It actually has semi decent lines this go round. It's a little generic, but that beats the ever loving shit out of the jelly bean years. Now source out another high output engine from Yamaha and bring back the SHO and we'll be on the right track.

                    The updated Taurus will debut with the 3.5L Duratec engine but will be joined later in the year by a new EcoBoost unit http://www.motorauthority.com/ford-d...rus-sedan.html

The only thing that kinda bothers me is that they reduced the greenhouse for that "me too 300C look". Kinda liked the visibilty of the old Taurus.
The rumors are for the SHO to be an AWD, slushbox, turbo 3.5 version with 350+ horses. As much as I have disliked Fords design choices over the past couple of years. I'm usually suprised when I actually drive them (cars only). Decent steering and not to bad of a drive. Here's hoping they do well. The new Fusion is supposed to be really good...now if only they'd over a 6spd manual with the 3.5 in that car. Or any car with a 3.5

And for some odd reason Ford sticks us with their shit cars. The European selection of cars always seems to be better rated/reviewed and built to a higher standard. They also seem to have actual performance options rather than some cheapo body panels and badges.
