It is, very impressive.
I asked him on another board and he said just a tune and a basic CAI he made.
I wonder if I can sneak in the tune w/o my wife knowing :).

**alexstang07** · 10-11-2009, 07:56 PM

a taurus faster then the mustang ?

**scott5** · 10-11-2009, 08:22 PM

nice.. that is why i think the sho wont last long or the hp on the mustang will bump upp

**sinful rides** · 10-11-2009, 08:54 PM

That is crazy. I knew they were fast but not that fast. I saw one at Charrapp Ford but for almost $50k for a taraus, I'd still buy a GT mustang. I just don't think they'll sale as many as they could for that price.

The new SHOs are very impressive. Great interiors. Nice styling. Paddle shifters. AWD. And lots of power to go with all that grip. I saw one at the Waterfront cruise for the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix - the Ford rep there with it said that particular one stickered for a little over $43k - and it was pretty loaded.

saw one tonight at a light. The guy and his woman were looking at my cobra and I was checking out their sho, Lol.

That thing was nice. I was thinking about trying to get one.

2011 GT gets a 4V 5.0 and supposedly 400hp and a 6-speed
Also, Ecoboost 3.5 supposedly in 2011 F150 and tuned for 400 ftlb in a rwd application.
Not bad plans.
I still want to see how much boost the tune gave him and how reliable they are with a tune.
And people that can't understand $40k for a SHO should realize they are moving the Taurus upmarket right or wrong, but its actually a good deal for the equipment and performance.
