The Ford Fiesta is an excellent front-wheel drive base for a project car, as it has a very good chassis, excellent steering and is fun to drive even in completely-stock form. A very clean modified version of the car has been unveiled at the SEMA show, in Las Vegas, done by Marketing in Motion, based in Irivne, California.
It is based on the SE trim car, and it features a 1.6-liter Ti-VCT engine, and Ford’s six-speed PowerShift automatic transmission. The power of the engine is slightly boosted by a K&N air intake, and a ‘Tuned Society’ exhaust, giving the car better throttle response, rather than outright power.

On the suspension side, it gets H&R Super Sport springs, which lower the car’s stance, as well as improve cornering grip and performance. The exterior gains an aggressive-looking Ford Custom Accessories 3dCarbon body kit, blacked out headlights and a custom while pearl coat by Rod Benders. It is finished off with special pin striping and a different lower grille, courtesy of Tuned Society.

Inside, it gets Katzkin Pearl leather and Raven Suedezkin seats, with contrasting red stitching, pin stripes, sport pedals, red interior light kit, and a complete sound system by Kicker. This is a really cleanly done car, which would undoubtedly appeal to any Fiesta owner, as it is still close enough to the standard car to make it seem like a plausible personal investment.
