Thats as bad as this kid with a 'heavily modded' nissan sentra who thought he could beat me. Apparently 'heavily modded' means cheap CAI and a muffler. :rolleyes:

Yeah, I'm calling BS too. Theres absolutely no way a GST can beat a Taurus. That's impossible.

ROFLOL Thats like the time I raced a WRX in my Camry just to watch it go fast. The difference is, I knew I wasn't going to win, unlike the Taurus moron

whoa first of all I have a 91 taurus with the 3.0 V6!! it cannot be beaten by a stupid 4 banger! with a stupid turbo...theres no way, the taurus makes 100hp per liter my uncle works at ford and he said so. the only thing that can beat the taurus is an SHO or a mustang V8!! noobs!

seriously though, if it were a 1st gen SHO it might have walked away from you at top end.

congratulations, you've achieved a kill equivalent to me going to an elementary school play ground and kicking all 5th graders asses in kickball. what's next on the kill list, a geo metro, a kid on a moped?

i raced my old taurus once...against a non-turbo laser; and he beat me. In my defense I had just turned 16 and I was stupid.

one time I raced a FWD TSi with an upgraded IC and exhaust with my Taurus on a track. He only ran a 15.0 to my 15.7, he couldn't drive though, his friend jumped in and was able to run 14.4's with it.

1g (89-91) and 2g (92-95) SHO's had the same engine, the 1G's were a little faster since they had less safety equipment and luxury crap. Also every 1G was a manual. the third Gen SHO ('96-'99) was the V8 and auto-only, it was a tad bit slower than a well driven 1G or 2G Manual, if they would've managed to keep its weight down though it probably would've been as fast or faster though.
1/2G SHO Manual 14.8-15.5
2G SHO Auto 15.2-15.6
3G SHO 15.2-15.5
3/4G Duratec 15.9-16.1
1/2/3/4G Vulcan 16.7-17.4
1/2G SHO Manual 14.8-15.5
2G SHO Auto 15.2-15.6
3G SHO 15.2-15.5
3/4G Duratec 15.9-16.1
1/2/3/4G Vulcan 16.7-17.4

Well the old Taurus SHO's were pretty quick. A run of the mill taurus is a joke though. I think the main problem people have with your post, author, is posting about beating a weak car.

Taurus's are just beasts. Personally, I think they should do away with teh V6 mustang for good although it is still a nice car and all, the V8's are the stars. The engineering feat achieved at the production of the ford taurus will never be surpassed. Its just that simple.

lol . 2 from what i belive they were 18-20 and yeah it was pretty fast. i know v-6s are for chicks and v-8s for guys lol.

I agree, i know several people with 1st gen SHO's and trust me, they have something going for them (except reliability and build quality).

Whats a 3.0L Taurus got 200HP??. Sounds Ballsey but then you have to factor in the weight factor and the fact that Taurus'es are designed for getting groceries and getting sweet felacio in the backseat(Station Wagon model only)...
