Autoblog has posted the official Ford press release and pics of the 2011 Ford Fiesta that will be debuting at the LA Auto Show.

I think the hatchback looks great and has a different and better front end than the sedan. Not sure what is going on with the sedan's odd open space just below the 3 bar. I guess they figure sedan buyers are more traditional and will get Fords chromed 3 bar grill. The hatchback is so much more practical and elegant on short cars.
Hoping that it is a fun drive and successful for Ford. They are certainly outpacing starting to outpace GM.
Autoblog is doing a good job posting on all the debuts lately.
