Just test drove our first ST today. Looking to buy one to replace our '13 Sport. Hoping to learn as much as I can about the platform here. (Already confirmed my suspicions about the artificial engine sound, which I can't say I'm super crazy about.)

I never think about the piped in engine noise. BTW, welcome to the forum!

Autoworker I do the same. I just don't think about it.

Lots of cars have artificial engine sounds these days, how does it feel when you drive it? That supersedes the sound...and you can always change the exhaust....

Everybody that has rode with me in mine say" man this thing sounds like it's wanting to go "
I kinda like it for that reason.
Kinda fun hearing it count off the gears 1,2,3,4,5,6,......

Just me.

Oh I was very impressed with the way it felt, to say the least. I'm sold!

And here we are. Traded in the old rusty 2013 Sport on this 2021 Saturday. Have a lot to learn and a lot of things I'd like to do.
