TFLcar.com – 2011 Ford Fiesta First Drive
( www.TFLcar.com ) Is America ready for a premium small car that gets good gas milage and handles like it was engineered for Germany’s Autobahn. That’s the question. Watch the video for the answer,

Which car would be perfect match for me a 2011 mazda2 or a 2011 Ford Fiesta hatch?
@john21 trying to imitate the fit would be a step backward! The car has over 25 years of refinement. When they stopped selling it in the US ford continued in Europe! It has been one of the top cars there!
The fiesta is worth the wait! There is nothing on the market that compares
The Honda Fit put up a good run.
I excited for this car!
I reserved one in January, waited until March before I could order one, well it’s now five months, the “VIP” treatment with updates has been a joke. They told me it was built yesterday, but the dealer told me it was built weeks ago, May 21. Any goodwill they created is long ago gone, In January it was coming in”Spring”. My good will in in negitive numbers! The Ford PR person Angie Kozleski lies!
They sure have tried to immitate the fit. I don’t think it quiet can do that though. The fit is backed up by the decades of quality craftsmanship while ford has been disastrous and near bankrupt automaker with terrible reliability.
It doesn’t help that the car is assembled in Mexico while the Fit in Japan.
The mexican made volkswagens have a lot of reliability issues.
I like it ! When is it expected to hit dealer lots?
The car is nice and I am glad they are bringing over more euro type cars; however, I think most cars these days are overpriced considering what we get. I think the Chinease should bring cars over and put them all out of buisiness.
As one of the Fiesta Movement Agents, I can’t wait to hear how the handling of the US version compares to the European car. I have been driving the European one for a year, and have a US on on order. The car has exceeded every expectation of what a small car should be.
@Much sexier than a fit. If was back in MI I would be buying this as soon as it came out.
Awesome!! I can’t wait for the driving impressions!
Less room than a Fit but better handling dynamics for sure
This will instantly kill the Honda Fit when it comes to America.
Cool lil car.
Economy is the KEY for this car.
