Molten orange was the color I was 100% set for until I started seeing pictures of it that it actually looks more red than orange. I was expecting it to look like the color of my avatar. I guess I have to wait to see it in person before I make a decision.

sounds like you enjoyed the car! As for the dual floor, it took some wiggling back and forth to get it to sit down properly. I don't know what keeps it up. Once wiggled into place, it sits on the top of the tire and is basically the same height as my 2011 floor. What sucks is the opening between the back seats and the floor part. I lose papers, small groceries, and who knows what else under the back seat. I will fix it by getting the rear floor parts out of a 2011-2013 car. Probably the center console as well.

As for the Titanium, much like the Focus Ti and ST, the ST gets less features to keep the cost down. As it is today, the internet is full of trolls who whine the ST is just too darn expensive. I call crap on that since the ST starting price is about the same as my 2011 Fiesta was. A ST3 option package with some of the Ti features would be nice for those of us who don't mind shelling out more coin on a small car. Self dimming mirror, HID head lamps, back-up camera, overhead storage, and the nicer handbrake handle from the EU car. I can live without those things, but if available, I would go for them. Oddly, I have fallen in love with the cloth Recaro seats and no longer want leather Recaro's. They hold me in better than leather, which is more important that looks.
I thought the only Recaro option it comes with is partial leather? The standard cloth seats aren't Recaro are they?

For those of you that think you may not like the molten orange because it's too red in the pictures, here's a slightly better representation of what it looks like in the sun. The only thing with this video is you can't really see much of the metallic flake, but the orange is more apparent.

One more thing I thought of to review the Fiesta on, the brakes stop pretty well. I wasn't slamming the brakes on or anything, but just slowing and stopping for a stop sign I noticed they grabbed pretty well. They should perform good in a track environment.

I'm headed to the Ecoboost Challenge this Saturday so I'll post up more pictures probably and a review on the handling aspect since I didn't really touch on that with a mainly highway test drive.
Much better! Looks amazing. Thanks for sharing
