Im 22 years old and this is my 13th car. It’s odd how something so cheap and small has already become one of my favorites.

I had a fist as my DD and had to sell it because new twins. It has been my favorite car even compared to much “nicer” cars. Very honest in everything it did and how it presented itself. Miss that sob.

My SFE feels the same way. Very honest.

It is cute, and kudos to you for embracing that. So many people act like a car being “cute” is a bad thing. It’s not.

I hate that every car in every segment no matter how small has to be angry looking and “badass”. Nothing wrong with a cute, happy looking car.

ha - I let a lady out in front of me in one exactly like that today. I work with a guy that had one of the “platinum” hatches that he really liked too... I would like to drive one of the STs at some point.

Yes. Drive an ST. The FiST was and always be my first true love.

I drive a pair of cute cars, and I love them both:

Fiestas are great. The only glaring fault they have is if you get the PowerShift DCT like in the Focus. I’m also not a fan of their 4-lug setup for wheels, but that’s a nitpick of my own (no fewer than 5 unless center-lock).
Fiestas actually share their platform with the prior-gen Mazda2, though a bit bigger. Still keeps the Mazda’s fun-to-drive characteristics though.
I drove a customer’s Fiesta ST yesterday and even though it was just around the lot (and it only had 8K miles on it) so much about it felt
so right
. I have no idea why folks buy Versas and sonics/sparks instead of Fiestas.

Mine is the 1.0L 3cyl turbo w/ 5 speed manual, no DCT here, but I thank the DCT for lowering the Fiesta’s resale value. It’s a lot of fun to drive.

Loving my litter 1 liter too, my little red rocket! I saw another sfe today and got really excited. My uncle looked at me very weird since I got so excited about another ‘boring’ Fiesta
