i still remember that i drove down all the way from Shah Alam to Bandar Utama to have a glimpse on the Ford Fiesta when they were having roadshow at 1 Utama Shopping Complex... and indeed it was a fantastic car with futuristic hi-tech dashboard coupled with it's sleek aerodynamic body... the best part, is the rear light... it's just superb sleek and sexy hahaha... ;p and i fell in love with it instantly...
back then, they only managed to import 1 car in from SG for display only and they doesn't have any cars ready for customer to perform test drive... therefore they actually loose out to their erm... competitor + partner (partner becoz both car manufacturer share the same Thailand plant to produce Mazda 2 and Fiesta) whom is Mazda and surprisingly have had the roadshow for it's Mazda 2 on the same weekend, same place hahaha...
of coz i did went over to Mazda 2 to have a look, but then sadly it's design is too old fashion compared to Fiesta hahaha... ;p so Fiesta won... however, the only problem with Fiesta is that it has taken ages to roll out from the Thailand factory resulting in Mazda 2 being on the road months ahead of them... so they were beaten on sales figure for those who can't wait...
