Wash, I was thinking the same thing as soon as he pointed out that out in the video. All-black interior would look pretty sweet.

My dealer told me the auto-dimming mirror had been moved to the Recaro package. Not sure how true that is...

Do the Recaros in the ST eat into rear seat room like they do in the Focus?

Thank you sir. But I live in central Florida. So for me, it is just high bolstered seats.

From what I have noticed, other cars that offer Recaros as an option usually charge about the same, or more, for the seats. If you buy them aftermarket, you can easily spend $2k on just the front seats alone through Ford Racing or getting a Sparco/Recaro aftermarket seat.

Some cars offers Recaro's standard, but they're quite a bit more than $24,000. I've sat in the regular Fiesta and Focus seats - you get what you pay for.

The base Fiesta ST seats are the same as the non-ST Fiesta seats. See this thread:

StateFarm quoted me the same price as for a Titanium, but they said they had 'no data' on the ST. My guess is, even if I'm lucky, once a few idiots wrap them around poles my rates will go up. Auto insurance rates are certainly a mystery to most people, but it's always the cheap, fast cars that have the highest rates.
