  • 2010 Ford Taurus

    I heard they are re-doing the ford Taurus for 2010 and there is one pic floating around the internet with no camo on the car, We dont know if this is really what the car will look like. and they are also planning on bring the SHO back. People have been posting the pic all over the internet but Ford's legal department does not what the picture posted. I am not going to post the pic becouse I dont want to get Brian or Mifbody in trouble with Ford.

    Here is some info I found...

    But the big news is the possible return of the Taurus SHO

    By Brendan Moore

    03.25.2007


    You didn’t hear it here first; that is, if you’re a Ford fanatic, anyway. The chatter on the Ford fan-boy sites about the next-generation Taurus (due Fall 2009) has grown so loud and so sustained that we feel as if we should let you in on what all the talk is about.

    No detail on the redesign other than it is expected to have roughly the same interior dimensions with a bit of the front and back overhangs subtracted, and of course, look a lot better than the current Taurus. The real back-and-forth is about the rumored engines and drivetrains. The base engine will be the current very good V6 engine with some more horsepower (but under 300 HP), available with the six-speed automatic and optional AWD. The real news is that Ford is going to bring back the Taurus SHO (although a sizable faction at Ford wants it to be called SVT) and this Taurus will offer as standard a considerably upgraded AWD suspension and braking package, upscale interior with Bluetooth and a stereo with a very large hard drive for storing MP3 files, and the best part, the GTDI D35 TwinForce V8 pumping out a wonderful 415 HP.

    A full-size sedan that will go very, very, fast. Now that’s what you call a family hauler. The Taurus is a big comfortable car inside without being too big, so this would be a nice market niche for Ford.

    Bear in mind that none of this is confirmed at this point, but all the talk is starting to firm up on the details, so that’s always a positive sign in these situations. And auto manufacturers in trouble have a habit of leaking details out on future product in order to keep the faithful, well, faithful, while they’re putting up with the not-so-good current product. So it would not be unprecedented for these sorts of specifications to leak out this far ahead of time.

    We’ll let you know more when we know it. . . .

      Will it suck like the original SHOs?

      They're trying to go after the G8.

                    Looks like they need styling help from GM.

                        Thats your two cents but I like other cars not just GM. Sorry but there are more cars out there then just GM cars.

                          I see way too many Honda/Acura design elements in it.

                          By the time it gets here, it's in danger of being outdated when released.

                          And I'll believe a 400 hp sedan from Ford when I see it, especially one that's affordable...I can hear the Ford-Fan-Boys moaning already when the SHO comes in at $50K...they can't even make a 400 hp Mustang for less than the Shelby at $55K, and they expect that a new twin turbo platform to be affordable?

                          Good luck with that...
