My Ford Fiesta SE is a great car -- when you consider its purpose. I am a person who loves performance vehicles, and the Fiesta is definitely not a performance car! Having said that, it has 120hp which, given its size, is enough so that I do not feel endangered on the highway. I can pass other vehicles and cruise comfortable at high speed. The engine has a reasonably throaty sound but would not be considered sporty. The transmission is definitely not the best. The manual 'sport mode' leaves a lot to be desired, as it take about three seconds for it to register each gear change. My air conditioning can take a while to get cold and unfortunately starts getting warmer under hard acceleration! The outside of the vehicle is well designed. The interior is roomy given the small size of the vehicle, and the trunk is also quite large considering. Ford's Sync infotainment system is terrible. It is the most confusing, least user-friendly audio system I have ever used in a car. Interior material quality is higher than that of other vehicles in its class, in my opinion. Negatives aside -- as I said in the beginning, this is a commuter car. When you do not expect anything more of it than that, then it is perfectly serviceable and relatively comfortable to drive.

This vehicle handles very well for the most part, and gets great gas efficiency. The attention to detail of the interior is great. The car looks great, and is small and quick. There aren't really any blind spots due to the positioning of the windows.
