2010 SHO...

I gotta say. This looks great and by the sound of it, it's going to be a BMW eater... All wheel drive? Paddle shifters? On a Taurus? Cool.

Trade the edge and buy one, for once the taurus/500 won't be a retired mans vehicle.

Twins on a taurus. Got to love it.

Na. I like the edge. Gotta have something to haul dive gear around.

You seen the size of the trunk on a taurus, you could fit 10 dead jrods back there!

11 stripper FTW

Looks like your average stereotypical sedan

does it come in a 5spd?

A stock TT 6 cylinder......I smell a lot of mods coming to this one. When was the last stock TT released? I cant think of any past the Supra?

The motor is good and all, good power, but how heavy is the thing? Maybe I didnt see that in the post.

This could be the mustang GT engine in a few years

I think by 2011 it will be an option or an SE since Car Dealers don't want people to "order cars" anymore like they did in the 60's. They want you to buy off the lot is will.

Tru dat, ford going to eco-boost in about everything, it should be a good motor that gets good mileage with power also.

Any stock TT should be set to make good power with a few mods. Hopefully Ford recognizes the market for moding that TT motor and doesnt build it to light.

Here's a quote from a guy who helped build several of the prototype vehicles.........he was answering this question:

I'm going to have to choose my words carefully here.

Tuning for more boost I suspect won't be much of an issue. But anyone who confuses this engine with the '03 Cobra 4.6L or Ford GT 5.4L (in terms of how far they can push the stock internals) is going to be in for a rude awakening.

My money is on Hennessey to be the first to blow one up http://jalopnik.com/tag/2010-henness...ho/?id=5154982

Wow, that doesnt sound very good. Still, if you want a little 4 door for the family sounds like a fun car to have.

Good find Jeff!

That said, I wouldn't mind replacing the wife's Mini Cooper with an 2011 Taurus SHO

I bet shes good for 400 RWHP at least...thats enough on a family car I would think

My Sable is about 150 hp... Too much power! Top speed (limited) 115mph (ask Jarrod)

I agree with that. Maybe more. Did it say 365? Yeah, your probably right.

It would be absolutely hilarious to rip someone a new one in one of those.

Those SHOs were ripping Fox bodies new ones back in the day...so its no suprise they will give us a run in todays horsepower war

Man that is crazy! I think they did a great job.

So true.

I for one will not be racing one of these on the street. Grandpa will had me my ass.

Well with that 5% tint you dont have to worry. No one will be able to see the tears rolling down your cheeks.
