Default NEW ST Facelift!

I must say, the back looks better here, but im still not keen on the front lights with a bulge near the indicator.....

Holy buggery batman, that looks A LOT better.

The stripes used to look stupid, but the new nose & front/rear lights make it look like serious little menace.

I've changed my mind, Ford AU can CERTAINLY waste our time with this, it looks fantastic.

still don't like the headlights... i'd prefer a two reflector unit. Those remind me too much of the Toyota MR2 (current model).

Lower doesn't instantly mean better. The ST is already extremly well setup and pulls 0.97g's through the corners, this is a great result for any car let alone a hatchback.

You would be hard pressed to get a better setup for road use.

if you dont know how to drive a manual with a phone on your shoulder, a burger in one hand and the other arm hanging out the window, then you need to get retested for your licence :P
