Not me! Having compared spec for spec between my Mondeo Titanium and a Fusion Platinum, there are only two things in the Platinum that I would want in my Mondeo Titanium: the better leather seats, and air conditioned front seats (over here, we only get heated seats, but not air conditioned seats, which is really quite strange considering it can get quite hot here).
The Fusion Platinum doesn't even get three position memory front seats (only two position memory) or a panoramic glass roof, although I believe inflatable rear seatbelts are available as an option. The bare metal finish underneath the parcel shelf in the boot (trunk) looks decidedly low-rent.
I suppose in North America, Ford doesn't want to position itself as being too premium in case it takes sales away from Lincoln.
