I'm glad they brought the Taurus back. It was a great car for a while and then their design went down hill. Looks better than the Accord now!

Nice look. Merauder style wheels look good on that car. I doubt though that we will see the front lip on the production model. Can you say "Parking lot barrier"??

Here's the official 2010 Taurus SHO. Personally I don't like this one as much as the 1st one posted. Here's the article to go with it.

When will they put a manual transmission in these!!!
Any true driving nut laughs at an automatic.
I don't care how good the tranny is, if you build a serious performance car, you need to offer a manual cog box.

Of course...that just my opinion.....

Default Agree with the 6spd option

I have owned several shos and prefer the manual over the auto. hands down. Of course I prefer a stick over an auto. in everything. More control of the vehicle, more fun to drive, just an all around better vehicle.
But the new SHO!! Very Fast!!
Twin turbos:thumb sup:
All wheel drive

You do realize that the turbos on this engine are very very small, and only spool to about 8psi?

Also, its not really "all wheel drive" - none of the modern fords are. The rear wheels only drive when it sees the fronts spinning faster. So in other words the car is front wheel drive until the wheel speed sensors see the front wheels slipping.

If you want real turbo with real all wheel drive options for you are mostly mitsu or subie.
