I feel Ford needs to make some cooler, better looking cars. Sure, the Fusion is okay, but its nothing that people will say, "Wow! Look at that car!!! A Ford Fusion!!" Its not, and it never will be. I guess what I am trying to say is that Ford is not appealing to the younger crowds. The 16-25 year old car buying market is pretty big and unless you are between those ages and have a baby you prolly don't have any interest in getting that car. We are comparing this car to the Kia Sephia and Hyundai Sonata..not impressing anyone in the younger crowd.
That demographic doesn't have all that much money to burn. That is where the Focus comes in. Available in 2 door, hatch, sedan, & wagon. Ample mods available, low sticker, good handling. Made for the younger set.
The Fusion is rather tasteful & understated. Old guys like me like that. Drop in a 3.5 & I'd take a look at one.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.
