Going to look at my next car tomorrow.....
a 1995 Ford Taurus SHO. i've always liked how they looked, and the sleeper potential of them is a bonus. Plus, it's a Taurus, so my parents will never know it's the high performance model. it has 97K miles on it, and costs only $2999. my budget is $3000.....perfect! i'll let everyone know how it goes.

Correct me if Im wrong, but in 95, wasent a 5speed available?
|
I had a sable..... master cylinder failed on me while driving :shock:
Did you know.... their is a message board for those cars? taurus car club of america or something! |
SHO = win....you'd probably beat me in a race :(
|
Go buy a GN. You could tell your parents its just a buick. And besides, its boxy like a volvo so must be safe. :lol:

the SHO's were available with 5-speeds. the manual cars got a 3.0L V6, while the autos got a 3.2L V6. hmmmm.....higher displacement. |
Not for 3g's he aint getting no GN!!

heh i just crashed my taurus on monday, goin to see if its totaled today :cry:

My other car would be an SHO. By far the most annoying and unreliable car ever built but what a great motor. If you ever need any help with performance parts (tuning even) I can help. My friend has had 3 since high school. I also know (through him) 3 other friends that own them. I've also rebuild a 5 speed transmission and pretty much done a tone of work on em... because they always need it :lol: .
A friend got his 89 SHO to do a 14.6 with only a chopped up trash receptical homebuilt cold air intake. That was at Atco, and then on his best 60' he broke a half-shaft... so be nice with the car and beat the piss out of the motor 8) |

oh well... the car was sold already.
the next thing i'm looking at is a 1993 Stealth R/T. I don't know if it's turbo, but it looks to be in good condition. hopefully i can check it out sometime this weekend. |
Wait a minute... you cant have an f-body, but you'll look at a Stealth? :?
|

The AWD TT Stealths and 3000GT's are doooooooooooogs. They easily tip over 2 tons, and for just abotu 300hp...thats a lot of mass to move.

they're about 3800 lbs.
they're more of a grand touring car than an actual sports car. their interiors are more comfortable than most Japanese sports cars. however, I'm sure some weight reduction would be in order if i got one :twisted: |
