I actually sell Fords let me know if you need me to run a carfax for you I'll be back at work tomorrow. The fusions are a great dd they're not exactly fast but I think the 2.0 EB has some potential sounds like you're getting some good deals just make sure you check the carfax the cheapest deal doesn't necessarily mean the best deal.

That is great to know VTX,being in the Ford buisiness anyone ever approach you in regards to tuning or mods after or before purchasing a vehicle,would be nice to get an inside perspective on that matter,cause fortunetly my dealer is pretty cool with mods,maybe some personal insight will help others or shed some light in how to approach this delicate matter and could benefit others,thanks.Z.

Well luckily I haven't had any misfortunes with my car yet but some of the techs know I'm tuned and I told them if it ever needs to go to service to look the other way lol. Yea I already got a few of my buddies to go see Erick from LET. Most of my co-workers are Mustang guys and are modded too.

Thanks for the input guys.    Found another one; 2013 in white (which i like) with no nav but it only has 16k on it and is a CPO vs the ugly "eggplant" which has nav but double the miles and is non-CPO.  The white one is listed at $24.5k but I'm willing to pay $21.5 vs the $20k for half the miles and the color I want.   I'll be calling tomorrow. 

I realize the car isn't fast, just want an AWD daily driver that's comfortable and can get out of its own way.  As I mentioned, I'm coming out of a Civic hybrid, and I'm not really into cars anymore.   If I wanna go fast, I hop on my stage 2 V-Rod.

I'm sure a tune would fix that "no-go-fast" problem ;)

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Well I just called the dealer with the White car and they said they own it for $25k!!!! 

So that's out.... Looks like the ugly eggplant is a phenomenal deal...

So I take delivery on Wednesday.   Been a while since I had a turbo car that was decent.  Here are a few I had in the past...

'03 WRX - 330 AWHP - 18g turbo, lotsa mods (back in '05 that was a lot lol)


'05 Corvette C6 - 604 RWHP - APS twin-turbo, lotsa mods


'06 Mazdaspeed 6 (bone stock)


Started on a '90 Talon TSi (stock) and had a '91 Galant VR4 (boost controller, some minor mods).   Now I'm still mostly vested in bikes, but it'll be nice to have a decent daily driver.   Well, daily for 3-4 months a year anyway.   Friggin winter...
