Used 2011 Ford Fiesta SEL 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl 5M) Consumer Reviews
great little commuter
The automatic is not as smooth as traditional slushomatics so it took a while for my other half to get used to it as she never drove a stick. For me it was fine because I was used to sticks and if I could shift as fast as this car does it would feel the same. There was an issue with hunting for gears in parking lots but the transmission was reprogrammed to change shift points at low speeds and it has noticeably smoothed it out. The trunk is a decent size for a car in this class and the rear seats fold for more useable space. Rear passenger room is tight for adults which is why this car gets 4 (i wish I could go 4 1/2) stars. As a second car which rarely carries people in the back but commutes to work, goes on costco runs etc. it works, has enough zip to be safe in traffic and gets good fuel economy.

Great Car
Was intending to by a honda fit but the fiesta was way more fun to drive.Yes it does not have as much room. But it makes up for that by the way it handles and drives. I have been driving this car to work everyday and I have to say I am very impressed with what Ford has done.
