Nice pics, love the color... and a great back drop too!
I take it you got the illuminated gear knob. Can I ask how much? Was fitting extra?

Nice. The interior looks good that colour, so much better than grey.

Great shots mate the car looks good. I like the night dash shots only because I haven't seen it with all the light on. TA! The illuminated gear knob looks cool too.

Enjoy the car mate.

Thanks for the nice comments guys.

I know... I should have had the radio on when I took that night picture. Only realised my mistake when I was uploading them. I couldn't be bothered taking the picture again. _

I paid $132 for the illuminated gear knob due to staff pricing. The RRP for the assessory is $190. They were kind enough not to charge me for installation. I would expect however that labour costs to install it would be on the high side due to the complex natural of its installation. Wiring for the gear knob goes as far as under the front seat.

Shouldn't cost that much. From memory I think it was somewhere close to around $150 RRP. You can put those on yourself in less then 5 mins. Just a case of following the provided instructions. Very easy.

What a strange colour. You know in most of the pictures of this colour on the website and such it looks green... But then I saw pictures of a car and it looked blue.. But now seeing this you can see the green tint in the sunlight. I guess at night under street lights it's green?. Has anyone else noticed that every colour you can get these things in looks equally good? they must have spent alot of time choosing the colours. I would like to see a proper dark green, British racing or such

Interesting. I just noticed that the 5 door model doesn't get the side skirt moulding and the 3 doors do.

Nice Fiesta by the way

Never seen an illuminated gear knob before, I don't mind it, the car is a very nice looking little hatch.

Great looking little car mate! Great colour too! The only thing I don't like about them is how small the 16 inch rims look, especially on the 3-door because of the bigger door. Meh, I still much prefer the 3-door, and stuff shelling out $2,000 for bigger rims!

Thanks again guys for the nice comments.

I just recently found out that the colour I got (Cedar) will no longer be available for order after July. Looks like I got a rare colour. I guess not enough people ordered it.

Who wants to take bets on Magenta arriving post July?

Killer, the light over the glove box are they globes or a row of LEDS?

We have picked our car up and were just wondering. Adds a nice touch to the interior. I need to get globes for the footwall as ours didn't come with any.

Cheers

I think it's just light leakage from all the other red lights under the dash

Ours has a plastic cover strip over the lit area above the glovebox and what looks like individual LED's underneath it.

Red in our case.

Could be normal bulbs each side and just using reflectors as it is brighter each end but they look like individual LED's. Definately purposely lit though on ours.

Sorry I didn't reply earlier.

I’m pretty sure its a strip of Fibre optics. The light goes through it from the left.
