And you thought only Germans could be wacky. Think again, freund!
Like Smart, Ford is offering to sell you stickers for your new car. This assumes, of course, that your Ford happens to be a Fiesta and you have a yearning to make your car look 30 percent sillier.
You can choose from 18 different designs rendered in several different color options on "premium quality vinyl." Go to fordfiestagraphics.com and choose your most-est favorite. The company will not mail the vinyls to you though. You'll have to get them at your local dealer.
Also, you cannot create your own design at this time because, well, Ford knows that you'll just do something illegal like a line drawing of Calvin pissing on Calvin or something grotesque like a picture of hibiscus flowers.
We're currently lobbying Ford to create a life-size sticker of a 1994 Ford Aspire to apply to a 2011 Fiesta hatchback.
Tip o' the hat to xprojected for the, uh, tip.

okay enough of the flower cars, I lived through the last "flower power" fad, I don't want to go back.

Ford is targeting the Fiesta at youthful Millenials, a generation perceived as free-sprited creative types. Yeah, this stuff makes you want to gag, but it's all harmless, fluffy marketing. If it helps sell Fiestas profitably, more "flower" power to Ford.
