Driving Sports Reports - Extra! Ford's new 2011 Fiesta and Mustang V6

[hayder0809]

the mustang is a great car its cheap its got a v6 enginge alot of bhp and it goes fast in a straight line it also looks very nice and stylish. I would defo reccomend

[codeman6669]

you can tell this guy never read the lines before this video

[mean71cuda]

they need to make the fiesta Turbo to 300hp and AWD.. omfg that would kill everything..

[supercooled]

@mean71cuda Including their sales of the Focus RS. If you really wanted a 300HP AWD beast, you can build one out of your own pocket like racing outfits do. Ford will not have one unless they're stupid and only want to sell less than 1,000 units which is already very optimistic.

@colderbeer Welcome to YouTube where everyone is an expert. These comments are actually tame compared to some other shows.

[gunzkevin]

@drivingsports Haha you are too right. It is pretty funny when people get into arguments. If you just type in a calm manner and correct their every mistake they will get pretty mad. Pretty fun.

[colderbeer]

Wow....why all the hate being aimed at this guy in the video?

[reanimate280]

that 2011 mustang v6 is a great bargain ...you get a lot for your money and the car looks really great to boot..and there are always tons of after market parts to make it even more snazzier ....super impressed with fords new interiors too

[mattballinger2010]

ford is best car maker there is :)

8==D

[andrewovechkin]

Sike..... Ford stands for "fix or rerpair daily." lol jk jk

[Headshot426]

Well with quality exceeding Toyota and Honda.. what do all the fanboys and hippies have to cling on to now?

[CaptainChinblade]

ford

[dumbamerica]

this douchebag was born with no shoulders.

[WakeTheDead300]

its not direct injection, its dual cam....this guy doesnt know shit...take this video off

[rs2p00nz]

My mouth dropped when he said twin clutch gear box. Is that true?

[joeyee1]

yes. ford calls it the powersift automatic, a dry dual clutch.

[drivingsports]

@frank55656 Yes, we noted that in the description and on our site. Everyone (even the big guys) make mistakes.

[reanimate280]

but your not a "big guy" and you have lousy reporting skills and your jokes are not clever or witty...also you don't look that great ..pasty, lumpy and balding on top of sub par hosting skills never make a good combo

[xevious2501]

as for the fiesta, which is a great car (euro version) i dunno whats with ford in this case. FORD U.S.!!! GET IT THREW YOU THICK SKULL! FORD UK HAS BETTER CAR DESIGNERS!! STOP MAKING AMERI VERSIONS UGLY!!! Just bring there cars over here. And stop designing everything from a rectangle!!! THE 60-70's is dead! ITs 2009!! for pete sake!!

[qnyny]

What do you think of the nissan cube a european design?

[Headshot426]

Most definitely a car for pussies.

[qnyny]

ohh definatly the cube and the soul are just uglythe soul is actually nice inside but these cars are not meant for north american market. half won't make it up a hill in alberta in winter. plus when it fails making it's way upthe hill it wont get out of any ditch it got stuck in.

[bezzle67]

I think the fiesta looks exactly the same other than the grill.

[xevious2501]

That v6 is possibly the best engine ford has made to date. honestly. its a v6 more powerful than the old 5.0 and gets great gas mileage, and if you for a secound exclude the -non V8- notions , this engine is way light weight a 7K rpm is killer for a stang, and with the usual aftermarket performance mods this car would scream. Im willing to bet youl see these v6's out performing the stock 5.0 v8's with only a few mods. cant believe ford did it rite!

[temdatli]

I can't believe it. They really screwed up the Fiesta! The European version looked so sleek but the American version looks like garbage! That front end with those ugly ass 3 damn chrome blades and then carrying that around to the turn signals makes me puke! Way to go Ford!

[ricepaddy69]

The sedan gets those three bars, while the hatchback keeps the same grill and the same overall look as the Euro-spec version.

[mustangmikeca]

it's not direct injection dumbass

[andrestnt]

wrong the 3.7 its not direct injected, its only port injected.

this guy should do some research before uploading his videos.

[theanthroman]

Good catch. There was a correction to this story posted at the Driving Sports TV website, but it did not get carried over to youtube.

Thanks for watching!

[andrestnt]

got it

[stanbernadino]

Great news about the new DI motor, but when are they going to can that solid rear axle??

[37Sly]

Mustang looks good and the V6 very nice... What they should've also done, was bring the Ford Focus RS to the states. That would've been awesome.

[xveechan]

he show was yesterday wasn't it !?

[typhoon5000]

That 3.7L V6 is not a DI motor. It's just a 24V DOHC, variable cam timing motor. Ford doesn't need any silly DI to make 300hp out of a V6, like some other people do :cough: Crapmaro :cough:

[poopfacemcgee24]

direct injection CAN vastly improve fuel economy though. it's not about making the most power it's about being efficient. Even KIA can make 300hp out of a v6(I know they don't, it's just an example). Direct injection is just the new tech that the car companies are moving to. Audi's been doing it for a few years now.

[typhoon5000]

Yes I understand DI and how it improves efficiency. I was just poking fund at GM's similarly sized V6 wit DI makes 1hp less than Ford's ;)

[nevets2847]

i also heard that FORD is going to bring the euro focus that will have the COSWORTH moter..if thats true that car is going to be great

[typhoon5000]

The first part is right, but not the second part. Cossy only makes racing engines now, as far as full engines go (they still design OEM individual parts).

[Caseybat94]

2011 v6 stang is supposed to make 300-315hp and 280 lb/ft and mustang gt over 400 hp and over 400 lb/ft

[poopfacemcgee24]

2.73?!? super low! what's the trans gearing?

[john25992]

maybe that is what they mean. The diff and tran together. hmmm :/

[gyneve]

it's 2.73 at the rear axle, with an available 3.31

[poopfacemcgee24]

yes, i heard that too, but it's still super low compared to say, a WRX with a 3.90 final drive, but maybe that's an american car thing, lower final and higher trans gear ratios.

[solozaur]

The Mustang looks great!

[truerider211]

Not a huge ford fan but this video had a lot of good info. New Stang engine sounds B.A..Bout time one of the big 3 make a great mpg car. Keep the videos coming!
