More elegant interior by savetheland

I want more elegant interior in Milan. Fusion is blue collar car so I do not have issue with Fusion. But Milan was supposed to be for young, urban, active blah-blah customers. So why it still has utilitarian Best Western inspired interior? Why GM can diffirentiate interiors for different brands andcreate elegant yet different interiors for Aura and Malibu and Ford cannot do it even for Milan?

Milan with the Wales Mahogany looks good. also Milan has cloth on the door panels verse the plastic on the Fusion. Milan also has reading lights for rear seat passengers.

1. Adjustable center counsel that slides north and south.
2. Hydraulic hood openers....I don't know what they call them.
3. The new 3.5 duratech and six speed tranny.....around 250 horsepower.
4. Make the cabin even more quiet and refined by applying the same sound improvement ideas, that have been used on the 2008 Taurus, Focus, MKX, Edge, ect.
5. Improve the shape and ergonomics of the steering wheel similar to what GM is doing on the aura, soltice, and sky. Toyota has a similar shaped steering wheel on the Camry SE, If my memory serves me?

Ok, Ford. This is what I want.
 
A 5 star frontal crash rating. 4 stars = I'm looking elsewhere. No 5 stars, no customer here.

Well, the similar Mazda6 has 5 stars. In evaluating safety, I would consider the IIHS ratings also:

You do realize the difference between 4 stars and 5 stars can be just 1%? 10% chance of serious injury = 5 stars. 11% = 4 stars. If you're that concerned with safety then buy a hummer.

So, let me guess.. the Honda Accord and the Toyota Camry are also off your list to then? The Fusion is even with the Camry and actually scores better than the Accord in rear impact..
