READ!!!!!!!!!!

if this is legit (and i think it may be!) i very well may be selling my max and bike IF it meets expectations when it launches. 350 hp/350 ftlb

fucking awesome

That would be cool if they brought the SHO back, I've always liked the Taurus SHO, even the last gen. V8 SHO.

i got goosebumps! thats so awesome if ford decides to do it! Turbo V6

i hope it has a manual option too

i hope this idea goes throughwhen you get down to it ford only has the mustasng anymore for performance. The SHO along with the mustang and fusion turbo set up would give ford some balls again. as long as they dont try any of that fancy focus crap again.

i agree with you but I don't think there was anything wrong with the SVT Focus, i do believe it was underpowered compared to its competition but it out handled the cars in its competition. a 4cyl ecoboost in a SVT Focus? i think that would be sick.

kellz how much you want for you bike? what kind was it?

i really hope you didnt just call me kellz...... id have to kill you and myself

I think you're forgetting the terms of the auto bailout.
I wouldn't get my hopes up too soon of any future high performance vehicles once the current inventory is depleted.
Ford didn't need a bailout but did apply for the line of credit which forces it to adhere to the same guidelines.
Now if Ford were to make the SHO and SVT an independent performance company like the Shelby's were

did the bailout state no performance cars? what about the mustang? im curious, not questioning you

Hopefully it isn't as problematic as the previous ones. Cool car none the less

It stated less attention on performance models and more on high fuel mileage and fewer emissions and cars that the public want.
All the automakers have to work at the oil problem and start making more alternative energy cars and hybrids.
The modified performance cars are nice but the public as a whole doesn't buy them..Just like they now have to downsize production of SUVs because of fuel mileage.
Making cars that people don't buy was the biggest issue with the House and Senate,or only target advertising high profit cars like SUVs.
The mustang will still be made,but i bet you will see something like a 4cyl or small 6 cyl or hybrid designed more for fuel savings and fewer emissions.
The mustang has more options than just a high performance model.
I'd bet you will see the end of Chrysler all together.
I'd bet the Camaro will end up being a clone of the volt.
The Corvette and Mustang will be a puss and will end up being modified for performance aftermarket.Or,it will be a high performance electric.
As of now (before the new pres and company take the reigns) there is little room for big boy toys and there is a person to make sure the money and manufacturers go the way they are supposed to.
It won't happen suddenly but over time it will, but for now i think we will see less attention on performance and more on fuel saving and green house gases.
I know the performance people don't want to hear that but...oh well.
GM has already put a stop on some future performance projects and although they had already put the next Corvette on hold,it's on hold for and even longer time now.
It's the start of the Pinto Stang era all over again.

the 2010 SHO is coming out this summer starting at $37,995. it has a twin turbo eco-boost 3.5 V6 engine 365 horsepower 350 ft.-lbs. of torque, it is AWD, and it has paddle shift 6-speed.

cant wait to see some times on this

its cool...but id rather have me an older yamhammer SHO. You know you would too dos..


LOL
