Ford has unveiled the Fiesta S at the Beijing Auto Show. The Fiesta S is essentially the same as the Fiesta that was originally unveiled in Europe with some "sporty" elements thrown in.
Do you think it looks better than the Fiesta that was unveiled earlier this year in Geneva?

I notice that Ford cars are looking more and more like Japanese cars. IMO, that's a good design decision. This car looks pretty for a hatch.

Ford are looking more and more like Japanese cars because most of their European models are based on Mazda's. True story.

Sporty? really? Only difference I see in terms of looks is that wing in the back which the non sporty fiesta also had but smaller. Like it needs it at all... lol put a 4 cyl turbo engine and now we're talking sporty.

There's a reason why they dont bring these to America. The exterior design looks European. You sell an American car that has European design in America, people would be saying WTF?

Your parents probably said the same thing when they had you, but that didn't stop them...

For something to be designated a sport model it should have some fundamental performance change. This apprently is merely visual accents.

What is that gap at the hood? They should at least close the hood before taking full frontal pictures. Somebody left it open before the shooting, I guess.

Looks great! I hope they bring it to North America. I'm sick and tired of their crappy NA-made cars.

I can't figure out why, but I think I could actually bring myself to drive this thing.
Just kidding. Re-badged, slightly re-worked front Mazda. But there is nothing like it in US roads. It might work here. Better than the old cowpies they are selling now. If you can't make a decent car, make a pretty one. Just ask Alfa Romeo, or Renault, or Jaguar. Drivers forget how shitty the cars are when they are good looking. Kinda like your wife. She may be a bad cook, can't iron, and is dumb as a rock, but holy crap is she hot!

Dear Ford,
I'm considering a Prius next year. Bring the Fiesta pictured above back to the market and I may just have to buy my first Ford in over twenty years..... My last Ford was a 1980 Fiesta.

I always liked cars with a good design looking and good quality like Ford, well, Ford is not WV or Audi, but it's acceptable for its design and quality. Some people say this new fiesta is mazda 2, some other says this is a peugeot.... Now, I looked for pictures in google and realized that it has nothing to do with peugeot or mazda 2. The shape of this fiesta is reminding me the mazda 2
,but the lights, and all the stuff are totally different and really cool! I think this fiesta is better than Peugeot or mazda. Haha! my colleague here in the office just said "It looks like a ducati" What a dumbass :D hehe
PS: I think I'll buy this fiesta, the interiors are awesome!
