It's more likely the car isn't moving it all. They digitally altered the background and wheels to simulate motion.

That was my thinking also, a clever chop I think, also, the car isn't leaning into the corner as much as it should be at that "speed"

It doesn't look like a Caddy as much as you think it does:

That's been the word. They're talking about using the AWD set up from the Mazdaspeed 6.

yup, i've heard this all over the place. Motor Trend was saying its probably one of the next SVT projects, saying it would be dead easy as the MazdaSpeed6 (270hp turbo-4, AWD, something like that) is basically the same car underneath.

Shouldn't this be under Other Fords? There are other Fusion threads, we've talked about SVT possibilities a bit there.

Mistakes are unacceptable on this forum. You'll just have to be banned.
