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! |

Detroit Three's lucrative pickup war intensifies as Ram makes big gains
Thu, Jan 3 2019DETROIT — The battle for profits from sales of large pickup trucks is intensifying among the Detroit Three automakers as sales of small cars in the United States shrivel. For decades Ford has had the single best-selling truck brand in its F-Series trucks. General Motors' Chevrolet brand was a solid No. 2, and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' Ram was a distant third. Now, that hierarchy may be in flux. Sales figures for December and the fourth quarter released on Thursday show Ram tied with GM's Chevy for the No. 2 spot, as sales of the redesigned Ram pickup surged, fueled in part by demand for an optional 12-inch (30.48 cm) dashboard screen. Chevy not long ago held second place to Ford by a wide margin. GM executives said on Thursday they are bullish on their new GMC and Chevy trucks for 2019.Related: How the Detroit Three's pickups compare on paper 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie review 2019 Chevy Silverado 2.7L four-cylinder review 2019 Ford F-150 2.7L EcoBoost review "There's no doubt this segment (pickup trucks) is one of the epicenters of the auto wars," said Sandor Piszar, director of marketing for Chevrolet at GM. "It's been that way forever, and we wouldn't have it any other way." On Wall Street, investors give electric car leader Tesla a higher valuation than any of the Detroit automakers. But in the nation's heartland, big pickups remain far more popular and profitable than any electric car — and most other consumer vehicles of any kind. Large pickups generate at least $17,000 a vehicle in pretax profit for GM, the company has indicated in disclosures to investors. By contrast, many Detroit Three sedans are so unprofitable, their manufacturers have decided not to build them anymore. 'Hotly contested' Sustaining sales and pricing in the large-pickup segment will be critical in a year when most forecasters expect overall U.S. car and light truck sales to fall. Ford's U.S. sales chief, Mark LaNeve, on Thursday called the F Series "the backbone of our franchise" during a conference call, and added the "segment will continue to be strong, but hotly contested" in 2019. Automakers are banking on pickup truck sales to stay strong even if U.S. interest rates continue to rise. Rising interest rates translate into higher monthly car payments and are expected to deter some buyers in 2019. GM has said 27 percent of Chevrolet and GMC trucks — which can haul trailers by day and substitute for a luxury sedan by night — sell for more than $55,000.
Rolling footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang hits YouTube [w/video]
Thu, 26 Dec 2013Just in time for the holidays: Ford took the 2015 Mustang to Route 66 to cook up rolling footage, and we've been given some of the leftovers ahead of the meal. There are no burnouts, no donuts, no revving, and thankfully, no music. It's just two minutes and 26 seconds of the new pony car running free in the desert.
So in case you needed more visualizing help, the video below will help you start imagining how you'll look in your 2014 Christmas present to yourself...
Xcar shows how to drive the Ford Model T
Wed, Jan 21 2015A couple of weeks ago Xcar posted a teaser review of the Ford Model T, a look at what the British duo would have been doing if they'd been doing their thing for 100 years. Now we have their complete, 12-minute take on the what might be, as they say, "arguably the most important car of the 20th century." Thankfully, instead of just a review, Xcar spends about half the time giving us a tour of history, from Ford's early days working for the Edison Illuminating Company to his racing days and founding of several car companies that either died or became other car companies after he left, like Cadillac. They also line up the pieces and the sales realities that led to Ford implementing – not creating, mind you – assembly-line production of the Tin Lizzie. And then they get into how crazy it is to drive, like how a driver needs two of the three pedals, the handbrake lever and a steering column stalk to get into high gear. Enjoy the video above on a 100-year-old car that is "unbelievably comfortable," "mildly terrifying" and ready to do just about anything.
