    Ford has really stepped up their racing program lately. They just signed two new teams in NASCAR now Ken Block. I don't know too much about him but i think it is a great marketing move.

    I suppose, but I have a WRX... I have no intentions of buying a Fiesta, I don't care HOW different they are from the old ones.
