"I purchased a base model with few bells and whistles, but love this car. It holds the road, makes you feel like you are driving a sports car, and yet has lots of room in the trunk should you need it. The front seats are comfortable - the back aren't bad. Stylish for the money, it is an excellent value."

"Vehicle so far exceeds the mileage I was expecting ..averaging about 35mpg for a combined highway/city driving. Interior is very comfortable. Only dislike is that you can't see the hood end , so you must estimate where and how far away from things you are, not a problem except when parking up to a curb. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking"

"I bought a 2013 Ford Fiesta S sedan a month ago. I am very pleased with it. The price was very reasonable ($15K out-the-door) but still had more standard equipment than I expected. The fit and finish, inside and out, is superb. The 1.6 liter engine is smooth and quiet (friends thought it was a hybrid) but has enough horsepower (120 hp) to feel zippy. The manual transmission is smooth as well. The mpg is rated at 28/39. I think I'm getting around 35 combined. The car looks small, but I am 6'4" and have plenty of room in the front (39" headroom) (the driver's seat adjusts up and down). The back seat is less roomy, but my 6' son rides comfortably in the back with the front seat moved forward a bit. I only rated Reliability at 3 because it's too soon to tell, but I think it will be good. If you're looking for a car in this class, I suggest at least test driving one. I highly recommend this car. It is a good value for the money."

"I bought my Fiesta on Black Friday this year. I must admit the Ford sale had a lot to do with my purchase. However, I'm very happy with this car. Lots of fun to drive this car, it handels so well. Gas mileage better than advertised. Killer sound system. Looks great not cheap, even though it was cheap. I haven't had the car long enough to comment reliability yet. I chose this car over the Kia Rio5 and I'm glad I did."

"Got a brand-new 2013 and the 6-speed double clutch is a wreck, shifts hard, sounds like there is a transformer under the hood when your driving, super annoying, and the clutch randomly catchs and jerks the car, forward into traffic, it is a ticking time bomb on wheeles, i dont feel safe letting my family or even myself driving this DEATH TRAP! took it to FORD and they told me the car was fine. THEY'RE ALL LEMONS! eventually give it enough time and that herky jerky motion will cause expensive fixes. DO NOT BUY BEWARE!!"

"I spent a good deal of time and effort to find an affordable car with good mileage. And I concluded that this is the best one out there. I've logged roughly 500 miles so far and I don't have any compliant yet."

"Like a lot of the littler cars, the Fiesta handles really well around turns. What makes the Fiesta different than most is its peppiness. You don't have to worry about merging on highways. At top speeds, its feels like a German sports car. The only time I worry about the engine is in parking lots. It's jittery at low speeds. When I first start it, it makes weird noises that worry me, but it's never unresponsive. The braking system is really good. I drove it in the rain and I didn't feel like I was going to slip off the road and die like in some other 4 cylinders. Speaking of noises, the road noise reduction in this car is excellent, better than some of the luxury cars I've driven. I got the 7 speaker stereo system and it's really great. The gas mileage on my Fiesta has been steadily getting better since I bought it, but it hasn't gotten past 35 mpg yet. Then again, I've been driving around with a lot of cargo. The trunk on the sedan is shockingly big. The Sync system doesn't do everything I'd like and sometimes misunderstands me, but there's a line-in port so I can just use my phone's features. The interior dashboard of Fiesta is well designed and easy to keep clean, but it's weird that the locks are in the middle rather than on the doors. The visibility is really good with the blind spot mirrors. I travel a lot for business, and I've driven a lot of different cars as rentals. I've also driven a lot of luxury vehicles. I chose the Fiesta because I think it's the best commuter car out there."
