Went looking for a Focus. It didn't come in a hatch. Wanted a hatch, economy and low price. Test drove Fiesta and compared it to a Versa. Fiesta had it all over the Versa. Never looked back.

Yep even tho It's a dupe thread

I got mine as I want MPGs and wasn't going to buy a hybrid due to payment amounts.

Found a fiesta that worked, sedan S model and after getting my loan squared away and it finally arrived 2 days later to my dealer I drove off happy.

I have always wanted to buy American and the Fiesta was the first one that captured the euro hatchback, go-kart, fuel efficient essence of my Fiat 128 3P of the late 70's. (See stock photo attached.)

I installed Ferrari headers and when I downshifted my friends would be outside the house before I pulled in their lane!

This. This made me chose a Ford Fiesta.

After driving every single car in the 20,000 dollar price range I chose the fiesta, because it was the only one that offered the most features that I wanted, was practical for my needs, and was actually fun to drive.

Yaris, Curze, Aveo (when I bought the Fiesta), Accent, Focus, Corolla, Elentra, Mazda 2/3, Versa, Sentra, Fiat 500, Impreza and Golf. The Fiesta was the only one that was still fun to drive for under 20,000.

Simple. It would have been blasphemous to buy anything other than the Ford. I didn't even test drive it.
