From the West Coast of Canada

Hello from the West Coast of Canada. I had my Fusion Sport for almost four years, so I thought it was time to upgrade. The Fusion sold me on AWD and I wanted more power and two choices I found were the Charger R/T AWD and the SHO. We don't get a lot of snow here so the Chargers are hard to find and the local dealer didn't want to get one from another dealer and wasn't able to tell me if the factory was even still building them. So off the the Ford store. After asking the salesman about getting an SHO, he said what colour would you like. Green has always been a favourite and I told him I would like the 402A (PP) package, he said yes so I now own it.

So that is me, here is what I have owned over the years:

1953 Chevrolet 2dr Sedan
1958 Meteor (Ford) 2dr Sedan 292 Y-block
1964 Corvair Spider 150hp turbo
1964 Chevrolet 4dr Sedan inline 6
1973 Pinto Wagon 2 liter German Ford engine
1979 Dodge 15 passenger van 400ci piece of junk
1989 Mustang LX Sedan 5.0 (RCMP Blue)
2000 Taurus Wagon Duratec V6
2007 Fusion SEL AWD 3.0
2010 Fusion Sport 3.5
2013 Taurus SHO


   
2013 Green Gem
SHO Performance Package, K&N Panel Filter
Tune by Unleashed Tuning, Escort Redline Detector
It's not easy being green

Congrats & welcome!  The Green SHOs are still a relative rarity, most I have seen are black, white, and blue.  I see you already have a tune in place. Have you had a chance to track it?
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

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!

Howdy!  I used to build Green SHO's on the Ford site.  I had a Green 94 and dreamed of reliving the days.  You will always be glad you got the SHO instead of the charger.
