Joining an already impressive lineup at the 2012 SEMA Show, Ford has unveiled another pair of vehicles that will be in Las Vegas this week.

The American automaker joined up with B-Spec Magazine to build a 2013 Ford Fiesta that’s been refined to combine form and function. Candy paint on the exterior is accented by new wheels, and a suspension that gives the Fiesta a whole new stance. The team at B-Spec Magazine also outfitted the Fiesta with an all-new stereo system.

And to represent the Taurus model is a 2013 Taurus SHO powered by a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 with a six-speed SelectShift automatic transmission. CGS Motorsports was put in charge of the build, transforming the Taurus to “impress for a black-tie affair,” according to the automaker. Plenty of CGS Performance Products found its way on the customized Taurus, which AutoGuide will be sure to take a closer look at when the show opens its doors on Tuesday.
