Never understood the big wheel trends. Always preferred fat rubber. I hated the 20's that came on my Camaro. I think on the ST I'll be going with 16's. I'd even go down to a 15 but I am assuming most 15's will have issues with the calipers?

If I could change something about the Fiesta, I'd reduce the height, and widen it. Try and reduce the baby shoe effect.

I have about 350 Green Envy Fiesta ST photo's....(Out of about 1,400 Fiesta ST photo's in total) That I've hoarded from the web... (Having a digital art background, I am a massive "reference image" hoarder...I stockpile thousands upon thousands of photo's of everything of interest... haha)

I am just hesitant to post up because I don't want to step on any toes or irritate anyone... posting up photo's of their cars without permission.. And not a chance that I am going to try and figure out who I grabbed them all from.. lol Between random google, forums, fiesta movement, fiesta agents, twitters, flickrs, photo buckets...instagram etc...

Can't wait to get my car so I can post up a bunch of my own.

I was initially under the impression that the Green was definitely going to stand out on the road out here... Not a lot of bright green cars...

But I did joke a bit with my GF when I ordered, about how one of these days... someone is going to try and get into my car thinking I am a taxi driver..
(partly an inside joke) but partly also because locally this new Taxi company started up and decided that small green 4 door (I think that's a prius?) would be their primary vehicle of choice.

The green is actually pretty similar to that on the Fiesta ST... except that it doesn't have the metallic flake in it...

Anyway, they seem to be expanding significantly lately and am seeing these green hatchbacks everywhere now... And they just happen to be based not far from my neighborhood.



Obviously they look nothing a like, but.... To a drunk person Friday/Saturday night... They're just going to be looking for a little bright green car. lol
Hope I don't come back to find drool & face prints on my windows anytime I park outside of a pub.

On the upside... +1 to stealth?

Where the heck are the Green owner's? Where'd this thread go? lol.

Only reason I haven' posted much in here, is because I tend to throw my photo's up in my own thread... And I don't want to be a whore double posting every time.

But are there no other Green folk with Camera's ?

Spread the Green! :D:troll::wacky::wideyed::rotfl::greedy::grumpy::hungover::meh:

Yeah.. Undoubtedly metallic. You really have to see it in person. No matter what photo you see, it is not going to translate the same. I've taken so many photo's of my car, and the paint probably looks different in every single photo.

There are plenty of regular '14 Fiesta's in Green Envy. It is also the same paint as the Gotta have it green on the Mustangs. Keep your eyes peeled for either of those, and you can check out the paint in person.

Strongly advise doing so in the morning/afternoon on a sunny/clear day. A cloudy day or in the shade/night/dark.... Is not going to illustrate what you have to look forward to.

It doesn't give off the same metallic look without the light hitting it. It still stands out, but the flake is not all that noticeable on those kind of days.

Not the same Green though as the Focus RS.

I would have preferred that Green. But I am glad I was able to choose Green at all. Love it.
