I hated the seats... I had to remove the lower plastic bolsters but even after it was still too tight. The rake was awful! I was 5'10" 230 at the time. Another thing that killed me and I could not get past it was the steering wheel is NOT centered on the driver seat.... its actually offset to the left like 1". Annoying asf sorry Ford. And one more thing, the top end was DEAD... I mean past 4k rpm no body was home. I think with a larger turbo the powerband would be more fun. Other than that the car is very agile, very quick in and out of corners. Had HKS ssqv old school bov, awe exhaust and cobb 93 tune (huge torque gain ~50flbs+).
It builds and builds and then it falls on its face! IT is way happy in the low to mid RPM range for sure. I've seen a few with bigger turbos and everyone says that how it should have been. I am getting it out of storage in the next few weeks so I am going to have to pay attention to the steering wheel thing haha
Solid choice. It’s very easy to drift in for beginners!
Indeed it is!
That kid has some cool toys!
Minus one toy now :(
Great video, just bought one and love it.
Congrats and welcome to the club. They are a blast!
Great in depth history of Ford’s RS brand. I hope they bring it back in the near future
It will probably be an EV when that happens next haha
Nice vid!!
Thank you!
I love my FFRS Mk3 2017 as a daily,summer as winter! :D Greetings from Trondheim-Norway \\m//
Watching fro Norway!? Heck yeah! I'm jealous you have the euro seats. I wish they brought them over to states. They look soooooo good.
