No pics of the US-Spec yet.

1.6L Ti-VCT 4-cylinder.
PowerShift Dual-clutch 6-speed
SYNC
Keyless Entry/Start

 

(Wish the US Version was represented on the site.)

 

It says on the site: 'US translation in progress'

Uh-oh.

 

Calm down, remember that the Verve Sedan was quite allright:

 

As long as they don't add GIANT chrome bars that make it look like a bucktoothed tuna, hopefully we'll be OK.

Personally, I don't think they should touch it one iota. Looks great as is.

 

I cant imagine it will be much different or they wouldnt have botherd to put the Euro spec model on the website.

PLEASE CHANGE THE RED LIGHTS!!!!--I plan on buying one of these, but red interior lights WILL be a deal breaker for me. Been there, done that, hated them.

 

The conept looks great, these Fiestas are even better in person

 

I give 50/50 odds it will have MyColor.

 

Red lights? What red lights, the instrument lights? What's wrong with red lights that they'd be a deal breaker (red lighting impacts night vision the least)? Your step daddy beat you with a red flashlight as a child or something? MyColor should take care of any issues the meds don't handle.

Anyhooo, seriously, the less Ford does to screw it up to meet putative "American tastes," or whatever, the better. Usually such "translations" end up gelding the chassis for a cushy ride and adding on a lot of cheesy, shiny bling that would embarrass a rapper.

American manufacturers have long ago demonstrated, but in few rare instances, their inability to comprehend, appreciate or understand small cars, much less execute them well. So the less the muss with the Fiesta, or any other finely conceived, crafted and honed Euro wares, the better -- bring them over unmolested.

 

yes...the interior lights...

I had a Grand Am that had them..I kept it for 4 months before trading it in.....I couldnt take it anymore....I'm serious....I know that sounds crazy, but I wont do it again. I know better now.

 

I've been waiting for this car for years, it's finally just around the corner. Got to sit in the european one at the London motor show, and it was really nice. If I'm in the market for a car in a couple years, this'll probably be the one. The hatchback of course!

 

it looks good but americans won't pay that much for a 1.6L four cylinder they just wont not even if does your taxes for free

 

Price won't be the same for the USA.

 

They won't pay how much for it?

 

I would pay 16,500 for a sedan...maybe more depending on how much I like it....its gotta be cheaper than the focus.

 

$16,500 for sedan?

I got my Fusion, which is two classes larger than Fiesta, for $15,500.

I would pay no more than $11,500 for hatchback and $13,000 for sedan.

 

but its going to have lots of goodies....I think it will be more expensive than you think.....I hope not, but I'd rather be pleasently surprised than it be more that I'm willing to pay.

 

My 2007 focus was less then 14k. so it better not be 16k.

 

like I said, I hope not, but thats how much I'm willing to pay for one....granted it has the cool options...(sunroof, color leather like the fusion, 6speed, trip computer)

 

i have fancy stuff in my car like crank windows.
