How hard is it to find a FiST with...

[stuntdoogie]

Only Recaros and Rado Wheel option? Been looking and calling all over and cannot find these options without the nav and moonroof. Dont wanna result to custom order cause of my trade in devaluing by the time it arrives. Ugh...the stress.

It's pretty rare, most of the ones I see with Recaros come fully loaded with nav and moonroof. If you call your local dealer they can probably track one down for you or make an adjustment to one they may have being built.

Yeah just came from my dealer 2 hours ago and requested these options. I found one 83 miles from me with Moonroof...

Try looking into Cars.com and do a search. You might find what your looking for.

They are out here in Los Angeles (I know that doesn't help much for the OP). Trouble is they are usually black, but there is a Molten Orange at my local dealer with only Recaro and Rado wheels. Ok, I guess the color is an additional option, but these cars are out there.

I had to order mine with Recaro and Rado only, but I was also dead set on having the molten orange.

Smaller market in Canada but I had to special order mine. I didn't want the moonroof - sat nav or rado wheels and that just didn't exist. In fact They couldn't find one that was not loaded with everything

The only way a non sunroof, non navigation Fiesta ST ever existed was because the customer had it special ordered with only the Recaro seat option. I was told by a Ford dealership sales manager that they would never order that for a normal stock order because the Recaro seats were almost 2 thousand dollars and being the only optional equipment on the window sticker was not something that they wanted to try to sell. He said that to me after I told the salesman that I wanted to order one with just the Recaro seat option and nothing more. The sales manager told me that he didn’t want me to “stick them” with the “oddball” Fiesta later by backing out of the purchase agreement. I told him that I was ordering it because none of them were available off the lot.

This is true.
My ST doesn't have the Recaro seats. I test drove a FiST with them, and I didn't like them. If you want to autocross or race it, yeah, they're great for that. I wanted a DD that could do long road trips, and the base seats are comfy for hours, with the cruise set at 90.
When I drove to the free track day you get for buying an ST, I talked with a lot of owners who said their Recaro seats weren't that comfortable for long drives.
Not for me. It's a daily, and I don't race it.
I love the sunroof.
