falconman13 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Was messing around with a Fusion Coupe, The roof is straight from the Iosis concept. I think the Fusion would make a great convertable. Not sure about the coupe. What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LincolnFan Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 I am getting a rice feeling of the coupe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
focalxplosion Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 Nice work. However I don't think the design language mixes well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twintornados Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 I don't have photoshop but can I suggest using a setup like the Fairmont Futura/Mercury Zephyr Z7 of the early 80's as a style type for the two door coupe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadrunner Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Oh god no. Too swoopy. Looks like a Pontiac Grand Am, or an 2door Alero. Give it square lines and a square roof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falconman13 Posted April 9, 2007 Author Share Posted April 9, 2007 Ok, then we are back to a 2 door Fusion with the same roof etc.. Just 2 doors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark B. Morrow Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Ok, then we are back to a 2 door Fusion with the same roof etc..Just 2 doors I like that better. It would do well against the Accord coupe and Solara. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchdevil Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Ok, then we are back to a 2 door Fusion with the same roof etc..Just 2 doors Yuk.... It just looks like a two door SEDAN version of a Fusion. I would keep pursuing the right fastback coupe roofline and closed in quarter windows to give it a more personal look. There is no sense in Ford ever pursing a Fusion coupe unless it can be special and much more distinctive than a sedan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Voltage Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 the rear window should curver down (like the 99-02 cougars) not up. i want one though so bad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meelaan Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 This subject perked my interest this afternoon, so I worked up a practical concept for a Fusion Coupe. I my mind's eye, I envision that if Ford had the gonzos to produce a Fusion Coupe, the only way it could work was if it were a high performance model (ST designation, perhaps). Think GTO, but with a 3.5L V6. Front and rear spoilers have been added along with a rear lower valance extension. Larger, coupe-specific multi-spoke rims would be available in bright chrome. The rear tail light treatment would be unique to the coupe just as it is for the Accord Coupe. The rear window is given a further slope that comes closer to the leading edge of the trunk lid, but maintains the angled "kink" of the rear roofline. This just barely stretches the B pillar, giving a sportier "fastback" look that remains practical. Side bumper gaurd trim is also removed for a cleaner profile. Let's see what you think... :blah: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
focalxplosion Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Let's see what you think... :blah: That's on the right track, but maybe a lower rear roofline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twintornados Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Put the rear bumper fascia on it from the Milan and go with the tail lamp treatment from Milan without the inserts in the trunk...I think that would look great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like the closed in smaller rear quarter windows with thick C-pillar which is reminiscent of the classic Tbirds... I agree the taillamp is wrong though. I would also suggest a variation of the Milan rear end treatment with the shorter lens height and horizontal stretch across the decklid to help do away with the overdone by the industry triangular wraparound look.

Ford-150 Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 i think it should just be a sedan, good work with photoshop though, might look better from a different angle though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cougarexp Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I think the version from April 9 looks great. I prefer 2-doors with a squared off roof. More like a 2-door sedan, not a "coupe" fastback, nor a hatchback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparky1520 Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 (edited) Let's see what you think... :blah: I like it, I just used yours Meelaan ( nice stuff), I shrunk it quick in paint for a more distinct look from the aleros,g3,granda ms, cavaliers,sunfires,etc. Just my 1.87 cents. my hack version on top.

Furious1Auto Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 (edited) Here's one I did a-while back: I think you just hit on a solution to overdoing the standard three bar grille! If the whole line-up gets it then it will take away the originality of the Fusion and the Edge! Edited July 12, 2007 by Furious1Auto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
