Hello, recently traded my 2012 SEL Taurus for a 2015 Taurus SHO with 14k miles, White Platinum Exterior and Charcoal Black interior, leather and suede inserts. All for $23k. I've loved the SHO since it's 2010 Body style and enjoyed the Taurus. I'm in love with this car and ready to learn everything about the Ecoboost Twin Turbo and the car in general. Maybe asking questions here and there so thanks for the information ahead of time.

Thanks, T !

You'll come to appreciate the power differences alone between your old SEL, & your new to you SHO.

Plenty of helpful posts from active, knowledgeable members here, which will make your experiences equally as enjoyable, if not more so.

White still remains the faster color, so kudos on that color choice.

Welcome aboard !

I guess that's because White doesn't absorb Heat as compared to Darker colors!! Dunno!  Z
