It looks as though the new Ford Taurus SHO will also be part of Ford’s line-up for the upcoming 2012 SEMA Show. The first tuning package that has been announced is by CGS Motorsports and shows off a wrapped Taurus SHO, leaving it dressed to impress for a black-tie affair. The SHO is geared with CGS Performance Products and all the finest aftermarket components making it worthy to roll out on the red carpet. While no official details have been provided just yet, the first image reveals a carbon fiber engine bonnet, hood, and rear spoiler. The concept is painted in a very cool white combined with different black elements and sits on a new set of wheels combined with new brake calipers. Under the hood, CGS opted for the 3.5 liter EcoBoost V6 engine combined with a six-speed selectShift automatic transmission, but at this point, we can not tell for sure if we will see any power upgrades. .
12 comments: Ford Taurus SHO by CGS Motorsports interesting comparison. but this car is like a hamburger with lots of tabasco. not knowing what you get into will get you burned!
alex is right. it is like comparing a hamburger to an italian panini. both are fast food and look roughly the same, but are completely different.
the european cars and the american ones have different targets. that is why i think it is wrong to compare them against each others.
i am saying that because i have recently been to europe and i drove the new m5 and it is one of the best saloons i have drive. that is why i doubt the taurus.
brad, i do not think that the regular taurus can match the bmw 5 series, audi a6 or mercedes e class. but this tuned up version may have a go against their tuned up versions.
john, i also think of nascar when one mentions the taurus. but looking at the pictures i rather think of sport saloons rather than racing.
