LSFan00 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 One of them is a dodge. By default, the Fusion wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silvrsvt Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 One of them is a dodge. And a fairly ugly one at that (IMO) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wescoent Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Honestly, the Avenger isn't a bad car from a design perspective, and I'm sure it drives well. The main problem is that it's a 3/4 baked car, with many shortcomings that could be easily corrected. The interior could be of better quality, the dynamics could be finer-tuned, the motors could be much better, etc. The Fusion experiences this to an extent, but I feel the Fusion is about 98% of the way from being a class leader, where the Avenger is 75% of the way to being competitive with class leaders. The Avenger could be very strong with nice big chrome wheels, a 300hp turbo, and priced under $28,000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roadrunner Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Avenger has the looks, but I'm not sure if it's enjoyable to drive. Fusion also has the looks, but it is fun to drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extreme4x4 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Fusion recalls: 0 Avenger recalls: 1 Avenger gets the higher score. Woohoo :D Who wins................ well, I guess it depends on what you mean by wins. If the Avenger is anything like the Sebring, I expect them to sell like gangbusters. After all, the first two Sebrings that my local dealership had.............. are still there. Maybe they are waiting for the local Enterprise office to need some???

BORG Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 (edited) Overall I think the Anvenger looks best, but like all Chrysler's, they look better from the outside than the inside....or underneath Edited March 21, 2007 by BORG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retro-man Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 (edited) A manumatic module plugged onto an old transmission with really slow shifts. No, I like the transmissions many Ford products are being fitted with these days for "enthusiast" driving: 2 speeds: forward and reverse. Very similar to driving a golf cart. p.s. Funny someone should post this though - I have had a couple of fleeting adolescent thoughts about which of these cars could be moded to better effect.

Traveler Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 First off, I don't subscribe to the brand loyalty sentiment wholeheartedly. If I judge one better than the other, I'll say it. If I like enough to buy it over the other model, I would. I like Ford a lot but won't buy anything Ford throws out there. That said, the Fusion (to me) is a more handsome car overall and the interior is considerably better. The Avenger has a decent sporty look, but the interiors of the Sebring and Avenger look to be a result of cost-cutting measures. The Ford brand as a whole, in its class, owns both GM and Chrysler...and Toyota in my HONEST opinion. Toyotas are the most overrated, bland interiors I've seen. GM, particularly Chevrolet, are terribly cheap. After looking at the Chevrolets at the local show, I was convinced that I wouldn't pay anywhere close to sticker for any of them, except for the Corvette! I will say this, though. Lincoln is making some of the ugliest interiors I've seen in a looong time. They look like 1970-ish console televisions. Yuck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

96 Pony Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Isn't this comparison sort of like cheering at the Special Olympics? Actually I have ridden in both. I like the styling of the Fusion better but the interior of the Avenger is heads above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Reynolds Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Actually I have ridden in both. I like the styling of the Fusion better but the interior of the Avenger is heads above. Really? The fit and finish in those cars leaves a lot to be desired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
