Anyone driven this 3 cylinder in any variant yet? Ford was super proud of it a few years ago.

Yeah, I drove a 3 cylinder 1.0 EcoBoost in a Focus with a 6-speed manual. It was slow, but SUPER smooth and pleasant. Not sure it had enough oomph for a daily driver Focus...Would've liked to drive the Fiesta version, but the Fiesta is just too small of a car.

Pretty sure I have heard or seen bone stock ones running 14.9 and above. Guess depends on driver and conditions.

Plus, unprepared airport runway is what they test on. So ET's will suffer. And the timing system isn't the same as a true drag strip.

But most of the stock Fiesta ST's are solid mid 15's with average drivers.
