I think the hip-hop crowd will take to the Ford Fusion in a big way. Its general proportions strongly resemble previous generation Mercedes and Acura RL sedans and the Lincoln LS.
These cars are very attractive in dark colors and lend themselves to big chrome wheels and blacked-out windows, custom design elements that are very popular with that group.

from leftlanenews.com:
... Ford says is designed to target African-American consumers ...
Interesting how ford openly says it's targeting the black community directly.

About 2 years ago, GM had a big advertisment push for the Spanish-speaking Mexicans in California.
It was right up there with "Yo, Quero Taco Bell", but along the lines of Chevy (hard "ch"...as in "charp chevy").
I wonder if it was effective?

Man.....that looks like shit. The previous ones that were shown customized earlier today look waaaaaaay fuckin' better. Why the hell does it have 20's in the back? The damn thing is front wheel drive...what you wanna give it that RWD look? LMFAO the camber is even altered; did you put anything in (most likely 4 cylinder) it to make it faster? Body Kit? What some glue on skirts? Probably charging a fortune for it. IMO the thing is way to over done, pinstripes look crappy and the rims don't even look like they are supposed to be there.
Be eeaasy.....Be clear and Holla at ya boy, you scuffed your driving shoes on this one.

Wow - as someone already pointed out, that is completely ridiculous for a FWD Family Sedan.
But stranger things have succeeded ;)
