The median 2012 Ford Fusion sits at $5,748 in the Canadian market. Most of what you'll find lands between $4,375 and $7,984, so that spread is your reality check. Pay near the low end and you're doing well. Cross past $8,000 and you're paying above what the typical car goes for.
The median odometer reads about 172,460 km, which is what you'd expect for a car this age. Mileage does move the price, but not by much. Every extra 10,000 km on the clock knocks roughly $147 off. Run the math and even a car with 60,000 more kilometres than the median only trims about $880 off the price. Condition and trim matter more here than a slightly higher reading.
How the trims stack up
The SEL carries a median of $5,498, with a typical band of $4,125 to $6,866. The SE comes in cheaper at $4,750, but its range runs wide, from $2,500 all the way to $6,242. That bottom end on the SE is where the value lives if you're willing to sort through condition. The wide spread means SE prices are all over the place, so knowing what a fair number looks like pays off.
If you want the more equipped car without overpaying, the SEL's tighter range makes it easier to judge. Around $5,500 is the going rate, and anything under $5,000 for a clean one is a genuine find.
