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!

Ken Block walks you through his new 'Hoonigan Racing' HQ

Tue, 24 Jun 2014

Ken Block seems like one hell of a nice guy. I ran into him at CES this past January, and he dropped the video games he was playing to chat with me for a while. His crew also recently gave our Steve Ewing a tour of the offices you're about to see on this video. Good guy to know.
As it turns out, they're some fairly cool new digs. Dubbed 'Hoonigan Racing Division HQ,' the office is open to Ford Focus ST and Fiesta ST owners who attend the driving program offered out at Miller Motorsports Park. The very same program that Ewing reported on just recently.
Or, if you've no plans to buy an ST or travel to Utah any time soon, you can let Block show you around himself in this MTV Cribs-style video. With interior decorating that relies heavily on shipping containers and luxurious amenities like a ping pong table, 10 refrigerators and a bear(?), there's no lack of eye-candy in the driverly HQ. (Judging by Block's outfit, you'll probably not go thirsty if you're a Monster drinker, either.) Take the tour along with the Gymkhana master, below.

Watch Tanner Foust hustle the Fiesta ST 'round the 'Ring

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

The last time we saw Tanner Foust at the Nürburgring he was sloshing an SVT Raptor from kerb to kerb. Sticking with Ford but swapping keys, this time the drift champion and Top Gear USA host goes to the opposite end of the manufacturer's tuner garage and plucks a Fiesta ST for 'Ring duty.
The 179-horsepower front-wheel-driver acquits itself well by the end of the video. But be warned, Foust doesn't set a 'Ring time and it's shot like a commercial... because that's what it is. Still, you can enjoy all two minutes and 31 seconds of it below.

Ford pranks unsuspecting blind dates with Mustang GT and stunt driver

Thu, Feb 12 2015

There'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.
