Ford Fiesta ST500 Limited Edition

A little before the current European Fiesta gives its place to an all-new model, Ford has released a limited edition version of the sporty ST. Following in the footsteps of the Focus ST500 that was revealed in late 2007, the Fiesta ST500 doesn’t bear any mechanical changes, retaining the same 150Hp 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine as the standard version. Instead, the Fiesta ST500 is distinguished by unique styling touches and extras.

The Fiesta ST500's features include the Panther black metallic paint along with the 'U'-shaped silver bonnet and side strips that are meant to echo the livery of the classic Escort RS2000. Additionally, the Fiesta ST500 comes equipped with 17-inch 11-spoke black alloys, red brake callipers, carbon fibre pattern interior trim, a Sony audio system and ebony leather heated seat. -More pics after the jump
