<a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/06/07/ken-block-soliciting-ideas-for-gymkhana-three-winner-gets-a-fre/">Ken Block</a> isn't a World Rally Championship legend by any stretch, but thanks to his immensely entertaining <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/06/14/ken-block-launching-gymkhana-grid-turning-hoonage-into-motorspo/">Gymkhana videos</a>, the glorified shoemaker can definitely lay claim to the title of YouTube Legend. And with Ford working the Internets hard during the launches of its new products like the <a href="http://autoblog.com/model/fiesta/">Fiesta</a> and <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/explorer">Explorer</a>, it made total sense that Ford would want to partner with the new media star. <br />
<br />
The duo of Fiesta and Ken Block is less than a year old, but already there are some rumblings that Block edition Fiesta could be in the works. How about a DC Shoes edition Fiesta? In a recent radio interview with KROQ, Block was asked if there was a KB Fiesta on the way, and he responded with "we're discussing those types of things but there's nothing set in stone at this point." Block went on to add that for now, he wants to concentrate on racing and developing new competition cars.<br />
<br />
So, no definitive news on the Ken Block edition Fiesta front, but the two parties are at least thinking about a special model. We can't see how this is a bad idea, considering that 30 million potential car buyers waiting patiently for Gymkhana 3 - we couldn't think of a better way to announce a special edition Fiesta than by starring in another Block-buster internet flick (sorry, we couldn't resist). Head over to the <a href="http://kroq.radio.com/2010/07/27/exclusive-x-games-interview-ken-block/#more-38493">KROQ website</a> to listen to the interview. <em>Hat tip to Joe B!</em><br />
