1997 Ford Taurus SHO. This vehicle is a great runner and has low miles for it's age. It has a lot of power with the small V-8 and is fun to drive. It has been regularly maintained by Ford dealership mechanics. Body has no dents. The ground effects are in rough shape, the rear half on both sides is missing. There is rust above the rear wheel wells as well as along the bottom where the ground effects were. The vehicle is red and shows signs of paint fade. Please remember this vehicle is 16 years old and all of the cosmetic issues are consistent with a car of that age. The vehicle runs very smoothly and quiet. It probably needs the AC to be recharged. All of the power options work as they should; the windows, sunroof, locks, steering, brakes, keyless entry, etc. It has had a recent oil change and the battery is new within the last year. The interior is in very good condition. There are some small tears in the rear seats but they are small and not bad, also a tear in the driver's side seat on the side near the door. The interior is also very clean. The radio is an AM/FM cassette player and it works as it should. There is a 6 CD changer in the trunk directly wired to the stereo that works as it should. The tires are also fairly new with a lot of tread life left. Please look at the pictures to see exact conditions as of today. It is a very reliable car and is actually a fun car to drive. If you have any questions at all, feel free to contact me through e-mail. If you are truly interested we can set up a test drive. This car is being sold as-is. The blue book value on a car in this condition at the SHO trim level is around $2600. My reserve is set WELL BELOW that price.

Ford C-Max sales hold steady despite fuel economy fracas
Mon, 09 Sep 2013Despite the ballyhoo that accompanied Ford's lowering of the C-Max fuel economy figures, the Blue Oval is still seeing strong demand for the five-seat MPV, as Automotive News reports. Speaking to marketing boss Jim Farley, AN says that the controversy surrounding the C-Max's fuel economy figures won't force Ford to change its marketing strategy.
Ford lowered the fuel economy rating of the C-Max after public outcry and legal action by customers that were unable to reach the 47 miles per gallon promised by the window sticker. The new ratings were dropped about a month ago to 45 mpg on the freeway and 40 mpg in the city. Ford offered rebates for current C-Max owners, with $550 going to those that bought their car and $325 to lessees. The issue, says Ford, stemmed from testing standards that allowed the automaker to base the C-Max's fuel economy on the Fusion Hybrid, because they use identical powertrains. The C-Max's less aerodynamic shape wasn't taken into account, though.
Whether Ford's PR team handled the crises perfectly or people just aren't that bothered by a four-mpg drop in combined ratings, demand remains strong for the C-Max among consumers. Ford moved 3,000 units in August, which was a 12-percent jump over July sales. Meanwhile, consumer demand through third-party shopping websites remains strong as well, according to Autometrics, a data analysis company that spoke with Automotive News. While the long-term effects of the adjustments remain unknown, the C-Max appears to have fared well in the near term.
Court puts kibosh on apartheid lawsuit against Ford, Daimler
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Ford and Daimler have scored a major victory in a long-running lawsuit filed in US federal court by unnamed South African nationals. The suit alleges that both manufacturers and their subsidiaries sold their vehicles to the South African military, despite knowing that they'd be involved in violently putting down anti-apartheid protesters.
According to Reuters, South African plaintiffs filed the case under the 223-year-old Alien Torts Statute, a law which allows foreign nationals to file charges in US courts for perceived breaches of what was originally international law, but now more closely relates to violations of human rights.
And while the case - which also involves computer manufacturer IBM - has been tied up in federal courts for years, a recent case from the Supreme Court struck down a similar suit against Royal Dutch Petroleum (Shell), arguing that the ATS doesn't apply to corporations or to conduct if it occurred outside the US. In short, the law applies to individuals, but not corporations like Ford or Daimler. A US appeals court ruled that the conditions apply in this case, potentially drawing this long-running saga to a close, as the defendants will now be allowed to request that the case be dismissed in district court.
