Default new company car *warning ford inside*

Of course I still have my Camaro, but my company car (IE free daily driver) is now a 2010 Ford Fusion SEL, sport blue metallic outside, black cloth inside. I plan to get leather seat covers and HIDs.

The Ford sedans are pretty nice. The Fusion is a good car but I wouldnt mind having a SHO as a dd either.

You know, i hate to say (since im a GM fan) but the fusion is a great car. Its only a 4-banger (LS1 swap would be SICK!!!) but it gets great gas mileage (about 27 on the freeway, 23 or so on the street) and its has great suspension. I take turns pretty fast and it has minimal lean and sticks it pretty well. If it had the ecoboost motor (SHO motor) it would be a great car.

Ive been good nacho. been very busy, i moved to Aliso Viejo, then since that place sucked, we moved again to Irvine 3 weeks later. Now that were settled in Irvine i brought my camaro over so I should be going to meets again.

are you actually trying to sell it? I dont imagine youd have a hard time, its one of the cleanest cars ive ever seen.


So on the fusion, Im thinking ill get tint soon, i feel like im in a fish bowl. I might see if i can get a deal getting the camaro done as well, maybe the wifes mini too.

I just thought about it, i have a red camaro, white mine, and blue fusion. Im patriotic.

Thanks man, I try to keep it clean. But nobody wants a FWD V8 car and KBB value is killing me. $31k sticker on the car. KBB with 23k miles on the car is barely $15k.

I had one of those as a rental when I went to Florida.. It was a surprisingly nice car!

Ford is stepping up. GM is going to really have to kick it up a notch. IMO, Ford is beginning to really put together a better quality, better built lineup than GM. I just hope it encourages GM to step it up again and get back in the game fully.

Oohhh....you should get those fake vent thingys for each side of the front fenders and put some go-fast stickers on that puppy. That should be good for almost +20hp if you do the 4-banger ricer math you know...LOL

Hows the new place? you must be right behind the old Circuit Schitty no?
