After a reconaissance lap with a Ford staffer at the wheel, we were allowed two laps in each vehicle. In the twenty five minutes we had allotted I only had time to try the Milan and two different Fusions. The available Milan and one of the Fusions were both equipped with the older 3.0L Duratec V-6 and all-wheel-drive. The second Fusion was a front wheel drive 2.3L automatic model with the new Sport Appearance package. The new package adds red inserts in the seats on the inside and a small lip spoiler on the trailing edge of the trunk lid. Out front the three bar grille gets a darker black-chrome finish and most importantly, each corner gets an 18" machined aluminum wheel. Continue after the jump for driving impressions and video.
