Here's the C&D first drive too.

Odds of it beating the new Sonata in a comparo?

Yes, but it looks exactly like the Cadillac CTS.

 

[cjgallen]

It does look like a Caddy.

That's why Koenigsegg called it the Ford CTS when its real name is the Ford Fusion.

they just jipped off the caddy cts.... i wonder if there going to come out with a cts-v too.... maybe using the gt motor?

 

[Kalbi]

the only thing that can save Ford is if all of a sudden Unions disappeared.

I think it might be an awesome car. I like the looks of the CTS and I like the engine and chassis from the mazda 6. It might be a pretty decent car

They are working on a 3.5L V6 that should produce 260hp+ and go into production in a few months in Lima, OH. Rumor is it will go into an AWD version of this car under the ST or SVT moniker.

GM could retaliate with a
Saturn Stallion?

 

[yhelothar]

hmmm ford CTS or honda accord... tough call... NOT

 

[MasterAndCommander]

Not bad, but I'd rather get the Mazda6..if I was in the market for such a car.

 

[JulesMaximus]

It's a Fordillac!!!

Obviously you'd go for the Mazda 6 because it comes with the option for a stick.

i'd take the 6 over this, too.

I like how the Edmunds review says Ford gets the 3.0l from Mazda when the Mazda 3.0l is a Ford duratec.

But it's a Mazda tuned Ford engine!

 

[RagingBITCH]

It's based off the Ford 427 design which was before the current CTS' time.

I would have loved to have driven that before I got my Accord - it looks slick.
