Why do people compare a Ford to a BMW, Infinity, Volvo or an Acura? Completely differnt classes of cars, with different price points.

The old adage works here: You get what you pay for.




And I did. I got into a bone stock G35 6MT, out of a SVT Contour, so I think I'm qualified to respond. I'd say that the Fusion fully loaded will not be that much less than what I paid for the G35 (give or take a few grand).

My complaint is that Ford is now essentially a coach builder. They allow Volvo and Mazda to do all of the engine design and chassis development. Then they slap on a body that's so watered down from the concept car:





Ford is now basically Buick, getting vanilla hand me downs from it's sister companies. Blah.
