    Galanttuner10 and 03-Galant-ES day out 10/17/09 cars at end of post...64 photos.

    We began the day by meeting up at my house and going to the LI Auto Show. We got there and we got offered test drives in 2010 Ford Fiestas I am in lime 5spd he is in maroon auto. The guys said go nuts so we tortured those tires I had foot flat on the floor in first on the doughnut.
















    Then we went down into the Auto show here are some cars and us goofing around a bit too. The sharp eyed ones amongst you will notice I cant fit my head in a corvette.





























    Then we went to go get lunch and we cruised down to Jones Beach for a photo shoot. Wish some more people showed it was a fun day.

    id think more let me google it. It is a 1.6L mazda engine and it gets about 40mpg combined. I would imagine around 45 highway.

    dude the 95 hp felt like 140 so 120 would prolly feel like 180-120 cuz its so light and those brakes and suspension were awesome

    yeah and when he told me they were disc and drum not 4 wheel discs i was so shocked

    The only complaint I have about that fiesta was the way you adjust the seats. Did you have to adjust them?
