Hell yeah. I considered one of those when I was also shopping for an E91 / F31. Seems like you can get real good deals on 'em.

My biggest concern -- as you've already experienced -- would be parts availability because I guess it's basically just a rebadged Opel

Those things don't have a heated steering wheel? Wild.

Either way, 10/10 would still buy if I could afford. Goddamn they look so good.

I've never heard the term "maxi-miata" either :v:

Put on the summer 18s and ran through a car wash

:sigh: It just snowed this week. It was high 60ºF earllier this month. Can't wait to get the summer wheels on and stop needing to wash all the salt brine off.

Sometimes I think about trading in my E91 for a V60. They look so drat nice.

Would like to perhaps get a better liner and bumper protector mat.. thinking weather tech but any other good options would be welcome to know

Forget Cars & Coffee, I'm about that Cars & Canines.


https://www.chewy.com/jumbl-pets-waterproof-non-slip-suv/dp/199987 - this is the liner I use. My rear seats are permanently folded down and I just have this installed. My only complaint is that window-mounted suction cups didn't trip the "stop rolling down" sensor for my windows so I had to take the whole rear end door card off to get it out.

The Fiesta ST is a tiny adorable puppy who is ALWAYS begging you to give it more gas. And you can because it doesn't make a lot of power.

Mine also had blend door issues, but also this really cool leak in the door somewhere where water would sometimes freeze/build up and then I couldn't close my driver's door. I distinctly remember yoinking a roll of zip ties from the server room on the last day of some old job because I needed to strap the door to my B pillar.

Super fun daily, cheap to own, atrocious comfort for long road trips.

idk, maybe it'd be OK for a ~3 hour drive, but on the ~6.5 hour trips I'd do 6-8x/yr, I'd arrive so exhausted and miserable.

Easily the hottest day of the year today here too, but no point in washing it because the rest of the week is RAIN RAIN RAIN RAIN :argh:

Yea I was gonna say, touch up paint + PPF would probably be the most sensical route rather than truly fixing the bumper [and then applying PPF].

I wish my hound had any interest in tennis balls. She has boundless energy, even at ~10 years old, but zero interest in fetch so instead I walk her a million miles a day
