Default 2010 Ford Fiesta

I am strongly considering this for a DD. I dont care if you think it will suck cause its a Ford. This car is awesome.

Review: 2010 Ford Fiesta Euro-Spec almost ready for U.S. arrival

Kudos to Ford for putting together a tech savvy, dare I say, plush interior. Its unfortunate that they put that in a rather unappealing exterior package, but we'll see what shows up stateside

I kinda like the looks but at the current conversion of $26,000 its a major fail. Especially with only a 118hp 1.6L.

Lower the price, but other than that I like it.

Everything is far more expensive across the pond. As they predicted it will likely fall wellll below 20k.

I have never liked a ford more than this vehicle that I actually thought I could own myself. Honestly being a honda guy, I can still say that this blows the fit out of the water for the money.

i wonder if it will still feel like a mini suv when you drive it

personally i am not a fan of the new put the driver high above the road drivers seats the econo boxes are sporting these days

while nice looking, i would have to test drive one to see if it can give you the feel that it might be as sporty as it looks

it is interesting how many of the euro spec versions from domestic automakers are finally making the jump across the pond. is it possible they finally pulled their heads out of their corporate butts and woke up?

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
