Default Bought my wife a new Taurus...

Actually traded in the 01, greatest car ever (never even replaced a bulb) at 120k miles. Just tires, brakes, and routine maintenance.

Now we have this...







Not a SHO (they're close to $40k ) but a SEL.

Yeah it scoots.
Cruising along at 80 mph, motor isn't turning 2k RPM.
Has the 3.5 built in Lima, putting out like 260+ HP into a 6 speed auto with tha paddle shifters. I for-see lotza speeding tickets in our future if we're not careful.
