what we want, and what car manufactuers think we want are 2 different fields.

ford fails because they keep having these awesome cars available in europe, yet we know we would NEVER ever get the chance to see something of that quality here in north america.

You do know Fiesta is coming next year.. so is Mazda 2.

The problem is a lot of people who got into small cars last year are regretting it... especially now when oil prices have moderated.

Ford is getting better, the Focus is now very close to the EU model, but it took almost 10 years for that to happen.
