of torque, but very few engines that could rev out far enough to make those 500hp without a supercharger.
Bought a 2019 this past summer. Haven't stopped smiling since.
The biggest problem with these cars, I have a 2015 that I bought new, is the paint is incredibly cheap. After a few months of owning it I had a few noticeable rock chips. Had them fixed and had a clear bra put in the hood, front bumper, and fenders. It's a worthwhile purchase, highly recommended
I picked up a 2018 in Orange Spice with the leather Recaros. LOVE it and wish I had bought it sooner!
Do these cars require premium fuel?
@@emmcee476 They run better on premium, but they can also run on regular octane. The computer will adjust the timing automatically to compensate. Just less power.

How much did they pay Ford tho?
@@CouchMan88 0. That guy who Doug mentioned as the brains of asking Ford to put Motorcraft in the book got fired after being shown the Motorcraft Wikipedia page

20:07 was in reference to comparing the focus st and the fiesta st.

Completely different points.

20:32 he was comparing fiesta to all the rest
So you really didnt understand
different contexts you brainless turd
Doug, the kind of guy who doesn’t google “motor craft” Demuro
Right!?
Maybe he can email them at infokr(at)ford(dot)com
I actually lost a little respect for Doug on this one. If he doesn't know who Motorcraft is, I have to start questioning what he does know. It basically puts everything he says into question for me..
I wonder if he knows about Mopar.
He didn't know but he does now. Must we beat him up over it?
"you can actually stick your finger in there" *doug demuro 2018*
“It seems like such an odd place for that”
The worst part is that he said it months after the "metoo" thing.
lmao
Ford owns motorcraft....
8:57 - Doug you spent almost a minute talking about this! Ford owns motorcraft
I was waiting for someone to break it to him
The hood prop holes only provide one position - you're supposed to slide the hook in the upper hole and then guide the bend into the lower hole. Ford's done this for years.
Heh, fancy seeing you here!
BINGO! Was looking for this comment.
Doug was really reaching for content
You're absolutely right. By design, the hook at the end of the prop rod will grab the center piece between the prop holes and keep the hood from disengaging from the rod in the event of a gust of wind, thus eliminating the chance of getting a "hood on the head" :)
Wait, really? I wanna go check my Fusion now; maybe it's similar and I have to fill up the wiper fluid, anyway.
EDIT: Nope, my particular Fusion has a different propping mechanism; it's just a plastic thing on a metal stick and a hole the same shape as the plastic thing.
Doesn’t realize Motorcraft is a Ford brand...
The Car Crazy Guy up you go 🤣
I seriously can't watch doug's videos anymore. Even if he for some reason doesn't know that motorcraft is ford, a simple internet search would reveal this. Doug has no common sense
Yea what the hell lol
And he gets a lower spec to review smh
I think he knows but feigns ignorance to make the joke. He knows far too much about cars to not know that.
Hey Doug Ford owns Motorcraft
I actually like fords entrance chime
Isn’t Motorcraft Ford’s own brand?
Dmitry L yes
Yup - I think Doug's been spending too much time with 6-figure fancy cars, Dmitry!!!
*Facepalm
Yes, Doug actually isn't a car guy, which is why he specializes in radio buttons and storage bins.
Alexander Coburg and **QUIRKS AND FEATURES**
Motorcraft is Ford
Came here to say this.
12:20 Honestly the Ford chime is more calming and less repetitive to me than the typical "ding ding ding ding"
The main selling point? Seeing Doug smile and laugh as he hoons the Fiesta ST! Lol
Doug is the type of guy who blows on his Hot Cheetos before consuming them.
Soo who's gonna tell Doug about motorcraft and ford?? Lol
I will!
Dear Doug,
Motorcraft is owned by Ford.
Sincerely,

P.S.
Please make shorter videos.
12:23 I like that sound it gives me memories of when my mom owned a 2013 Ford Fusion
I actually love this car. Its beautiful, especially in white color!
The dots and dashes on the dashboard are actually Morse Code, they tell you in great detail how to activate the extra 75 HP from the engine.
Doug, Motorcraft has been Ford's parts division name since the 1950s. I'm rather surprised you didn't know this. It's pretty common knowledge to car guys.
Joey D right!! I was shocked too
Joey D not since 2005 or something. FoMoCo ring a bell?
Alex Gunner FoMoCo is literally sorry for Ford Motor Company. Motorcraft is Ford's part division. I've owned multiple Ford's and Lincoln's, the oldest dating to 1994 and only really saw FoMoCo on the door seal stickers and the glass. Where as if you open the hood on just about any Ford on the road you'll see motorcraft all over.
..... and Mopar is probably in cahoots with Chrysler. C'mon Dougie!
FoMoCo is short for Ford Motor Company. That’s all.
Motorcraft is Ford’s parts division. Has been since the late 1950s. Google ain’t just your friend - it keeps you from sounding foolish on public forums.
For a car enthusiast, Doug doesn't know much about automotive industry. Doug is THAT type of guy.
Doug the type of guy to review every single subcompact car except the Honda Fit
Motorcraft is the Ford version of Mopar.
Zzyzx Wolfe Right? What did he expect them to recommend? Toyota cleaning products?
He's spent so much time in high-end cars he's never heard of plebian brands like "Motorcraft", lol.
At first I thought he was joking, but then I realized that he probably doesn’t know that Motorcraft is Ford’s label.
What kind of a "car guy" is he if he doesn't know Motorcraft is Ford?
He's not a car guy. He's a damn journalist that just happened to fall into car reviews. No one with a brain would even consider Doug DeMuro to be a car guy, which is why Doug thinks he's a car guy. The man is a fucking moron.
Doug you gave the fiat abarth a 10 on value. Dude nobody on earth has owned one of those cars for more than 2 years.
ndgo A friend of mine has had his for almost 4 so far. 😁
Naptown Wicked that’s like 1/10000 😂
My brother bought a 2013 Ford Fiesta SE five years ago brand new for $18,000. He still has it and he loves it, and he hasn't had any major problems with it other than the door latch issue Ford recalled on these cars.
How TF you rate a Abarth 500 Above a Fiesta ST? My friend used to own an Abarth 500 and I have owned 2 Fiesta ST's. I drove his car and he drove mine. He agreed the Fiesta is better. So does everyone else in the world. I think you need to revisit the Fiesta ST on a back road Doug. A 6 for handling? Come on. And yeah Fiat has no resale value, my friend got rid of his Abarth in less than a year. Only thing the Fiat does better is exhaust.
I think the fiat abarth should get a 3 of 10 because you get the ultimatum of plastic junk that always breaks with those, granted though they may be fun to drive.
When he mentioned the owners manual. I was thinking Scotty Kilmer talking about Doug selling wireless speakers😂
I love my fiST. Greatest bargain car and loads of fun to drive.
Doug....you disappoint me...Motorcraft....is FORD Motorcraft parts and accessories. Ford's in house company.
Ryan Snyder I was going to say , Doug being a car guy should know motorcaft is ford
“In-house” should be hyphenated, nitpicker.
peaceandllov boo
Yeah that's a huge cringe moment. It's pretty obvious Motorcraft is a division of Ford.
I love Doug but that was like Ford 101 right here and he blew it. 🤦♂️
Doug the type of guy that can make us all watch a used fiesta review
Shmee DeMuro your profile pic and channel name... everyday we stray further from God
Shame you can't do the next fiesta in Britain. I think you'd like it
I don't often disagree with Doug, but I've driven both the Fiesta ST and a Focus ST and the Fiesta ST is WAY more fun and still reasonably practical. I never understood why people (usually old people) will say "x car is more car for the money" because I don't want more car, I want the right amount of car. The Focus ST feels a lot less willing to be hustled around a winding road than the Fiesta ST even though on paper they can pull the same G on the skidpad. I think it's mostly due to the longer wheelbase of the Focus.
The FiST is smaller. It corners better because it has a shorter wheelbase and weighs 500 lbs. less. The suspension is tuned to make it break the rear loose when you want it.
The FoST is better for people who need a bigger car, but it can't match the FiST on a twisty road. Physics.
Doug the type of guy to make random CZcams accounts and make "Doug the type of guy..." comments on his own videos.
Is this one of them?
From Chiron to Fiesta, my how far Doug has fallen
For the price of one Chiron you can buy 200 Fiestas
Jeff Boski really far😂😂😂😂😂
don't worry, he'll be back next week with a huayra or one of those 90's Aston Martins from before they did the 'wide mouth bass' grille that everyone stole.
Fiesta is real car. Around 10-15% people of whole world can buy it, ease or not very, new for now, or after 10-15 years for 3000-5000$, but can. Things like Chiron is just Toy for ≈ 0.01 % people. Its not a car of real world
DOUG APPRECIATES ALL VEHICLES
Here I am, three years later and watching again. And I still don't know how Doug didn't know Motorcraft is Ford.
this man literally dug into the owner's manual to find quirks.
this type of dedication deserves some sort of oscar, or grammy, or nobel prize or something.
Gap under the park brake is for you to put the fob at while driving if you aren't putting it in the center console cubby
Flash I didn’t know that! And I’ve had mine for 3 years lmao
Man both of your fiestas are sexy!
Doug's going to get roasted on his lack of OEM brand knowledge
This! ...and not knowing what T RST (trip reset) meens on a Lagonda
even I knew what it meant... and I'm not old enough to drive!
I like how Doug assumes they engineered the spoiler around the antenna instead of just assuming they put the antenna as far back as they could without touching
Beat me to it, though I'm a bit surprised that they didn't just do that mini shark fin antenna that you see on so many cars now.
I don't care what anyone says... Getting in or out of a ford and hearing that beautiful chime is the most satisfying thing ever
Doug the type of guy to put the price of every car he reviews in the title of the video
Not every title. lol.
ChaosPxl but almost
JP B lol gotta get that clickbait
Lol
well he does work for autotrader, makes sense to know the prices right? :))
Lets have a moment of quiet for the passing of Ford's car division.
Still doing fine in Europe.
Lol, they'll be back. Once gas prices inevitably skyrocket they'll be desperately scrambling in their parts bin for compact cars and sedans. Very dumb move by Ford to single-handedly give the sedan market to the Japanese. Hell, the Fusion sold 200,000 units last year I heard. Anyway, I can't _wait_ until this SUV/crossover trend dies.
same lol
ThreePointSlow
The SUV trend has a good side-effect though: You get to feel more special cause you're *not* in an SUV :D
Those things still exist, just not on the US market.
12:17 For me, that Ford chime is seriously nostalgic
Doug's that dude that got real upset when he learned you didn't have color-coded folders for your homework in high school.
Isn't Motorcraft a Ford brand that's been around since at least the 80s??
Ford itself launched the brand in 1972.
Ford is one of the only companies to never have gone bankrupt, sell out to other conglomerates, or need a government bailout to sustain the company.
I thought that same thing. Then I searched the comments to make sure I wasn't crazy. Thank you sir for the validation haha
That one must be a 2017 or 2018 for two reasons. The gap above the glovebox used to have ambient lighting come out of it until 2016; that was it's ultimate purpose since the Fiesta came to the states in 2010, but they dropped it because people were complaining that it reflected on the passenger door window. And my 2016 doesn't have the wind deflector by the side mirrors.
The storage space between the cupholder and shifter is actually handy for small stuff, but the one by the dash is useless as you noted. My arm actually doesn't hit the armrest when I shift so it really depends on your body type.
I believe the early years of the Fiesta ST had the antenna actually hit the spoiler (as evidenced by this video czcams.com/video/_0ouYzXp96U/video.html ). I'm sure they shortened the antenna rather than changing the spoiler design.
Motorocraft is Ford OEM.
You missed out on the factory option Recaro seats. They change the car completely in the corners in my opinion.
I have a 2014 and the antenna doesn't hit the spoiler. Maybe a couple ST's went out with too long of antennas in 2014, interesting.
It’s not a 2018. My 2018 has a backup camera since they are standard for the 2018 model year after being federally mandated. Must be a 2017?
Tom Harkins it says in the description its a 2017
Early e-brake was also in different position, higher on dash, to left of shifter
You nailed every point I wanted to hit. Thank you!
Also, besides the description, That was a SYNC 3 infotainment system, released in 2017.
The Fiesta ST is just amazing i drove the Focus ST and it was fast but its not as fun to drive. Idk if its because of the weight and size or what but something about the Fiesta ST just makes driving anywhere seem like a track. Happy with my little pocket rocket. Bought mine for 18k brand new tuxedo black with black rims and red brake calipers and I still feel like i made the right decision every time I get behind the wheel. Get a cobb access port and you wont regret it.
The whole Motorcraft fiasco makes me think Doug isn't the car guy I thought he was. C'mon millennial man!
I recently watched him discover the concept of an embedded rear window defroster grid. If i remember correctly he was reviewing the Aston Martin Lagonda
Wait.... a Turo video where he doesn't laugh about the car throughout the whole video?
are you okay Doug?
Also, no white undershirt under a t shirt on a hot day.
What's wrong with Doug? Is he okay?
Someone get him a Fiat Multipla FAST!
3:58 the engineers made it so the AC knobs and that awkward hole below make a face while the shifter looks like a dong so it looks like you're giving a handy to a very ecstatic dude.
Doug the type of guy with a cousin named Throckmorton.
Thanks Doug! I'm taking delivery of my first sports car.... 2019 Fiesta ST. You introduced this car to me. Thank you
Should of got a mustang instead if your going ford
Focus st owner here...these are really really good cars
Same, fell in love first drive. Small cars with lots of grip that get 35 mpg
it is absolute garbage
alex, stop driving mommy and daddys car, and buy one for yourself
2007 Focus se owner...junk
I have a Mercedes C43 AMG and it is WAY better than this car.
Ford will cancel the sell of cars, but only in America. In Europe you‘ll still get a Ford Fiesta, Focus etc.
Grünkohlaktionär of course
Thank god.Also i dont get why Americans lie SUVs so much.
Previous fiesta st is better than the new one
They may also be keeping their cars in Canada aswell... As a Canadian i surely hope they do!
Andrei Sava we don't. But the mom's and oldies are the bulk of our market
doug the kinda dude to finger a fiesta gauge gap and not apologize, even once.
When you were talking about the lock button and said lock 10 times in 20 seconds I almost threw my iPad across the room
Imagine if Doug started bashing FCA for telling its owners about MOPAR car care products in the Jeep Wrangler Owner's Manual, and then he says "What did MOPAR pay Jeep in order to be mentioned on Page 425 of the owner's manual in small print?"
I felt pitiful with how quickly I clicked this notification.
Don't be. You're not the only one
Same here even the car pic was boring
Sheldon Gunby you should feel worse for your choice of anime
lol
Don’t... it’s perfect. An M3 or R8, M5, G90, Bentley etc. is a lot of money to shell out and they depreciate a lot.
Turo: you can rent cool quirky cars instead of boring rental cars
Doug: imma take the fiesta
Bro, Motorcraft is Ford's house brand. Also, no one buying a Fiesta ST gives a shit about the back seats or anything other than the performance.
Lindsey Ormsbee The back seats are fine anyways
well I mean, they're there. Might as well talk about em.
Poor Doug. Motorcraft is owned by Ford. It's Ford parts and accessories division.
_"What do you think 'Motorcraft Detail Wash' paid Ford in order to be mentioned..."_
I'm sure Motorcraft paid nothing.
Ford owns Motorcraft.
"Nah I'm gonna show em! I'm gonna get a Ford Performance owner's manual pouch!" 😂
Doug the type of guy to read the entire owner's manual of every car he reviews.
