This is Australia not the UK. Some people are never happy.

I would tick it. One thing that would be good would be having Bi Xenons.

Would tick that box without much thought. Best value pack in Ford Aust line up. Agree xenon on an ST would have been nice.

That's what "I'd" like, but the Mrs isn't a car person and doesn't drive manuals, so i'll try my best

Wouldn't own a 5 door hatch. Hopefully they bring out another Metal. But with the ST such good value, and the gap filled by the Sport, why would they...

Hi all,

Just went for a drive in the manual and auto in the new 3cyl 1.0L ecoboost which is in the new Fiesta Sport.

Awesome engine. Lots of torque and sounds pretty cool too! I actually liked the auto over the manual, but thats just me.

nope. maybe I'm alone, but it doesn't add anything for me.

- rear parking sensors - if you need these on a Fiesta you should consider if you should really be driving.
- perimeter alarm - why? what benefit is this?
- auto headlights - they never come on and off when I want them to. How hard is it to flick the swithc yourself?
- rain sensing wipers - diito.
- climate control - maybe, but considering how poor the control usually is probably stick with manual AC
- keyless push button start - gimmick.

I used to think keyless start was a gimmick, but after living with it for 4 months I wouldn't go back traditional remote locking/key start combo. It's so convenient.

The reverse sensors make (an already easy car to park) even easier to park. Wouldn't give them up.

The other features are kind of handy, but (for me) don't provide the instant tangible benefits.

As a package, I still think it's worth optioning up.

Yeah and you'll prob suffer for not picking up these options when it's resale time in a few years!
All cars are coming with these style features these days, makes life easy. I've got a FiST with all these features and they're awesome. I suppose you think "My Sync" is no good either.
For $1000 anyone who buys this car without the option package is an idiot, it's a total no brainer!
