If I needed a 4 door sedan, I'd be in a scat pack charger in a heartbeat.

Well now that it is officially official lol I am sold on the Fusion Sport as my next DD (unless the F-150 becomes more affordable lol)

Can't wait until I get the chance to take one for a test drive!

Only thing I noticed in the photos that I am not a fan of is the dial for the gear select.

Wish it had the 10 speed from the new Raptor and they used the ST name, but it looks like it might be my wife's next car.

I am actually glad they used Sport instead of ST. If it were an ST then IMO it owuold have to have much more aggressive styling like the Focus and Fiesta. Because this is a midsize car, I like the more subtle styling they used and Sport fits better than ST IMO.

This looks very tempting. Wish this motor would find its way into the Mustang one day.

Sorry I bought the winning ticket this morning.:cheers:

So did you win anything... I didn't :/

I think they called it a sport and not a ST because of the automatic. Just a guess because every ST is stick.

I'm still kinda in shock they actually used the v6 turbo. It's just a tune away from being a monster. Interesting that it's placed in pricing right with the Focus RS. For 35k idk which I would go with, pros and cons to both.

That is interesting that they are right in line price wise

I have a feeling the Fusion will be a little easier to get your hands on. I am seriously considering changing my order to a Fusion order. This thing is going to be awesome.

A Fusion Sport will be MUCH MUCH easier to get a hold of than a Focus RS...

Dealers are going to be gouging on the "extremely rare and limited production, rally purposed Focus RS"...mark my words (The quotes are what I imagine crook dealers will use to justify doing "raffles" and asking $5,000-$10,000 over)

I can't wait to go test drive one of these. Since I got rid of my Mustang I have been wanting to get something practical yet still fun to drive. This should fit the bill quite nicely.

I'm in the exact same position. I currently drive a Focus after getting rid of my GT, and I'm also looking at something practical with power and some fun factor.

Can't wait to go test one. Always thought the Fusion looked great but just needed some more power.

I'll buy one as soon as they are offered with a 5.0 6 speed RWD setup

Is that confirmed "limited production RS"? Talking to a local dealer yesterday who said they had eight Focus RS cars coming. The same dealers allocation was only one 2016 350R and one 350 (so far). I have been waiting to see the GT 350R in person. Didn't even go down the ADM mark-up question with the guy.

Yeah I have thought about a Focus ST, but I am not a fan of the way the options are packaged together. Also I wouldn't mind something a little bit larger. I have been holding out for a Fusion Sport for some time and now I just can't wait to go test drive one. I really miss having something fun to drive on a daily basis.
