I'm looking at Ford's 2010 Fiesta.

Little car to compete with the Honda Fit, and other subcompacts.

I like small cars, but I'm wondering if I shouldn't hold out for Ford's F-100 with V6 direct injection engines. It's supposed to be only slightly smaller than the F150, and the V6 is supposed to get awesome mileage while still pulling like a V8.
