I got my new car!
 
It's a 2007 Ford Fusion with the V6 engine and just about every option. It also came with 20 inch aftermarket rims and was lowered (both done by the dealer). I love the car, but I hate being in debt.

By the time I finished at the dealership it was dark and rainy out side, so I didn't get a chance to take any pictures of my car. I will take and post pictures as soon as the weather cooperates.

Congrats on the new car :).

Cherish that new car smell ;).

Congrats, There was a car just like that here in town also lowered and had 19's on it from the dealer.

What colour is it?

Thanks.

It's a silverish-gray color with dark gray and tan (two-tone) interior. The rims have a chrome finish. And the rear windows are tinted.

Congrats, dude! It can't still be raining...

Scorps 12-28-2006 01:27 AM

The clouds cleared up today. But I've been getting home from work kind of late this week and I don't want to take my pictures in the dark. I will take my pictures this weekend; weather permitting. :thumbsup:

Scorps 12-28-2006 08:34 PM

Sometimes pics in the rain can turn out cool looking.

Telluride 12-30-2006 06:12 PM

Here are the pictures of my car. I like to name things, so I named him Henry since he's a Ford and I've always admired Henry Ford.

not bad for a Ford, but im not liking those rims, should have got them to put 5 spoke 20's on it :D

Brewmaniac 12-31-2006 09:08 AM

Nice looking car! Wouldn't want to have to keep that interior clean!

Those rims have 20 spokes each. That's four times as good! Besides; the rims were already on the car when I saw it on the lot. I didn't have much choice. :)

ya i know...I knew someone that sweet talked the saleman into getting different rims on a new car....I just it pays to be a young hot woman:lol: I taking her when I go to get a new car ;)

desal75 12-31-2006 06:27 PM

Pain, when your friend sweet talked the salesman she didn't really get them for free. He most likely just cut a little bit into the profit he was holding on the car.

I'm sure there are other reasons it pays to be young and hot though.

we don't know that type of Ford in europe, I don't like the back of the car, but the front is pretty nice!
You should drop the car a bit more to give the wheels the full bling they deserve

newtx 01-05-2007 06:53 PM

Congrats on Henry. Didn't know a dealer would lower a car for a customer. Nice ride.

JumpinJesus 01-05-2007 08:17 PM

I've never been a fan of Ford's styling, but I think they finally got it together with the Fusion. When I read that there were 20" rims on it, my initial thinking was not positive, but again, I have to admit that they work really well with your car. I just hope it doesn't snow there. :)

Congratulations on the car. I love the feeling of having a new one. Do you find yourself looking at it every chance you get?

powerclown 01-05-2007 09:23 PM

Congrats on the car...not a big Ford fan, but this is one of the nicer looking Ford sedans in a long time. Much nicer than the old Taurus, and 500. I like the wheels, they remind me of BMW M3 wheels...look nice on the car. AWD?

I might lower it a bit more, but I need to think about it. I would hate to pay to have it lowered and then not like the results.

Thanks. The dealer didn't lower it at my request. There were/are a number of new vehicles on the lot that have been customized (cars that have been lowered and had rims put on them, or trucks that have been lifted and have oversized rims and tires). It was already tricked out when I bought it.

No snow here. I live in a sunny part of sunny California. And yes, I look at my car a lot. Not just because it's new, but because I honestly think it's a nice looking car. :thumbsup:

Thanks. And this one is a front-wheel drive, not AWD.

How's insurance on that?

Not bad, actually. A lot less than I thought it would be.

Redjake 02-08-2007 06:36 PM

that thing looks comfortable!

Tech 02-09-2007 09:43 AM

i, for one, kinda like the rims. they keep in style with the blockish lines of the body, especially the front end (grille, headlights)

bobby 02-09-2007 05:56 PM

The grill looks like Gort..."The Day the Earth Stood Still"

I'm not loving the wheels, but to each their own. Looks like a sensible comfy sedan though. Congrats!
