    Aesthetically, the Mondeo is worlds ahead of the Fusion. Know anything about performance?

    You seem to be becoming obsessed with Ford Motor Co.

    BTW, I just hate the stubby, stunted look of the Fusion/Focus rear end.

    The Mondeo looks like a beamer.

    In BP’s defense, FoMoCo is the only American Automaker trying anymore.

    GM and Chrysler canceled nearly everything at the LA auto show this year. Ford rolled out the first American full-hybrid CAR.

    So there’s something there.

    That said, BP its not fair to compare the >old interior with no Nav to the Mondeo with Nav.

    Oh, goodie — I got it right!
    Roughly the same poll numbers would have resulted between the Mondeo and the Trabant 601.

    Honestly, the European cars are just more beautiful. There are only a few American cars that can aesthetically catch up. Anyway I do not like Ford for they really are low quality. I hope I do not offend anyone:)
