That’s a slang term or acronym for Fiesta ST. It’s a little performance hatch from Ford.

Early in the ordering cycle Chevrolet discontinued Artic Blue.

I have no regrets for white. I'd get white again for 1LE or ZLE. The contrast is so nice. Nightfall grey for a ZL1 with carbon insert.

White is badass in the 1LE trim. If I would have ordered a 1LE, it would have been white.

White is the worst color on a 1LE. Get what you want, don’t settle.

Smashn808 · 06-18-2018, 06:34 PM

Love the white.

I just drove the white 1LE at my local dealer. Obviously, it was killer.
I told them I will think about it for a couple days and then decide. As soon as I get home, the dealer calls me and says, "another dealer wants to get the car from us, they have a customer who really wants it. We will hold it for you for 2 days, after that it will likely be gone."

I felt the same way when I was shopping for a 6th gen. I was looking for a red or blue SS but it was hard to find the right one. Along came a good deal on a 2SS that caught my interest but it was WHITE! At first I almost passed but the more I looked at it the more I started to appreciate the contrast between the white with black wheels. Needless to say I jumped on the deal and glad I did! I blacked out the spoiler and plan on doing the mirrors this winter. The white has really grown on me and I really LOVE the way a 1LE looks in white! In the end it’s youre decision so go with your gut instinct.

I wouldn't let it get away from you, you will regret not getting it. There is so much you can do to it to get rid of some of the white and make it look amazing. I love my summit white much better then the black that I had.

I wasn't 100% sure of white when I bought mine, I've had a 2011 2SS in Inferno Orange for the past 8 years. So used to having a bright pop of color.

It was time to change up after problems with my SS, and a deal came up on a brand new Summit White with Adrenaline red interior. That combo looks really nice to me (although I appreciate that the 1LE doesn't come with colored interiors), the white with black accents looks really nice.

I don't think you would regret buying a Summit White 1LE, but, you are trading in a 2018 2SS with only 2200 miles on it so what do I know!

Here are some pics of my Summit White with black accents:

Summit White are the most common 1LE. Beyond Krypton Green, this was my color of choice. I love it, but to each his own. If you don't like white, don't settle. Otherwise you'll be right where you are right now.
