What you all say is true. Its not performance oriented... but trust me, ive been with 5 Renault Sport Clios in the twisties at 90kmh with TORRENTIAL rain, and i can tell you the Fiesta does handle. Before it started to rain, they got me on the exit of corners, but id get them at the start of the corner and stick with them the whole way through.

I think the reason why we want more power is because the Fiesta engine is such a free revving engine, and loves to play into its high rpm.... just that when its there, it makes alot of nice sounds, but doesnt really go.....
