My buddy owns a 2012 white on black that still only has 20k on it. Stored winters and mint still, looks sweet!!! He drove it to work for 2nd time this year last week and a guy with big truck rubbed his oversized tires on the passenger door that day...ouch

That there is azz-whooping territory.

I take it this is the old 5 speed?  Is the new ZF 8 speed the automatic in the Hellcat?  If the Hellcat's A8 gets installed in all of the 5.7/6.4 cars, should fix that.  Really wish the new Charger R/T kept AWD, love the refresh!

Yes, old 5 speed with paddles. Good news for him. Should've took pic of tire rub (it was bad I thought) as it was wheeled out to perfection.  Guess the monthly waxing payed off on thick layer of protection.

The charger is getting the same treatment too now.
The 2016 SHO needs the ford SC 5.8L motor thats all. :thumb: ... It'll blow all the AMG's, M's, and RS's out the water.
2011 Taurus SHO... factory for now.

700 lbs lighter is a good start on the SHO.

I have a feeling that due to the new engine bay restraints on the extended cd4 platform the new taurus SHO is going to get the 2.7L EB. I think some ford guys once stated the 3.5L EB wouldnt fit in the CD4. So shed 700lbs and lose a third of the displacement :(

I love that car! If ford ever brought the Falcon to the US I would have waited in line to buy one.

I believe the Ford Edge Sport is slated to receive the 2.7L EB as well.  Will be interesting if the tuned HP/TQ numbers will be different tho.  As for high displacement high powered engines stock from Ford, even the Mustang and F150 offerings are getting slimmed down.  The Mustang may be the last frontier in that respect.

If not Ford, at least Lincoln should get high end powertrains.  That's all I gots to says.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Seems to be Ford's plan for saving Lincoln. Gimp ford to make Lincoln more attractive.

The next gen SHO needs 450HP+ stock to compete with Dodge and Chevy.  Needs to cut 12.5's from the showroom.  Common' Ford!!

Never going to happen, they don't even advertise the current SHO. Twice in 3 days I had people come up to me and ask "is that a SHO? I didn't know they started making those again". It would conflict with the Stang and MKS. When was the last time Ford made a really high performance sedan? Other than the Falcon which isn't even available to us in North America.

Won't happen. I'm not sure what ford thinks of the sho... but it's seems as though its just a taurus with a little extra package.. not much if any love gets pushed our way. If they really wanted to make it a competitive sports sedan it would of been given more than 365 hp from the start. The sho is never advertised, it's like the adopted child that ford won't talk about. Just sits in the corner...

We will be lucky to even get the 3.5 next time... :(
13' SHO, Non-PP, Tuned by Torrie, Meth injection, 3 bar, 170* stat, custom axle back exhaust, Prosport Boost gauge.
15' F150 Lariat Sport, all the options, 3.5L Eco. (fiancée ride.)
13' GTCS, will be missed.
