You know what ad makes me go :gotme: The Mercury Mariner ad that says it’s _“winning over lots and lots of Honda and Toyota owners.”_ I always wait for the fine print that gives the source for this claim, but it never appears :gotme:

Because they never give any numbers, or say that Honda and Toyota drivers said they’d prefer the Mercury (Blech) over honda and toyota… They are just being :snky:

mazda 6 rebadged in true ford style

Actaully even though it’s based off the Mazda 6 platform, it does have a longer wheelbase and different suspension components. It’s a decent car, and while quite a leap it still lags behind a bit.

All in all though it seemed fairly solid when I was looking at them.

I think the most annoying thing about the fusion commercials is that they rave about the value of the AWD Fusion, then show the price for a base FWD model at the end…

how does the hp and milage compare to the wrx. i don’t think subaru offers a V6 anymore either. personaly i like low end tq. don’t get my wrong i love the wrx but the lag is a bitch sometimes. also i know subaru isn’t exactly known for great milage. all and all the think the fusion is a good value on paper. its no rocket…yet but when the 2 new models come out things will get interesting for sure.

note i’ve never been in a 2.5 wrx only fuzzys 2.0.

There is a noticable difference in the torque between the two.
