Geneva Show: Ford Fiesta RS Concept

you can also use the grill to wipe the mud off your boots before getting in the car??

I like the looks of that. Maybe Ford should bring that car to the sates to Kill the Aveo and the little Honda brat in sales. You can't say it doesn't have any curb appeal.

Ford had a very similar one with a different paint (vinyl?) scheme last year. Not sure what became of that, or why they are showing this again. I think it was called the Ford Rallye Concept -- maybe it was a different car with a striking similarity.

Yes I can. I think the design is completely without curb appeal. It looks like a ricer to me, and I find the raised taillights and entire car in general too Asian. I just dont like it. :brick:

The Fiesta would kill the Aveo (and all the other mini's sold in NA) in terms of quality, dynamics, and style, but I'm also pretty sure it would be more expensive which defeats the point here (same reason the new Focus isn't coming over: the compact mainstream in NA is all about price)

I would love to have that (rs) but i think that we are most likely to get a version of the st rebadged as a mazda.

RS just screams junior rally
