I did research the new ford fusion which is going to be based off the Ford Mondeo in Europe, after looking at that car its safe to say the fusion won't be to much different from its european counterpart, the interior does look to be improved but not enough for me to wait until spring to look at one. The only thing I may miss would be the ecoboost that they are most likely to get, although not sure whether the all wheel drive will be an ecoboost or V6 so it could be a wash anyway. Either way, the 2012 Fusion has been out for a while and has proven reliable and quality while I am fairly sure the new fusion will be fine, its not worth the wait, my wife is commuting 180 miles a day right now in a 2005 Envoy, waiting another 6 months will cost me a lot more in gas while waiting that we could be saving in the fusion.
