Re: Ford Taurus SHO 2010 Driving and Interior

OK, but a comment such as "an Evo will walk all over it" is pretty one sided and generic. An Evo will walk all over a G37 for less money also, and an Acura TL, but who cares when they are built with a different purpose and goal in mind? I'm going to go on a limb and say that this car was not built with a stearn mindset that most of them will see real track time. I'd guess they were probably going for more along the lines of a 4dr comfy family car that has some good get up n go and can be fun on the street, while still keeping the in-laws happy and cozy in the back seat, with a not so overly "look at me" look, yet still being a little edgier than the norm.

I bet there is more interior space, more trunk space, and a slightly smoother ride than an Evo X MR.

Don't get me wrong, I'd take the Evo over it anyday. But I can guarantee you my dad would choose the opposite.
