Thats a Mondeo XR5 replacement..will it come here ????..not unless its built in RHD...then if Ford can price competively like the Focus RS...The USA price is : 'The 2017 Ford Fusion Sport starts at a very un-German sports sedan price of $33,475, and that’s with all-wheel drive as a standard feature. from the posted article..' never get it here at that price !!!

Can't believe its been 14 years. 240kw was a shedload of power back then, more power than a standard LS1.

Frumpy styling, hope that's not a hint of a mid life update to the Mondeo.
However, would be nice if Ford AU offered this car and in a wagon, i would sign now.

Agreed, the new Mondeo looks much better in wagon form IMO.

That's pretty good for 2.7 litres. It's also approaching 200 Newton Metres per litre of engine capacity which is awesome for a mass produced car with a warranty!

Mondeo XR5 was nothing special, Ford accounted for that with the 177kw Ecoboost models.
