Spy shots like that don't tell us much. All we can tell is that they've sanded off the edges and rounded the shape. The current Fusion is less crisp and good-looking that the original, let's hope this one isn't.
 
Those wheels look pretty ugly.

Looks like the first implementation of the new face/grill of the Ford Evos concept. Goodbye Gillette - Hello Catfish!!
 
As for the rims, they are covered in the same swirly camo as some of the car itself.

Uh-oh...I'm getting a premonition of "Suddenly it's 1996!" As in, Ford Taurus. Gawd, I hope not!

It's not bad IMHO. I think Ford got to keep some design cues from Aston and Jaguar after the sales. This is the Evos:

I'm not digging the new Ford look like on Fiesta and Focus (and don't care for the Hyundai Sonata much either), but I give them credit for differentiating their vehicle styles. I also don't care much for the new interiors.

If it is anything like the Mondeo, it is going to be a nice looking car. I am loving that automakers are putting some style in each vehicle to differentiate from the pack. With reliaiblity/quality stats being so close now, this is one way to gain market share. Another is safety improvements.

Has anyone heard if Ford is dropping the V6 and going with the I4? I'm torn because I do like the new look of the Fusion, but I want the V6. If it comes down to I'll buy the 2012 over the 2013 just to get it.

More than likely the V6 will not be offered in 2013. All the spy reports say the 2.0 Ecoboost will be the performance motor.
