2013 Ford Fusion SEMA Show Cars Previewed
As the 2012 SEMA Show nears, automakers are now releasing what we can expect at this year’s aftermarket expo in Las Vegas, Nevada. This year, Ford will be showing off its new Fusion with four customized vehicles built by tuners all across America.
Pictured above is a custom Ford Fusion from Tjin Edition, seeking the perfect blend between performance and luxury. The exterior features a custom DuPont Beige paint job that’s been further accented by a 3dCarbon lip kit. On the inside, Katzkin contributes with a redone interior while Scosche Audio handles the stereo. As for performance, the team at Tjin Edition sought out Unique Fabrication and Vibrant for a custom turbo kit while Magnaflow gave the Fusion a sporty style with a side-exit exhaust system. Finishing off the Tjin Edition Fusion are custom 21-inch iForged Concave wheels wrapped with Falken tires, a Baer big brake upgrade and suspension from Pedders.
3dCarbon will also present its own Fusion at SEMA that features a European influence. On the exterior will be a 3dCarbon body kit that gives the Fusion an all-new silhouette with elegance. A set of HRE wheels will adorn all four corners, making this Fusion an elegant build.
Perhaps the most radical of the four is the Fusion from Ice Nine Group, inspired by the V8 Supercars Series, which will finally be making its debut in America next year. Road-race styling and performance is the focus of the build, which is clearly sponsored by Monster Energy Drink given the car’s green exterior and graphics package.
Last but not least, is the MRT Performance Fusion which builds on the already sporty style of the sedan. Not only is the black-and-blue paint scheme aimed at capturing your attention, the matching blue Forgestar wheels give a hint as to what MRT has in store. The tuner has equipped the Fusion with a custom Eco-Flow exhaust while balancing style, chassis, and powertrain modifications. The result is a fun and stylish street car, geared to making the Fusion a top choice for sedan customers.
