Ford Taurus Rage Concept Car 1998 Sema Auto Show Car on 2040-cars
Warren, Michigan, United States
The Ford Taurus Rage is a one of one concept vehicle designed by The Ford Motor Company for the 1999 SEMA Car Show in Las Vegas, Nevada. The car is completely custom and is a beautiful time piece of style and design from the late 1990's. The car features a custom one off body design that is composed of fiber glass body enhancements and steel ground effects. The wheels are a custom one off by MOMO. The interior was designed and crafted by LEAR Motorsports. The exhaust is a custom Bjorla exhaust that is cut into the center of the rear ground effects. This vehicle has the cams-welded and there has been a very meticulous engine examination done by an expert in this engine. The vehicle got excellent grades on that inspection. The engine runs great and looks like new. The tires are Eagle F1's and very low profile. There seems to be some misconceptions within car enthusiasts out there regarding this car and I can tell you first hand what restoration needs to take place. The front ground effect was cracked on a parking block by the previous owner. There is very minor fiberglass work needed to fix that. The paint started out as a candy red for the SEMA show. The car sat in a showroom for many years of its life and in the sunlight. There is some fading to the candy paint. That's it. No other issues other than minor cosmetics. This car looks great, runs great, sounds great, and is a one of one concept car designed by one of the Worlds oldest and largest automakers for a world known collector car show. The Rage has a great following amongst enthusiasts and a great following from people around the world. Here is your chance to own a concept car, a piece of Ford and automobile history.

Evo grabs Ford's Fiesta R5 rally car by the scruff
Wed, 04 Sep 2013Evo and host Henry Catchpole were thinking of excuses reasons to borrow the bonkers Ford Fiesta R5 rally car for a day or two, when it struck them: the car is street legal. With access to the R5, some of the world's most beautiful driving roads in the English Lake Country nearby, and a handy video crewing hanging around, the plan seemed to write itself.
Based on the resulting video, it was a good plan. Without spoiling the video for you - something we can't really do in text as the best part is listening to the rally car run - Catchpole finds the Fiesta to be sublimely quick and massively satisfying. Even taking the car for a spin on a pseudo rally stage, after leaving the English countryside, does nothing but add to his assessment of the beastly little Ford. Scroll on below to see for yourself, and enjoy the ride.
Top torque-to-weight ratios under $100k, $50k and $25k
Tue, 07 Oct 2014Horsepower may steal a lot of headlines, but the always-more-complex torque figure is often a critical one for both the workingman and the motoring playboy. The measure of rotational force represents the twist that can liquefy one's tires or haul one's horse trailer. Good stuff.
It follows then, that as with the horsepower-to-weight list that we assembled for you a few months ago, a list of cars that offer the most pound-feet with the fewest pounds to carry, is an interesting one to break down. Sure, there's a big difference in how the torque is applied from a turbocharged six-cylinder in a Swedish luxury sedan and a massive heavy-duty truck's turbo-diesel. But being the car/stat geeks that we are, we think it's kinda neat that those two vehicles rank near each other where torque and weight intersect.
As with the horsepower list, we've given you figures as pounds per every one pound-foot. Again broken down into broad price categories, we've got a mixed bag of 2014 and 2015 models here, too. Every effort has been made to select the most up-to-date prices and specs, and we've also to omitted some '14 cars that won't be re-upped after the ongoing yearly changeover.
Ford pranks unsuspecting blind dates with Mustang GT and stunt driver
Thu, Feb 12 2015There's 'speed dating,' that ludicrous get-to-know-you ritual devised by The Inquisition of Mating, and then there's 'dating at ludicrous speed,' which is a better description of what Ford has done in this latest video for the 2015 Mustang GT for your Valentine's Day enjoyment. The Blue Oval used a professional stunt driver to hook six guys into going on a little car trip, but the setup is the key – she pretends she's not that good at driving, until she's really good at it. You can check it out above. Kudos to the guy who goes from "You might want to shift again" to "That's what I'm talking about!" without any question. And the ninja.
