I was over my sisters place last night for my Nephew's 3rd B-day party and my Bro-in-law got his Fusion Hybrid this past weekend. I didn't get to drive it, just sit in it with my nephew crawling all over me and pushing buttons LOL
Anyways things that stood out to me:
First off I'm totally impressed that the dealership got him the car so quickly. He placed the order back at the end of March to get the full Tax Credit. I was expecting a bunch of BS run-a-around with the car considering how popular it is etc etc
The interior quality is top notch. The materials are really nice in it and it fixed a major complaint I had with the Fusion..the door panels where cheap looking on the previous Gen model. I totally loved the HMI on the IP panel, would love to see that in other Ford Products
I was pleasantly surprised at the tailend of the car. In the photos, I never noticed that there was additional scupting that went around the tag mount into the tail lights. I really got a strong European look inspired by the Monedo after seeing this.
The grill looks really good in person, not as overpowering as I thought it was going to be. I saw my first 2010 Fusion in NYC last Saturday for a moment and it looked good.
After seeing all this I guess it wouldn't be too bad if I didn't get an SHO and settled for a Fusion Sport instead
