Looks a bit juicy, and those wheels look like aftermarket ghetto specials in my opinion. For the money they are asking I think I would spend my cash elsewhere

Isn't the 2013 Ford SHO just a Saab 95 with a 3.5L turbo V6?

I don't think there's any connection or relation between the two

My mistake. I mixed up GM with Ford.

Totally agree....I've felt that way for years. It also gives it a nice two-tone effect missing with body-color panels.

Love this gen of the Taurus, howevert the craptastic wheels just do nothing for it. Have driven the newer models, and while not Lexus, I was impressed. Considering a limited version as my next vehicle. Price tag is abit steep though. Will be looking for a used model.
