That looks perfect. I've always wanted an orange Focus ST ever since I saw the Top Gear review of the MK2 version ("the ASBO").

Great pics!

Beautiful car man, if I didn't owe as much on my SE I would have picked one up last month. Maybe next year lol

Thanks for the comments and welcome, I'm really enjoying the car and in many ways it is an upgrade to the A3.

The stock ST performance is every bit as good at the old car with full exhaust, tune, and a fuel pump. Also, the technology on the ST blows the A3 out of the water. The sporty interior is a much welcomed upgrade as well.

I have to admit, the Top Gear review of the MKII is a big part of what sold me on the car.

Just added some new wheels.

I've always been a fan of these wheels and almost ordered a set of the GT version for my previous car. After an attempt to adapt my CCW LM20's to this car, I decided to start fresh and get exactly what I wanted.

Here are a couple quick shots with the car still frosted over from the morning coffee run today. I'll probably wash the car and take some proper photos this weekend. The specs are 18x7.5 et40 on the stock 235/40/18 Goodyears. They sit 10mm out from the stock wheels, so they'r much more flush. Overall I'm really happy with the look.

Don't like the close-ups, but the full side profile looks damn good.

Superleggeras?

Superturismo LMs.

Gorgeous wheels, I was considering those for my SE.

Nice ride. I am in Annapolis too, so I will honk at you if I see going by. :D
Did you get yours from Koons?

I have a '13 ti hatch with tinted windows and the echomaster DRLs on it. I got the tints done at OMG on west street. He did a nice job.
