dont see why its so hard for them to make up there mind, the car has already been made over seas they just have to order them

they should just order 1 or 2 per state as demos, and then once a certain amount of orders placed then get the cars delivered,

cant be that much over head, also of all the body parts are identical to the normal fiesta just the mechanics are the main difference and if there making $5k profit on every car that shoudl cover it.

though they could really do if ford decided yes but then thinks they can pu the price up near the price of the polo gti and clios etc

ford should be smart and bring it here with $25k ish price tag under cut all the other companys so they are a stand out price as well as a fair bit of go.

That blue dash/interior looks really good actually. I wonder if combinations can be achieved (red or orange exterior, with black/dark grey interior rather than red/orange interior.

That blue looks real nice though...

That said, we know they're good little machines. People who have bought them CERTAINLY know they're great. Now all Ford AU needs to do is ADVERTISE THE BLOODY THINGS. On TV. You know, the box that the country watches everynight. Worth thinking about maybe, especially if I were a marketing sort.
