Ford is going to take the stage by storm at the 2010 SEMA show this November with a number of highly customized Fiestas. Ford realizes that small and efficient cars like the Fiesta has great potential for customization, but they must not be aware that the current Fiesta looks best as standard and changing it can very well ruin it, as you see with Ford’s own custom jobs here!
They’re all awful to be honest, but who cares anyway, becasue SEMA is all about insane modifications! The focus here is on the exterior, with crazy body kits and paint jobs as well as huge wheels. But there’s a few programs for the car’s EcoBoost engines as well, one with up to 350 hp output.
“The Fiesta is one of those vehicles that resonates with everybody – especially with the younger market. Whatever you’re into, it works,” said Melvin Betancourt, Ford specialty design manager. “It lends itself to a lot of different themes. It’s a perfect fit for the aftermarket and for customers who want to express their personality.”
“SEMA offers the perfect opportunity to showcase all the different ways the personalities of the Fiesta can be expressed,” said Sam De La Garza, Fiesta brand manager.
“It really shows how Fiesta can be accessorized and how this canvas can be altered to meet many different customer wants and desires,” De La Garza said. “SEMA represents a special opportunity, because we can show off unique designs that other companies have created. It’s not just Ford coming to the table. It’s other companies interpreting what Fiesta is, and bringing their own style to the Fiesta launch.”
