Almost a week into enjoying my new whip - time for some pics...

...and a little vid of a cool local road.
No modifications as of yet. I'm taking her to the Studio next week to adjust the alignment of the rear hatch. The brake pedal pad is a bit wobbly so will have them have a look at that too.
I finally figured out how to get the radio and bluetooth music info to show up on the digital dash - it's a intuitively named setting called "Audio Repetition".
Still can't get the bangs to come out. I go WOT from 3000-5000 rpm's in 3rd and let off the pedal but no bang...do you guys shift it into neutral when letting off the gas or leave it in gear?
Man do I love this car...the stares are probably because I'm a ruggedly handsome 40 year old guy.
I chose her over the Focus RS which I drove but it just didn't feel fast (don't enjoy AWD cars on dry pavement, never rains in so-cal). I can't think of a funner & more useful new car for under $30k. It's also nice that I never see Abarths on the road.
There appears to be little to no content on the web about the 2018 US model so if you have any questions let me know!
edit: I uploaded hi res images but they are displaying small and low res. How do I make them larger?
Thanks for reading!
