Our reviews give you two perspectives. Jakub takes the perspective of the car enthusiast, while Yuri represents the interests of the general consumer. You won't find details about engine compression ratios here, instead you'll have real world opinions on what it's like to drive and own cars.

I own this car. These guys are making this car seem lame. I love this car. 5.2 sec 0-60 and can be sub 5 sec with a few mods and a tune. High 12's in the 1/4 mile with mods & a tune. Not bad for a "Dad Car". This car is a great sleeper car. Has beaten lots of "muscle" cars at the track.

The lane keep assist BUTTON that’s on the turn signal stalk was literally visible when you were complaining that it didn’t exist 😂

I would take this over the Subaru. It makes me sad that this will be out of production when I am looking for my next car. I'm the odd ball American who hates cross overs and SUV's.

If your new car doesn’t have any fake carbon fiber, is it really a new car?

Ford over the Subaru- anything to get away from the dreaded CVT

[LPPR]

I have a dadmobile GrandPrix GTP. but I’m 21. And been balding since 17. Perfect.

[jus]

there will be a 2019 model fusion. but they're going to start phasing it out after 2019. but I still think it's dumb that they're getting rid of sedans.

Got this car as a rental for a day and was very impressed. Very gracefully designed and is a complete sleeper. Did not expect the level of performance, handling and luxury that this car delivered. If I wasn't such a Japanese car fanboy, I would definitely consider this car as a daily driver.

As a previous owner of Ford Fusion Titanium, I can say that Fusion is a great solid car but Ford needs to update it and they didn't. RIP Fusion.

[Goregch]

At first I used to watched because I was interested in the car they reviewed. Now I watch because I'm interested in them and their point of view. Well done lads

[lanierk]

I’d take the Ford Fusion Sport any day over the Legacy😁

[Tbcp]

5 star review again! I actually like this car, technically I'm a dad so that may be the reason. Ford should have considered a SHO version of this car with 6 speed manual minus the luxury stuff. IMHO

[chrisbrook]

I agree with Jakub, I would take the Fusion too. Also, you can thank BlackBerry for the fact that SYNC 3 is more user-friendly than the previous generations of SYNC.

Which one would I take?
Well, I took one. I bought a 2017 Ford Fusion Sport in March. It listed at $35, 560 USD with a $7, 000 rebate, and $3, 000 in dealer discounts so I got it for $25, 560 plus tax and tags. Mine doesnt have the cooling seats, heated steering wheel, lane assist or the same infotainment system with NAV, but it's got everything else. It's really quick for a 4 door family car, and good luck getting a Legacy for the same price.
It might not be that much faster ( about a half second in the quarter mile) than a Honda Accord Touring, but it's so much torquier, so if it doesn't downshift, it still pulls really well and effortlessly. I think it's one of the best values out there. They're practically giving them away.

These things are so underrated; I love them. It just sucks that the U.S. is no longer going to have sedans anymore 😔

[pappyodanial]

That much horsepower and you didn't send it?

[charleschua]

Why do you guys only have 200k subs? THAT’S RIDICULOUS. Hands down the most underrated automotive youtuber out there.

[Sladdery]

I'm glad you all pointed out the lag. I just recently bought one of these with 24k miles and after 8k miles of driving the lag is def noticeable, especially in the low end because of the small displacement of the V6

[Lightspeed-eonw]

The first rule of Cliché Corner is don’t tell anyone where it is. I remember the first time I ever saw you guys was the Kajiji how to sell your car stuff, I’m gonna want to see the “Steering you Right” synchronized finger pointing next time I see you!

Just bought a T shirt.... not because I need another T-shirt... but because you guys are awesome.
