I like seeing all the positive comments around the Fusion Sport. Its a great car for being a normal car with a special engine. The Lincoln MKZ has the same 2.7l nano engine but just bored up to 3.0l to make 400 hp and 400 lbft. I feel like most car enthusiasts and journalists fell asleep on these (aka all of the "I completely forgotten about them" comments). These are cars that the average person could have afforded, not a $70,000+ mustang. And now that are discontinued

@@RC-jg2fz Funny that you mention the impala. I was actually shopping for a 2014+ Impala and was literally about to buy my neighbors, and then I saw the redesigned 2017 Lacrosse at a dealership and then went shopping for the Lacrosse. I didn't know the performance specs and wanted to make sure the Lacrosse wasn't slower, so I did a bit of research. The 2017 Lacrosse engine actually has the LGX which when dropped in the Buick puts out 310 hp and 282 lb-ft of torque per GM, 307 hp per SAE's official number ;). Without the sunroof and with 18's, curb weight comes in around 3610 lbs. The Lacrosse has no excuse to not be quick; however, I'm sure the engineers had to neuter the car with that much power on tap combined with the impressively low curb weight. Zero torque steer, but front tires will light up easily and the gears in the 8 speed are far too long and shift very slow. Not a MKZ 3.0 lol, but the Lacrosse is one of the most comfortable and quiet cars I have ever driver. Sadly, had full size sedans not met their demise, we would have been looking at 2020 Lacrosse Supers and Impala SSs.

The Fusion is a nice sedan with the Awd Sport being a nice starting point for building a Ford performance factory sedan along with the Forgotten Taurus SHO to compete with the Charger RT. Ford should have never dropped the Fusion and MKZ in the US. A dumb move. If I might mention. Try the Mustang EcoBoost HPP In your next test. It's basically an RS Mustang that has performance numbers close to the Mustang GT.

The guys saying that their 2.7 Fusions run high 13s stock at nearly 100mph are not lying. That's absolutely correct. Don't forget this race was a stock Fusion against a tuned Mustang. And don't be quick to doubt impressive numbers from a 2.7 with a seriously aggressive tune. They can be pretty quick.

That's not true, if tuned and you put it into sport mode and just tap the paddle down while keeping it in 1st, you can unlock the full length of all your gears while still shifting automatically right before redline

Probably bad rapsheet for their TSB on 1.5/2.0L Ecoboost engines causing melted/warped blocks due to coolant intrusion because of a design flaw. No recall, not owning up to their mistake and only replacing long blocks free of charge if you're extended warranty under 100K miles, over 100k, you're screwed. Even then, people are out a vehicle weeks in time. It's a powerful car, even the 2.0L with an intake and a protune would net 30-50HP. Making it 270-ish. It's insane.
