Strangely I have an urge to buy a Fiesta now.
But I think I'll pass on ruining my $1000+ per wheel TE37 Volks...

Yea, I HATE rally cars for that reason! Is the Fiesta even available with rear wheel drive? Forget the 600+hp engine, paddle shift, 6 speed, mega suspension, etc... Could you imagine watching this video and then test driving the actual car? What a let down....:lol: At least the WRX and Lancer perform reasonably well from a dealer showroom with the right options. Can you even buy a "fast" Fiesta?:idk:

Not yet, but the Fiesta ST should be introduced (unlikely for this market) next year with a bit of extra performance. Ford's primary vehicle for this type of racing is the Focus and that can be had in other markets in RS trim with over 300hp and 325lb/ft of torque. Ford claims a 0-60 of under 6 seconds and a top speed over 160mph.

Dude, if you close your eyes and just listen to that vid, its sounds like you're watching the pod race scene from Phantom Menace.

You know what these sound like from the far away microphone... a Ducati GP10.

AMAZING car control.
I'm hoping just to knock 5 seconds off my lap times with my new tires.

They may bring a turbo Fiesta over but I doubt it will be AWD. The extra weight and expense isn't necessary to deal with the 170-180 horsepower the car is suspected to have. It is especially unlikely when you consider that Ford decided to stay front drive only on the 300+hp Focus RS.
