I'm sorry but that grill sticker really needs some work.

I don't know why NASCAR bothers to keep up the charade that their cars have anything in common with their passenger vehicle counterparts, besides 4 tires and a steering wheel.

I guess on the bright side. The NASCAR Fusion looks more like its counterpart, than the Dodge Charger.

You have it seen in person how good it really looks.

So, Carl Edwards (my favorite driver) will be driving one of those pretty soon ... Can't wait.

It's marketing, plain and simple. I know Chebbie sold quite a few black Monte's a few years ago thanks to Dale Sr.

Even if I could get a RWD, V8 Fusion at my local dealer, it probably wouldn't have a carburetor!

What change? it looks like a Taurus with different stickers. I'd be a lot more interested in Nascar if they dumped the common template and made the cars look like the cars that they're pretending to be.

Every car in NASCAR has the same body type/shape just with different decals and stickers to differentiate from the other cars. It was done because so much nagging was brought up about different body styles having a supposed advantage over the other. So NASCAR just said OK, we'll just make all of the bodys the same. So it's going to look the same.
