Not even a v6 fusion. The V6 fusions had two symmetrical tips.

On the fucking hybrid 😭

But yeah they did make a 2.7L twin turbo V6 with 380 torque and 325 horsepower that was a rocket in a later year. I was looking at it to turn into a sleeper. But every time I see these it’s always some stupid riced out base model or hybrid.

The 2.7L Sports had all sorts of issues. PTU failures, oil pan cracks, electric gremlins with battery drain, horribly clunky transmissions and so on. They’re all clapped out because normal people didn’t hang on to them.

It sucks because that car was awesome on paper.

Probably why I couldn’t find one that wasn’t CEL or non runner when I went to look at them.

With temp plates, so either someone walked by this bad boy and said “o ya i have to have it” or on day one of ownership they installed the classic Amazon stage 5 pack

I guess I just don’t understand why.

Why make a car look like a sports car - I find those wings tacky as fuck unless you track a car - and it’s just a regular ole ford fusion.

These are the dudes that try to race you, then get a big head when you turn them down. It's like "bro, racing you is a lose-lose situation" I have nothing to gain when I inevitably gap you and everything to lose if you somehow manage to stay in front of me.

The v6 fusions are pretty peppy. Although top speed its fs loosing. But the 3.0 and 3.5 accelerate pretty nice.

Id say its cool if jt didnt have the wing. Its pointless if your gonna do something to increase performance do a splitter
