Test Drove a new Fiesta today at Carlisle All-Ford Nationals. I must say, it was quite enjoyable! 
Euro spec, 1.8 (1.6?) litre, 5-speed, 5-door hatch. White w/ gray interior. Oh, and black EAP style wheels
Their little test track wasn't nearly long enough for a sound thrashing... I think I cleared it in under a minute.... and never got above 2 gear.... but first impression is of a VERY well put together little car. I dare say this, in stock form, handles just as well as any Focus I've ever driven. It's light and moves quickly and whips around corners like a pro. Smooth shifting, GREAT visibility and a cozy interior. I give it a thumbs up!
And now the pics:
