    I miss the Taurus of old, the new ones just don't have that same magic for me. I remember when the Taurus was turning heads because back in the day it didn't look like anything else on the road. Such a shame that it was left by the wayside by Ford.

    I haven't looked into the new ones, but that old 1st and 2nd gen Taurus SHO were awesome. That Yamaha engine had so much potential, but even factory they were fun to drive. Its like you got a sports car and family car all in one. I hope the new ones are the same way.

    If the car has a V6 under the hood and at 365 hp, that is a powerful V6.

    Twin Turbo. Just like the Nissan GT-R (485 hp).

    What sucks is that I'm a Mustang guy, and the SHO's V6 has 50 more hp then the Mustang GT's V8 (can't afford no friggin Shelby!)
