About as far from "American Muscle" as you can get!

Tonight I had a chance to shoot a 2011 Ford Fiesta. Now normally, I shoot cars of a little higher caliber, but I've been reading a lot of good things about this car lately so I figured I'd check it out for myself. Despite being a rather feminine pinkish-purple that I'm sure Jox would just love, the car was actually a hoot to drive. It's amazing how a little bit of European influence can turn an otherwise junky econo-box into a stiff, grippy, and downright perky city rocket! It's hard to drive this little toy without a huge shit-eating grin on your face!

Anyway, on to some of the pics from tonight:

yeah, they were tiny. It's got rear disc brakes too.

But for $14K, it's a hell of a car.

In the UK the Fiesta is a 2 door car and much smaller.

They are also junk. Slow, poorly made and a womens car.

Is it any different in the US?

That aside, the photography in these shots is awesome!
