Ford brought over a whole batch of the 2013 Focus ST hothatch to the SEMA Show. This direct rival to the Focus ST and MazdaSpeed3 has been taken to the next level of competitiveness, thanks to the tuning efforts of Steeda Autosports.
Meant for both the road and the track, the package boost everything from handling to performance and looks.

Engine mods made to the 2-liter EcoBoost include a cold air intake, high flow turbo downpipe, cat-back exhaust. The chassis has been made more sporty, with Steeda G-Trac suspension, Brembo brakes and lightweight 19-inch HRE lightweight wheels wrapped in performance NITTO tires.

On the cosmetic side, the Focus ST received a custom spoiler and some graphics. Why no body kit? Well, not everybody wants to change the look of a brand new car. But Steeda has addressed the issues that most people would have with a stock ST.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
