Well not really, but my bro did. His car was stolen at school last week and he needed a new car anyway, so I found him a real nice 96 Taurus SHO. The car is pretty mint. The motor has 72,000 and is from a 99 SHO, and the body has 128,000 on it. It is black with grey leather and is fully loaded! Anyways the car ran a drove mint and I could tell it was good so we bought it on the spot. The guy is a mechanic and did a lot of work to the car himself. He was asking $4500, but I knocked him down to $3700. Pretty good deal considering the book value is around $5500. The motor swap was done by a local Ford dealership and he has all the paperwork. He said the factory motor went bad due to a defect with the cam gear, so that is why the swap was done. The car has a 3.4L 8cyl and to my surprise moved pretty well.... Anyway the car is mint in and out and everything works. It also has a factory 6 disc cd changer in the trunk which is a plus. Dunno, I was borred and just thought I'd share :grinno:
