-Hot-rod Ford Taurus SHO lives again

Autoweek has already pulled this article down!
I guess they were afraid of something. Any chance they weren't allowed to post it that quickly?

Re: June 17, 2009

Dang, glad I read it already, but wish it was still pulled up. They weren't supposed to post it, but apparently 2 other sites posted early, so they posted theirs. Maybe those 2 other sites pulled their articles, so they had to pull theirs too.

Re: June 17, 2009

Hmm, that is just an old article from what I can tell. Car & Driver posted theirs...

Car & Driver 2010 Ford Taurus SHO Road Test

Ouch...

We almost feel bad for first-gen SHO owners because watching a V-6 Camry—with an Elmo sun blocker and a baby seat—pull away from what was once the American sports sedan must play hell on memories of what used to pass for speed.

BIG OUCH...

"Even true believers have to admit the third generation didn’t quite live up: “I bought one of the last ’99 SHO models, thinking it might be a collector’s item one day,” a Taurus clubber recalls. “I kept it until I was beaten by a Pontiac Grand Am GT in a drag race.”"

Re: June 17, 2009

The Autoweek Taurus SHO article got reposted and the original link has been updated, but expect a lot more from other places in today's car news.
