silvrsvt Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 Fusion Titanium the way I want it is $37K before Z plan...hmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BORG Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 (edited) I don't see the red leather seats in the option mix, anybody know what happened there? None of the color options are appealing. And at 38K top-end, that's an awfully expensive Fusion with no interior color choices. No deal on my end.

silvrsvt Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 And at 38K top-end, that's an awfully expensive Fusion with no interior color choices. No deal on my end. The SE model comes with a dune option, but its apparently tied to a luxury package and if you pick the Sport package, its a black interior. I guess the focus groups didn't really care for the additional seat colors....and nearly the rest of Ford's lineup is either Black or Grey/Dune color.

They showed off the Fusion with Red leather seats at the AutoShow. I don't know if this has simply been delayed or is not making it to production, but I loved what I saw. In either case, I would not buy one with an all-black interior. Hello MKZ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sullynd Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Maybe they're saving the red for an ST model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MKZ starts 4K more then the most expensive Fusion also, and only offers Dune and another color besides black...on the non-official build and price... I know they showed it at the auto shows, but that also isn't final product. The "unoffical" build and price had multiple color interiors for the SE trim...

silvrsvt Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 oh I LOVE the dark "H" style rims they are offering on the Titanium model...they look great with the Ruby Red.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 I'm planning to get a loaded Titanium Ruby Red w/19" grey wheels. I actually wanted the black interior so that wasn't an issue. Mine is $32K X plan. FWD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aneekr Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 (edited) If any folks here who are considering the 2013 Fusion wish to peruse the owner's guide for that vehicle, it is available here. (15 MB PDF, 461 pp.) (Should the above link produce login related error messages, try the Motorcraft Service site, then choose 2013 Fusion under 'Owner Guides'.)

BORG Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 (edited) I'm one of those people that show up the dealership and say I want it black, I want to check EVERY box you have, and I want the interior between black and beige (usually Stone or Cashmere). If I can't get the top-end model with a light interior or some other interior besides popular options, deal is off! I actually bought the Edge Limited because the Sport only offered a black interior.

I've been saying it for a while now that I hate the fact the top trim Fords come with only a black interior these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spotdog14 Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Why can I not configure an SE with leather and the sports appearance package? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanh Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Why can I not configure an SE with leather and the sports appearance package? possibly because there ISNT a Sports package.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deanh Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 (edited) I'm sorry I meant the SE Appearance Package. I cannot get that and leather. correct, to get leather one must get package 205a, however, one can get the 18 inch wheels option 64b.

silvrsvt Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 I'm sorry I meant the SE Appearance Package. I cannot get that and leather. I'm assuming its because they are trying to force you into buying the Titanium model... But strangely enough I can get a leather equipped Focus with a Sport appearance package. Maybe its a configuration goof... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BORG Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 It's becoming obvious that there are some gaps in the configuration between SE and Titanium. They must have a yet-to-be-announced model in there, like a Sport or SEL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 I haven't checked the prices in Canada but I hope they are close (fingers crossed). As for the Focus: We have the SE Plus package which has the sport package AFAIK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And at 38K top-end, that's an awfully expensive Fusion with no interior color choices. No deal on my end. there has never been a "red" interior option, theres an alternative called DUNE ( leather )in the Hybrids and the SE gas Luxury Package, thats it. I will say this though, with enough griping from Customers Ford will add an alternative...foolish otherwise, and something they dont practice elsewhere.
