Congrats on your new purchase.

I think the exterior of the Fiesta is really nice and I heard great things about how fun it is to drive that car. I also heard good things about the synch technology that they have.
However, I think we should wait at least 5 years to see if Ford really "stepped it up" or not because their problem has always been with the reliability of their vehicles. They always had nice looking cars (at least in Europe), but their reliability has been average at best.
The only thing I don't like about the Fiesta is the interior of the car. I think the center dash portion of the car looks very ugly but that's just personal taste.
Good luck with your purchase and have fun! Btw, I would have waited for the Focus. It seems nicer than the Fiesta and not much more expensive either.
