Building the only BS First Edition in South America, from Chile :)

[Joseto95]

Hi guys!, i'm José Tomás from Chile, South America.
I bought a white 2022 Bronco Sport "Wildtrak" (equipment similar to First edition) like a month ago, already made 1600 miles, my idea is taking my Wildtrak and "build" a First edition, if i'm right the First edition was only sell in the US. There are like 5 things that the First editions have and the Wildtrak don't.
At least it would be the only one in South America.
Before the BS i had a Subaru Crosstrek 2017 which i "semi-changed" into a Crosstrek STI.
In my BS already notice some fabric faults, some weird noises, also pretty cool easter eggs and other cool stuff, i'm making videos on my Instagram showing cool Bronco sport info and, like "reviewing" the car (easter eggs, quality, mechanical, fabric quality build, specs, real 0-60, etc) , maybe you can visit my profile (@Joseto95).
So far so good the little Bronco, but i have many questions and an issue that i haven't seen on any post here....
Also i'm a automobile mechanic engineer, so maybe i can help you and you guys can help me.
Thanks a lot for accepting me here, i don't know if i'm the only outsider of the US here, haven't seen someone yet.
There are just a few BS in Chile, they are expensive and the Wildtrak white is the most exclusive, there aren't forums or groups here in Chile yet. So thanks for that and i hope having a good relation with you guys, any doubt that maybe i can help, here i am....
Here's my GOAT Trak

Welcome Jose, look forward to hearing about your build and any adventures in Chile.

Welcome!
This is very interesting.
We don't have a Wildtrack BS in the U.S.
Is it based on the Badlands, as are the First Editions?

I find it amazing that in these troubled times so many aftermarket add on’s are even available for the BS. Watching build ups here is great fun.

I follow a few Wildtrak Sports on IG from Brazil. They only have Base or Wildtrak which is Badlands with Badlands package, Premium package, Tow package, 360+, and Cargo Management System. Basically all upgrades possible

Hi José!
Eduardo from Buenos Aires, Argentina here. Welcome to the forum. There some members from South America but we are really just a few.
I have the same wildtrack trim but in dark grey (Gris Mercurio )

I'm on vacation right now enjoying my BS in the wild Andes (La Rioja province) reaching more than 4000m altitude and discovering incredible views!!

Abrazo!

Hi, Long story short, its a First edition but, without heated steering wheel, 225/65R17 A/T tyres instead of 235, bronco exterior badges are in white, interior color is alcantara and leather bi-tone brown, stickers or decals are different, only have in the fronts doors the wildtrak logo (same as ranger 2022 wildtrak logo), don't have roof cross bars and if i'm not mistaken that's all....

Yep, the Wildtrak is nearly a first edition and a big ben well i think it's like the base.

Hi eduardo
Cool, so we are neighbors, i seen many gris mercurio, dont no in argentina but here the most like "exclusive" o difficult to get is the oxford white Wildtrak or Big ben, then wildtraks as they are more expensive there are less in the streets here.
Question, does your wildtrak came with gray roof instead of black? here in Chile the gray wildtrak roof is and optional or accessory from the factory, as i searched in the government transportation info there are only 5 oxford white with gray roof Wildtrak here in chile and yes.... it was expensive haha.
Don't know if in Argentina is like this, but i waited a year and a half for my car from de factory..........
Last weekend i went to Valle Nevado ski resort, aprox. 2800mt (9100ft), first offroad, so far so good....
I'm editing videos for posting them here later this week.
Eduardo if sometime you are coming to Chile, tell me, unfortunately there aren't forums o groups of Bronco Sport in Chile.

Un abrazo de vuelta vecino!

Saludos José, te saluda tu tocayo José desde Puerto Rico, el híbrido entres USA y América Latina. Mi primera opción fue una Badlands blanca, que por diferencias con el dealer/concesionario no me llevé. Pude encontrar una BL Cactus grey, la cual es mi actual vehículo. Espero que la disfrutes y la pongas a tu nivel!

Eduardo, post some pics!

Well... it took a while but here it is a Youtube video of the BS at the Andes, La Rioja province, Argentina!



Feel free to subscribe to my channel for more videos tripping around Argentina!
I have made the playlist "Córdoba - La Rioja - San Juan - San Luis (Marzo/Abril 2022)" with more videos from that trip.

Welcome to the group -- no strangers here.
Think your Wildtrak has some things we can't get here, so it's already special to us.
