Something pretty close to the Mondeo is the upcoming Mazda6.....

3.0L Duratec 220hp with VVT....

We all know it will handle VERY well, heck, its a Mazda......double wishbown front suspension.... E-Type Multi Link in the rear...

Sure it doesnt have the power of an Altima, but it weighs a little less and will absolutely eat the Altima up in the twisties.... Throw on an intake, headers and exhaust and I dont see hitting at least 240HP out of the question......
