but is there a back up camera... lol

edit looks like updated tailights, looks good.

 

[TDavis]

Thankfully the same colors offered as in the year 2017 models. If they brought back blue/red/green I would have been pissed lol

 

[Manta Ray]

im on the edge trading my kona 16 for a orange 18, or a white... probably orange. I want orange seats.

Yes there is: https://www.ford.com/cars/fiesta/features/smart/

I don't see any change to the taillights? What do you see?

 

[Plainrt]

They aren't making a fiesta in 18......

It looks like the camera isn't an option on the ST, when you click on the ST specific page and go down to features, it isn't listed. When you look at the Fiesta Platinum though, camera is listed on it's interior features.

Looks like it's exactly the same as a 2017, just brought into 2018. Maybe the US is getting one more year of Fiestas while factories use up their spare parts?

You're right, it's stated as Standard for Platinum trim and not available for the others. That's odd because the brochure states that the camera is standard for all trim. And don't you have a new law in US that all vehicle from 2018 and onward must be equiped with backup camera?

Looks like vehicles manufactured after May 2018 need to have them (source: Wikipedia)

The tails look different from the 16, probably same as the 17...

lol

 

[CGLENN27]

Four color options.....lol wow. Oh and if you want an actual color, pay extra

I think they are the same, they just add a dark shade to them to look better lol

Tons of manufacturers are slimming down on options nowadays, colors included. No matter the manufacturer it's likely you'll pay at least a few hundred for a "premium" color so this isn't anything unique.

Having less options can keep overall costs a lot lower, try and customize a Hyundai online, last I checked there's a few colors and one or two other things to choose from for most models.

Regardless, I still think its ridiculous.

I actually like the slightly darker taillights. Would the Lamin-x tint shade result in a similar effect?

This is good news, I'm glad it'll be around for another year.

 

[Bluedrank]

Lol to all the guys who insisted that the current model wouldn't be continued to 2018 even after the fleet ordering sheets showed up at Ford.com. Told ya.

Now we just need an ST200 model to end the FiST in the US.

 

[XR650R]

It's just leftovers from 2017, right? No difference. Not the 3 cylinder model.

I'm just about to buy a 2017 FiST. I'm very excited!

I'm with ya there. I'd imagine that would work. I have noticed though on some of the lamin-x I've seen, it almost has like a brown-ish tint to it (which i hate).

I think it's pretty damn sad the regular fiesta gets the lightning blue and chili red........ thank you ford for another year of great colors
