    I totally agree JAM!

    Crazy sound, not at all allowed here in Europe...

    Just found out that the full rally coverage is available on http://rally.stanis.info but it is a big download at 696mb for the hour long show. Gives better information about the car & plus onboards.

    It is a S1600 body & chassis from Italy with a new Mountune engine & the Sadev drivetrain. It was finished only the week before the rally. It is widely expected that officials looked the other way in regards to noise, so as to not embarrass Ford on their debut.

    Even so, one Fiesta broke a driveshaft on the startline of Stage 1.
    Happiness is using the side windows more than the windscreen

    In reply to being asked what 240Kph on Watagans Road was like:-

    The second rally they performed a lot better. They were even faster than the corolla Super 2000! But the corolla N4 was too fast, else they would have had a few scratch times...

    This car should come to europe definatly, or they should directly build one based on the new fiesta:

    Erki,
    New cars almost allways need a "get used to" period + this is just concept pic, not even sure its a photo..

    And if it goes fast and its ford, its good for me

    This could be true... At first the new Focus looked butt ugly to me but now it looks even 50% good... That Fiesta, on the other hand... *vomit*

    That Ford reminds me of that brilliant Peugeot commercial were this Indian guy modifies his 206 by letting an elephant sit on it. This Fiesta looks like an elephant sat on it too. But at least the Indian had the presence of mind to drive it into a brick wall afterwards, which the Ford designers evidently missed.
