Is anyone else in the Houston area?
I’ve only seen 1 other ST on the road out here, but it would be cool to organize a meet once this coronavirus stuff is over.

I'm in the Woodlands area. Having a meet after the virus thing sounds good.

Old thread, so not sure it's still active, but new to the ST game (came from a Raptor) and Just purchased a 25' ST. Anyone know of any good performance shops in the Houston area?

For ST stuff most are using Houston Speed Freaks.

@JC-ST:

Welcome Aboard.

Were there many 2025 ST's still waiting to be sold at the Dealership you went to? I'm told sales for 2025 may be better than previous years (2020 to now). Curious to see when the official data comes out from FORD.

They had quite a few on the lot. Black with sun and sound were a tad harder to come by. Lots of white and carbonized gray.

Here in NorCal, late Nov 2024 to early January, there were almost none on the lots; and what was there most Dealers wanted at least 7% ABOVE MSRP. I bought a Red one (Dealer found it on a train from Chicago) only because it was the first 2025 in NorCal WITHOUT the Sun and Sound package. Black looks killer good but we almost always have 100 to 110 degree days from June to at least the end of August.
When you get it the way you want, please share some pic with us.

Oh dang, that's crazy. Definitely more of a surplus out this way. OTD price on mine was $45,350.
The red looks sooo good with the gloss black accents and tinted windows all the way around. Almost went with that color option.
Got a laundry list of mods I'm working on. Velgen VF10's arrive tmr. Will definitely upload pics once she's ready.

Yeah, this time of year is great for getting good deals. Add $10,000 to your deal and we will start talking on mine. I used the FORD "X" Plan plus great incentives and add-ons at cost from the dealer.

I'm all over on the color charts for cars. Out of my last 9 vehicles: 4 red, 1 blue and 4 white. Clearly, the white exteriors are the easiest to take care of so our everyday cars have all been white.
