2014 Ford Focus ST3 Review - A GREAT and FUN daily driver that is ready to see some TRACK TIME!

In this video I review a 2014 Ford Focus ST3 that only has 24,000 miles on it currently. This vehicle is practically still stock and has a ton of room for improvement. It doesn't pull incredibly in straightaways but can handle corners at high rates of speed!

Let me know what you guys think about this 2014 Ford Focus ST! Overall, this car for sure is not the craziest thing I have driven but this car did take me by surprise while I was driving it.

[@charlesjames1442]

Bought my '13 ST2 new in November of that year. It sat on the lot for 9 months, irritating the dealer for not selling. Nobody wants a school bus yellow Ford or a car with a clutch. It's a great little hatch. Stock, they can take 87 octane regular. Mine has the Mountune MP-275 tune and component upgrade on it and the Mountune cat-back exhaust. Dynos at 263.1 whp/326.5 lbft. Mods include: Quaife LSD, Focus Electric rear motor mount, Mountune (Pro Alloy) tube and fin intercooler, Mountune low-restrict. intake, the cat-back exhaust, Ford M-5200-U lowering springs (1/2' drop, no longer available), PowerStop Z23 front pads and rotors.(standard Motorcraft rear), Focus RS brake cooling air deflectors and a Mountune recirculation valve on the turbo. And the 91 octane tune. I use an A-pillar mount for the Mountune M-tune controller (an Accessport). I have a few badges on the back for Mountune and Ford Performance. No other appearance changes. I was thinking about a Miata or other roadster, but I'm on long trips to collect grandkids sometimes and needed more room. The 1st generation 2 liter Ecoboost uses the closed deck Mazda L block and is extremely stout. 2nd gen Ecoboost 2 liters use Ford's "improved" block with open-deck architecture that is cheaper to cast and finish but has a weaker top end. hence RS head gasket failures. The ST is the best car I've owned in nearly 60 years of driving. And lastly, I'm no fan of amateur aerodynamics. Those factory spoilers are designed the way they are for a good reason. Messing with them is likely to generate more drag and more lift than before unless you are a post grad in fluid dynamics. Rant over.

Picking up a black 2014 ST3 from the dealership today :) super excited

[@AntsCarReviews]

Congratulations man! I hope you enjoy your new car and have fun driving and building it!! :)

[@nickrossol9801]

@@AntsCarReviews I will and thanks! :)

[@christophercash8245]

That's not the exhaust manifold in the front!!! That's the intake manifold that's made of plastic!! The turbo is mounted on the exhaust manifold on the other side of the engine

[@AntsCarReviews]

Thank you!

[@ethienbuys6246]

Wow. This video is the only one that answered all my questions. Just bought a 2014 st through carvana. You made me decide. Keep up the great work. 🤝

[@AntsCarReviews]

Wow, thank you so much for the positive feedback! I hope you love your new ST and I hope you have a lot of fun driving and building it!! :)

[@Mcandy78gaming]

I traded my mk8 fiesta st3 for a mk3 focus st and have no regrets.

[@TattooedMinimalist13]

Been debating picking one of these up. I think the front cup spoiler kit drastically improves the front appearance of the car. Without it, the car looks a little economy.

[@AntsCarReviews]

Completely agree about the front end

[@pqcanci61]

Every time this guy says "actually" or "basically" take a shot...

[@AntsCarReviews]

LOL!

[@jasonwilliams42]

[@eesahussain6016]

[@j073phh]

[@ethienbuys6246]
