NO RESERVE!!!! NO
RESERVE!!! High Bidder Wins!! 1993 Super High Output (SHO) Taurus 5 Speed Manuel 220 HP Over 140mph top speed ! Yamaha High Performance Motor Low Miles Runs and Drives Perfect!! Here is what MotorTrend
magazine said after a two year review of this year model Taurus SHO: “1993 Ford Taurus SHO By B.J. Killeen | From the March 1995 issue of Motor
Trend Judging by the write-in comments on the
survey (and there were plenty), what everyone liked best about the SHO was,
obviously, performance. It was the primary purchase influence at 92.8 percent,
followed in order by handling, looks/style, and safety features. The output
from the Yamaha engine is more than half again as much as from the 3.8-liter
six-cylinder in the regular Taurus: 220 horsepower at 6200 rpm and 215
pound-feet of torque at 4800. A 7.5-second 0-60 time and a 15.4-second/88.9-mph
quarter-mile run backed up its performance claims-so much so that many owners
rambled on about how much better they liked the SHO over more-expensive
hardware like BMWs, Mercedeses, and other European sport sedans. "I had a BMW
before this car," wrote one happy owner. "I never thought I'd ever
like to drive something as much as that BMW. The SHO is every bit as nice. I
like a fast car and a family car; the SHO is it!"
The Yamaha-built 3.2 liter DOHC V-6
produces 220 horsepower and 215 pound-feet of torque. Engineering
wizardry-including dual intake runners, one for low engine speeds and one for
high-helps deliver the SHO's quick 7.5-second 0-60 time and nice torque band I moved to Texas in 2008
and decided to get my car dealer license because I love to buy and sell cars
and motorcycles. It has always been more
of a hobby than a business (thank god, or I would starve) I
found this San Antonio and purchased it from an insurance company. It had
damage to the right front Fender and grill. I replaced the front bumper, grill
and right front fender. When I bought
this car I had every intention to keep it.
I remembered test driving the SHO Taurus back in the early 90”s and I was
very impressed. If you read the reviews you will see that most of the owners
have previously owned BMW and Mercedes and they like this car as much or
better. If you want to see a great
review of this car you can watch this clip on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNH1Gv4ew-w
There was never any
frame damage or airbags deployed. I have
pictures of the car before the repairs were made as well. I have driven the car since the repairs were
made and even took it up to high speeds for a bit to make sure it had no
issues. (at least that was my excuse)
This car is awesome to drive! This car still has a
salvage title but I will give you a “certificate of rebuild”. If you take the title and certificate of
rebuild to the DMV they will issue you a new title that will be a standard
title. Some states will put a note in
the remark section that says “rebuilt” or “prior salvage” but the new title
will allow you to get full coverage insurance and finance the vehicle if
desired. You will be very happy
with this car. It is solid, drives
perfect and would rate in “excellent” shape. I would drive this car across the country
without any worries. Issues: The mirror glass is missing on the passenger
side door and the headliner is a little worn where it meets the rear window at
the top. It still looks good but not
perfect. You will
save a bundle of money on this car! This car will sell to the high bidder
regardless if that is $500 or $10,000. I really hope to get what this car is worth but I will trust
the auction to bring whatever the market will pay. Whoever wins this bid will be very happy! I will be glad to help with shipping and I know a hand full
of guys that would gladly drive this to anywhere in the country to deliver it. I will be happy to help you arrange to get
the car to your home as long as it has been paid for before it leaves my
driveway. I would suggest that you fly
into San Antonio or Austin and let me pick you up at the airport. You would enjoy the drive home and give you a
chance to get to know your new car. The winning bidder will need to pay a $500 deposit within 24
hours and the balance within 5 days. You
can leave the car here as long as you wish once it is paid for. This is a true NO RESERVE! High Bidder Wins! |

Ford fights back against patent trolls
Fri, Feb 13 2015Some people are just awful. Some organizations are just as awful. And when those people join those organizations, we get stories like this one, where Ford has spent the past several years combatting so-called patent trolls. According to Automotive News, these malicious organizations have filed over a dozen lawsuits against the company since 2012. They work by purchasing patents, only to later accuse companies of misusing intellectual property, despite the fact that the so-called patent assertion companies never actually, you know, do anything with said intellectual property. AN reports that both Hyundai and Toyota have been victimized by these companies, with the former forced to pay $11.5 million to a company called Clear With Computers. Toyota, meanwhile, settled with Paice LLC, over its hybrid tech. The world's largest automaker agreed to pay $5 million, on top of $98 for every hybrid it sold (if the terms of the deal included each of the roughly 1.5 million hybrids Toyota sold since 2000, the company would have owed $147 million). Including the previous couple of examples, AN reports 107 suits were filed against automakers last year alone. But Ford is taking action to prevent further troubles... kind of. The company has signed on with a firm called RPX, in what sounds strangely like a protection racket. Automakers like Ford pay RPX around $1.5 million each year for access to its catalog of patents, which it spent nearly $1 billion building. "We take the protection and licensing of patented innovations very seriously," Ford told AN via email. "And as many smart businesses are doing, we are taking proactive steps to protect against those seeking patent infringement litigation." What are your thoughts on this? Should this patent business be better managed? Is it reasonable that companies purchase patents only to file suit against the companies that build actual products? Have your say in Comments.
GM's Reuss predicts 2016 Chevy Camaro will outperform Ford Mustang in every way
Tue, Apr 7 2015We aren't going to be seeing the next-generation Chevrolet Camaro until next month. But even though we know when we're going to see the new muscle car, it's totally unclear whether Chevy will dole out technical details. That means we can't answer the latest version of the age-old question: Camaro or Ford Mustang? Not surprisingly, General Motors North America President Mark Reuss has already stated his position, saying he was "very confident" that the sixth-generation Camaro will be faster, more agile and more efficient than the Ford. Reuss made his comments after saying he drove the new Camaro back-to-back with the Mustang the week prior. Reuss' statement came in a conversation with Fox News about the 2016 Camaro where he elaborated on the car's weight shedding and how it fit into GM's strategy on other new models. "There are some really cool things in the Camaro, that are quite different than the Malibu, [and] CT6," Reuss told Fox. As we reported previously, the Camaro will shed some 200 pounds by switching to aluminum and other lightweight composites for some of its components. With May 16 just over a month away, here's hoping Reuss decides to loose some other details on the next Camaro ahead of its debut. Related Video:
Ford doubling 1.0L EcoBoost engine production
Fri, 06 Sep 2013Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine hasn't been around that long, but it sounds like the engine is getting to be fairly popular in the automaker's global car lineup. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford has add a second shift that will allow its German engine plant to double daily output from 500 engines to 1,000.
The increased capacity is part of a plan to sell more than 300,000 vehicles a year with this engine in Europe by 2015. Europe is currently the only market where the smallest of the EcoBoost engines is offered (including in the Focus pictured above), but US-spec Fiesta models will be getting this mill for 2014.
Three-cylinder engines are expected to continue to grow in popularity in coming years with the report indicating that global production of these engines will double by 2018 to 9.8 million units. General Motors, BMW and Mitsubishi are all expected to introduce three-cylinder engines in the near term, as well.
