love it the same as when i bought it

I bought this car after mistakenly buying a Saturn. I get great gas milage, its comfortable, reliable, and sporty. My only complaint is it needs a little extra umph for passing other cars. I have put 26000 miles on it in a year and look foreward to putting another 26000 miles on it in the next year. It is a great car!

still the 1980's

I purchased a loaded Fusion Sport, $33,000 on the sticker. This car has everything. Unfortunately some of it does not work. I had the AC in 4 or 5 times last summer to 2 different dealers. I thought it was fixed but it is not working well now that it's getting hot out again. Molding fell off into the trunk. I had an oil leak that required removing the engine to fix. In the winter my power driver window would not stay up. These are basic things, not SYNC or some modern electronics. These should function properly on any new car. I'd been away from Ford for 20 years and am very sorry I went back. It's been a year of nothing but problems and still no fix on the AC.

anxious no more

We owned a Toyota Camry and although I heard good things about Ford, I was really anxious about not buying Toyota again. I waited one year before I said anything about this car - Bottom line: WOW, I love it. Much better made than our Camry, no problems and better gas mileage than advertised. I am now a loyal FORD buyer (my goodness).

One Sporty Ride.

The styling of this car is great and is what originally sold me on the car. The car stereo is really good as well. I recommend the Sport model if you are looking for a spirited ride. The seats are comfortable and if you live in a colder climate in the winter, I highly recommend either to have the heated seats or the remote start option. The car runs smooth on the highway but if the road is a little wet, be prepared to spin the tires a little, especially in the sport model. The only real downside I can come to would be the gas mileage. As such that would be the downside about the sport model. I am averaging about 19-20 mpg. All in all, the car is a reliable car and it rides nice. I would recommend it. Ford did it right for the Fusion.

Sporty, economical sedan I driven

this is my second Fusion I own , first was a 2006 with a 2.3 4cyl. Iwas sold then. 26000 miles later 2011 Fusion Sport ! which is a littrle more balance for my driving , plenty of power with 23 mi per gallon around town. on the highway its like a bullet. No wind noise , the faster you go the more stable it is. I feel that the v6 Fusion on the highway is more balance at higher sppeds then my 2006 4cyl. 06 front and seem to float more, or lighter at higher speeds. this could have been corrected with newer model years. For the money Fusion is a buy , compare to a accord , camry , etc. This Domestic car maker (Ford) got It !!

Great car

The last domestic car I owned was a '74 Mustang II. What a piece of #%(!! that was! It took me until my latest car search to even consider a domestic car. I looked at the Fusion and realized Ford has come light years since my last experience with them. I love my Fusion. Great mileage, comfort, amazing attention to details, just a wonderful car at a really reasonable price.

Fusion Sport = amazing

i am 20 years old now and have owned my 2011 fusion sport for almost a year now. I bought it with 26 miles on it and i currently have almost 15k. I have had no problems with it and it is the best car i have ever owned. The power is nice with the sport model, with great passing power. All the features are amazing, and ford did a wonderful job getting me this car, as you can imagine it would be hard for a 20 year old to buy a 30k car. I always get comments on it, and it definitely turns heads. I would recommend this car to anyone that is looking for a very well equipped car with lots of features and power, but not sacrificing fuel efficiency for a great price. 5 out 5 for me. :)
