It actually has semi decent lines this go round. It's a little generic, but that beats the ever loving shit out of the jelly bean years. Now source out another high output engine from Yamaha and bring back the SHO and we'll be on the right track.

Decent. Way better than the old Taurus.

Look way better than the Taurus ever has.
|
Nice looking car.
|
The only thing that kinda bothers me is that they reduced the greenhouse for that "me too 300C look". Kinda liked the visibilty of the old Taurus.
The rumors are for the SHO to be an AWD, slushbox, turbo 3.5 version with 350+ horses. As much as I have disliked Fords design choices over the past couple of years. I'm usually suprised when I actually drive them (cars only). Decent steering and not to bad of a drive. Here's hoping they do well. The new Fusion is supposed to be really good...now if only they'd over a 6spd manual with the 3.5 in that car. Or any car with a 3.5 |

And for some odd reason Ford sticks us with their shit cars. The European selection of cars always seems to be better rated/reviewed and built to a higher standard. They also seem to have actual performance options rather than some cheapo body panels and badges. |

that's the case for all US based manufacturers. Americans don't want cars...they want CUV\SUV\Commanding View of the road with cars that do a bazillion things like connect to the internet, serve coffee and pull dinkleberries straight from your anus while the seamless automatic transmission and remotecontrol one pinky steerable suspension hides the fact that you are being forced to drive yourself to the mall. |
I like the styling and the electronic driver aids are neat although I can still see in my "blind spot" cheaper (it is called paying attention). It does look an awful lot like the Honda Accord to me and that kind of follow the leader never gets much respect from me.

It'll sell simply for being a 4dr Toyota available under 30K. That thing could be powered by a Hungarian hamster wheel and cause herpes but people would still buy it because "It's a Toyota and it will last a really long time...it will last WAY longer than the 4-6 years I'll actually own it" |

agreed, nothing inovating, but then why do "I" need anything innovating? i just need something that fits my needs.
we were on track for a new camaro SS, but w/ another on the way, we'll have to put those plans on the backburner. and I'm not sure i/we want another minivan. |

Looks like a Subaru Legacy and a Fusion went at it and created offspring...
It isn't too bad. :) |
The first pic looks great.......Nice rims.........But the pics RacerX posted are a big let-down for some reason.
I'm not too fond of steep rear windows, they tend to heat up the interior and cause reflections. |

Ford Taurus looks good, but the beltline is high like the Chryslers. |

I love the old taurus' I just hope this one will be as bulletproof.
They ain't fancy They ain't pretty They ain't million dollar luxury But by god they will get you from A to B every damn day of your life w/o a hickup. And they are less likely to get stolen :lol: |
This would be a good body style to bring the SHO back. They were pretty ballsy back in the day.
