Envy Has Some New Competition!

Post by epcIII »

Who would win? I think the new Fiesta looks pretty good. http://www.fordvehicles.com/ca...otos/. But I still like my Envy!

Fiesta 100% but if I had to have a car with that color it would be a Genesis Coupe. Those things look pretty good in slime green metallic.

Well, the Vibe has more cargo space, power, an 03-08 can be bought for less money, and the Vibe doesn't have cliche "European styling" entry level cars of late seem to be "striving" for.

Ford really should of just made a sporty 4 door version of the Focus with a different engine / suspension.

The Fiesta looks like a Vibe Shrinky Dink.

Ford Canada lists their base model Fiesta S sedan at $14'3XX +tax. The hatch will cost close to $19K.Your envy's nice, but if I was car shopping today I'd try out a Fiesta. New with zero K usually beats out used...But somehow I don't think a full size washing maching will fit in the Ford...

The Fiesta is being brought here to compete with a different segment:-Toyota Yaris-Scion xA-Honda Fit-Nissan Versa-Chevy Aveo-Hyundai Accent-Kia RioAnd maybe down the line the VW Polo and Mazda 2.The Vibe/Matrix compete more directly with:-Mazda 3 hatch-Subaru Impreza/WRX 5-door-Dodge Caliber-VW Golf.GTI 4 doorNow if only the Mazda and VW came with AWD options.

Good point Whelan about the Fiesta being a different class of vehicle.I haven't seen one yet, but today when I saw a Fit I just realized how small they are.
