Just saw that new 2013 Ford Fusion that will come with a 2.0 turbo 4 and a RWD biased AWD system. Exterior design is amazing and so many features for the price.

keep in mind that now the 3er fills the spot in bmw's line up as the old 5er in the new world order. Its grown a full class size from the e46 to the F30, basically mirroring the dimensions of the e39, so you have to understand that this is no longer their entry car in the market. If you want an entry car to compare to a fusion, you have to look at the 1er now. And while price may be competitive for the ford, im sure you wont mistake the driving experience between them....
That may be true, but the price of a well optioned 335i rose from about 45k in 2007 to what it is now.
