Took a buddy out last night in the ST and launched it from a light. After I let off he just looked at me in disbelief. Told him I wanted to race him (2014 SL63 AMG). He wouldn’t give me an answer, has to think about it.

thanks ZFG for an amazing E50 tune!!!

Finally got around to washing after all the rain we've had. Few pics showing off. Still need to get the CF front spoiler installed one of these days.

Absolutely blew the doors off a TrackHawk

... & while I would like to claim I was in the ST, I was actually on my Kawasaki 1100. :)

First mod and post. I had the plain Llumar tint the dealer forced me to buy for $995 ripped off and had it redone how I wanted it. SunTek Evolve 25% front, 15% back, 75% windshield, and 15% eyebrow. Next up, paint protection followed by major audio upgrade.

Bad ass color! What are you doing to the stereo? Rip it out and start over? Oh and welcome to site.

Looks great! Looking forward to details of your major audio upgrade! Have to say I get much more enjoyment driving my ST now that I have good sound! While many are happy with the oem stereo, I found it sorely lacking in both quality and volume.

Was delivering some material to a customer and they saw the sub and wanted to know all the details. Young guy maybe 27. Spent about 10 minutes talking stereo with him.

Curious, what did you change your system out with?

Thanks, I'll be removing the B&O and transplanting some of my stuff from my old truck, adding more, and upgrading some eventually.

I agree on the stock B&O; for a factory system it's tolerable for now. It sounds better than my wife's stock 2019 F150, but sounds like crap compared to what I'm used to. I'm fixing to pull my Focal FPX 4.800 and Focal FPX 1.1000 amps, Morel Hybrid 602 components, IDMax12 sub, and JL TWK88 DSP from my 2004 F150. I'm going to move to a 3 way active setup so I'm going to start with adding a 3.5" Morel Elate Carbon MM3 and Focal FPX4.400SQ. Not sure what I am going to do sub wise as i like the IDMax, I just don't want a big box taking up needed space any more. It'll work for now though. Soon there after, I'll upgrade the Hybrids to Elates and have custom pods built for the tweeters in the sail panels.

I've always had trucks, so I've never really been able to do a system the way I have always wanted. Every vehicle I have ever had has had custom audio. I kept my last system for almost 20 years. OG Arc Audio amps, original CDT Eurosports, and an Audio Control DQX processor. While my new ST setup won't be on Unbroken's level, it will be good and better than anything I've had before.

Another attempt at paint correction, starting to think the water spots were in the sheet metal before the paint & primer went on... This paint is absolute garbage

Just picked up a 2020 ST with ~15k miles. First mod was removing those hideous chrome lug nuts. More to come!

Nice ride! I’m not sure what Ford was thinking about those chrome lug nuts.
