It's a big ugly chunky piece of crap and has got an interior out of the 90's with big flat unimaginative surfaces.

AKA ALA typical American design.

What's the gist of the vid?

Yeah they are very 'yank tank' but the same can be said for the 300C, and they go alright.

A commercial utility and a dedicated sports car aren't quite the same thing tab.

Yes...but an XR/F6/GS ute is not a commercial vehicle.

Live axles are definitely more fun though. :3gears:

As they do in the falcon ute. :ermm:

The reviews on the SHO Taurus are actually pretty good; an AWD twin turbo 3.5 litre V6 is nothing to be ignored. Yeah it's still not up to the standard we are used to with the 4.0 T6 but there'll be another model or two before (and if) the time comes.

Add 0.3L and you have the GT-R drivetrain...pretty good methinks...

does the qaulity and performance even come close to the GTR's though? make it a 4.0 that revs to 8 happily, then that would be some serious fun

Some other sign of the zodiac perhaps?

Aries... no, Gemini! Hmm on second thoughts...

I was thinking more, cancer.

if this turns out to be the replacement for the falcon then I can not accept it.

its bigger, heavier, slower and not as appealing in the visual department.

that's some pretty big negatives.

how is the Australian market supposed to swallow this as the replacement when they think the current falcon is too big and thirsty?

oh I forgot, it has gadgets.

so all the mums and dads will buy them in the 10's of thousands now :fuckyou:
