Ok, what is this supose to replace? I sure as hell hope not the CV. Is this maybe a thing like the nissian maxima and altima/toyota avalon and camery type of thinking?? WTF???

Not sure but looking at the pic, check the guy out in the background, he is cleaning up after everyone :puke: saw that Silver Tonka truck.

From what I hear on the news this is Ford's mid-size entry into the market. The reporters seem to like it better than the 500. However, I think your message makes a nice contrast with the Fusion on top and then the MM's underneath. I can't believe anyone who's driven an MM would try to fold themself into a Fusion.

WTF, first we get the 300 and all its fugly cousins with 300 + h.p. now a wrong wheel drive Impala with 300 h.p. and a GTO with 400h.p. and Ford answers with this?

Con Fusion , Caddy lights, Camry/ Volvo body style and ricer tail lights.

Hello, earth to Dearborn , is anyone home, Hello,.............. Hello.

Official end of rant. :censor:

Ford won't be coming out with anything more powerful or fast than their beloved Mustang.

They've dropped the ball....and it will become more apparent when they wake up and have to play catch up to Dodge and GM along with several imports.

I wouldn't be buying any Ford stock the next few years.

Come on guys, this car is in no way meant to replace the Marauder or CV. Its a "C" class car built off the Mazda 6 platform. Its actually a very nice car if thats the size vehicle youre looking for. If youre looking for a full size car this aint it. There will be a Mercury (Milan) and a Lincoln version of it too. Trust me, there is some nice cars coming down the pike. These cars have been well recieved, something that has been missing from the Ford mid size lineup.

Yes im a Ford employee and worked on the CAD design of this car. Maybe im biased. Its a nice car but it wont replace my MM.

Let me guess,
its going to come with Ford's cookie cutter 3.0L Duratec V6.....I also love how Ford is using that same instrument cluster in the Taurus, Escape, Five Hundred, Freestyle, and now the Fusion.........

Matt, I'm just trying to understand where this is in the lin-up of cars.

Will it be the sedans Focus, Fusion, Five Hundred, and Crown Vic; whith coupes as the Mustang, and GT?
