If anyone can fill me in it would be great, but my coworker has this car, and she said its automatic but it shifts itself like a standard (basically, you hear the shifting like it was a standard) she she has to actually stop at a stop sign or it will sound weird when she slows down then speed up again (which is what shes use to doing) I'm plainning on buying one in January and i'm not a fan of standards, can anyone fill me in on that information? message my youtube homepage please

@alchemistofsins The Fiesta has a twin-clutch auto gearbox like a Audi. Just google duel clutch and that will explain how it woks. It's very cool and pretty crazy that they put such an expensive and advanced gearbox in a small car like the Fiesta.

Less room than a Fit but better handling dynamics for sure

@DJTEVAdotCOM But much smaller and slower

fiat 500 is way nicer for the same price.

I test drove this car on snow and ice covered roads. The advancetrac stability control works great on this car as do the antilock brakes. Was very impressive. This car will run cicles around my Kia Spectra

I really like this car, but I definitely think the cost is going to drive people away from it only because you can get a Honda Civic, or other sedans for about the same price. I honestly think that they should lower the price of hatchbacks just a tad so that they can compete better with those who want economy/practical cars for a good price.

@romanmicagearguy I dont think so i believe the fit puts up better handling numbers it did the car and driver lane change at 72.5 MPH :0 that is CRAZY FAST.

@supercooled -- as I said it,s mostly personal opinion but these little cars are a but too highly priced.The Ford has a bit more rear seat room -- both have lots of room in the front seat both are pretty anemic compared to cars that are only a few thousand more------ especially if you do any highway driving ----- both are fast compared to the Accent but slower than a Golf .All these little shopping carts they sell these days as cars are $20,000 out the door--- until the Chineese come in ???
