Here is a rendered picture of the car as I ordered it. Think it will be pretty sweet.

Uh....who let their 2 year old draw on their car?

It's cool if you are 19, wear your jeans with your crotch down at your ankles and you have orange skin.

I'd like to see the car in person but overall it looks great. Not too keen on the graphics though, but to each their own

Everyone who left you good feedback on Youtube deserves a beer!

This could get costly for you.

I have to say thats a good looking car, like the fuel mileage as well. Any idea of what the price range will be for them?

Sweet deal, dude. I see why Ford didn't take bailout money. The Fiesta will win the day! Man, it feels good to own a Ford. - Og

Speaking of acting like a punk/child- well done! I could have had the car without any graphics, but it would likely go unnoticed by 90% of the general population. I was limited on my choices, but picked the least obtrusive graphic layout available.

If you don't like it, you can go screw yourself. I could make comments about your ugly two-tone truck, but I won't. Oops, too late.

Haha, I will consider this. I have some plans for a serious road trip... possibly to Detroit. I might make some stops along the way...

I like it a lot. the price range is ROUGHLY going to fall between $12,500-18,000. Pricing isn't decided yet, but my sources say to get an idea look at the Honda Fit pricing... it will be competitive with that.

Heck yeah man. The Fiesta is hands down going to be the highest quality, best driving, best mileage, best looking, and most fun car in the class.

Whatever, man. You asked what we thought and I told you. I am just a brutally honest person when someone asks me their opinion. It would be fine without the cheesy graphics. Your response to me reminds me of responses made by other younger members who ended up getting banned from this site. Keep it up and see how long you last.

I don't care if you like my truck or not. I didn't ask your opinion.

I cannot see your rendered version for some reason just get the "x".

But from your other pictures I cannot say I like the look of it. Just looks ugly to me but I also don't like any of the other cars in its segment either. A nice set of wheels and tires that don't look too small would probably help out a lot. But it does sound like it does have a nice build quality and features and that is what really counts. Styling is just subjective. Enjoy your new ride

I thought it would be in the 20K+ range! I'm torn between that or a Mazda6 when its time for me to get a family sedan.

You should swap wheels with your Focus before you return it

Bad thing though, is that the first year of ANY new car is going to have one problem or another...

If someone were going to give me a car to drive for free, and I had to choose from that class, that would be my choice. Excellent car. I just saw a test drive of the new Focus RS on "5th Gear." Still not my first choice of cars, but I'd take one over a WRX.
