Ford Taurus Rage Concept From 1999 Sema Car Show on 2040-cars
Warren, Michigan, United States
|
The Ford Taurus Rage is a concept vehicle designed by Ford for the 1999 SEMA auto show held annually in Las Vegas. The Rage is a well documented prototype and a time piece of style from the late 90s. The Rage is one of one and very rare, designed by Ford Motor Company. The vehicle was owned by Ford originally and this is verifiable via car fax. The ground effects are all steel and the remaining body enhancements are fiberglass. This is not a kit on this car. This is very highly professionally done work by the Automaker. The seats are custom by Lear Motorsports. The wheels are an original only done for this car by Italian wheel maker MOMO. The cams have been welded by the number one expert amongst enthusiasts in Chicago, Illinois. The engine has been looked at extensively and documented to be in great condition. The 3.4L SHO motor was a joint effort between American (Ford) and Japanese (Yamaha) designers. The engine runs really great. The exhaust is Borla and it sounds good. Cars today don't sound like this. The car isn't super fast. Its around 260hp. Its very stylish, sounds great, and turns heads whenever its on the road. People ask a lot of questions and are very intrigued. Its a must see. There is minor restoration to be done on this vehicle. It runs great, drives great, and looks amazing. The RAGE has gotten a lot of unfair talk about it on message boards by people who have only seen pictures and have no clue what they are talking about. There are a lot of misconceptions out there by people. Since I have owned the Rage I have been very proactive in doing my best to preserve this awesome piece. I stand behind this vehicle 100%. It needs minor restoration to the body only. Fords of this era have the reputation they have, I can't change that but the experts who have been through this car and written about it have found that this vehicle was given extra special attention in manufacturing to bring the RAGE design to life. You can see in the picture the front ground effect was cracked by the previous owner. That's the worst of what needs to be fixed. Other than that its very minor restoration needed for the Rage to look as it did in the Vegas pictures. |

Forza Horizon 3 adds Ford Police Interceptor, Jeep CJ5
Tue, Oct 4 2016We're only a few weeks past the debut of Forza Horizon 3, and already the folks at Turn 10 are introducing the first of six car packs for the open-world driving game. Focused heavily on performance, there are still a few, um, oddballs, including one we're sure Forza's livery customizers will have a blast with. The Smoking Tire Car Pack brings seven new vehicles to FH3, with the Aston Martin Vulcan, Pagani Huayra BC, GTA Spano, Lotus 340R, and BMW M2 repping traditional performance vehicles. As per usual, FH3 renders each car beautifully and promises a solid approximation of real-world performance – even if you do ditch the roads and opt to rampage through the Australian countryside. While performance is good, the Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor and the Jeep CJ5 Renegade bring an off-beat vibe to this particular pack. We aren't certain, but this might be the first time the Police Interceptor appears in a blockbuster driving game. While we expect plenty of police car liveries for the Crown Vic, Forza's rabid community of tuners and customizers are sure to do much more with it. As for the CJ5, is there a better vehicle for tooling about Australia? Yeah, we didn't think so. The Smoking Tire Car Pack is available for free as part of the Forza Horizon 3 Ultimate Edition or Car Pass program. Commitment-phobes can also download this single vehicle pack for $7.

Ford is building this sweet back-to-basics SUV in Brazil
Mon, 02 Jun 2014We're use to forbidden fruit teasing us in Europe. Hatchbacks and diesels from Renault, Citroën, Peugeot, Skoda, SEAT and Alfa Romeo have been a regular torment that we've grown accustomed to over the years. This vehicle, though, is one piece of forbidden fruit we aren't entirely sure we can get over. We need it.
It's called the Ford Troller T4, and if you accidentally read that as either "reborn Ford Bronco" or "Americanized Land Rover Defender," we wouldn't be rushing to correct you. It's a basic, badass SUV, and is the first new vehicle to come from Troller since Ford gobbled it up in 2007. For those with longer memories, you'll recognize this vehicle from the concept that preceded it, the Ford T-R Concept. The production model remains remarkably true to the T-R, as well as past Trollers, but it's a slightly more modern look overall, with LED taillights, contrasting colors
You'll have to bear with us on the details, as we've been forced to rely on the notoriously literal Google Translate to convert the original Portuguese into English, which means some of the details were lost along the way.
Roush getting back into sport compact business with Focus ST mods [w/video]
Wed, 29 May 2013Roush Performance offers a whole raft of parts for folks looking to tune their Ford Mustang and F-150 models, and now Focus owners can start getting in on the hotted-up action, too.

Down the road, Roush will also offer styling upgrades for the Focus as well as performance tuning upgrades such as engine controller, suspension, wheels and tires. Scroll down for a quick video of what the Focus ST exhaust sounds like, as well as a Roush press release.
