| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 110-horsepower 1.6L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
i went in with set price and style i wanted, i got it. insurance was cheap on it. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 110-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The car in base model is very resonably priced in my opinion. Even my LX (ps, ac, am/fm cd) was a great deal. The dealership gave the max. on my trade in (110%) and I drove away with a payment $50 less per month and 2 years less! |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 110-horsepower 1.6L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
$14K for a car like this is pretty good. |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 96-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
It came with AM/FM/CD, power steering and air conditioning for $6995 for a new car. |

| 2011 | 4dr Sedan 120-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automatic FWD |
For the standard amenities and options as compared to Cobalt and several other makes/models Fiesta had the best "bang for the buck" of them all. |
| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 120-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automatic FWD |
$2,000 off MSRP the day after Christmas |
| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 120-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
It is a great value. |
| 2011 | 4dr Sedan 120-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automatic FWD |

| 2011 | 4dr Sedan 120-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
