I currently own a 2002 Oldsmobile Aurora with almost 110k miles and it's showing its age. For what I can get out of it, I'm kind of at the point where I don't want to put any major work into it because it doesn't make sense to me. I've been eyeing the 2010-12 Fusion Sports for quite a while now and currently have my eye on a white '12 with just under 56k miles for $14k. I was curious if any of you had any opinions or useful information to offer on these cars. From what I have gathered, the only thing this one doesn't have is the AWD and two tone interior.
Is this a car I can depend on to last me quite a while? I'm going to be 23 this year and this will be my 3rd car, 2nd ford. My first car was a 2001 Taurus and it had a weird quirk that made me uneasy and I traded it in after 6 months for my current car. I would consider myself as more anti ford, but their lineup has become increasingly more appealing to me over the past few years. My biggest complaint is the button heavy dashboard on the non navigation models. I've never really needed navigation in the past, and if I did I would just use my phone lol. I just cant stand the look of all those buttons call me picky.
I feel its time to put on my big boy pants and get a decent car. I may not purchase this exact one due to my time constraints and at the mercy of it being available when I do have the time, but I'm open to your opinions and thoughts on the Sport model in general.
