    They need to change more than the Aveo's styling and name. Maybe they will, the Cruze is a big improvement over the Cobalt

    I haven't even had a glimpse of a Fiesta since its introduction . Has Ford sold any yet? H

    Ford really pushed the Fiesta, I expected to see allot of them by now. H

    In my opinion, the Fiesta is overpriced. This thing is just plain ugly.

    That's my view but I thought it might have been styled especially for the US market and meet with your particular requirements and decided to keep quiet.

    Personally it looks like a car that has had the front end chosen as an after thought and transplanted from a much larger car. It looks like a dog with a cows head.

    Yeah, I know that dog but it is much more attractive than this car.

    It reminds me of the latest Mitsubishi Colt. I see more Pagani Zondas on the roads than this.

    A small car needs more than styling in order to sell. The current Aveo is a penalty box on wheels, so they better start all over.

    This Chevy looks pre-crashed with its squashed front end.

    I think the Cruze is much better looking. But again, overpriced in my opinion. You woulld think GM could turn a profit with those prices.
