I'm holding out for the new 5.4 L six-speed Falcon....supposed to be here
for '05. I did confirm this with a local dealer, so unless he was very
mis-informed, I assume it's gonna be here.

> Replacements for the SHO are one of our favorite topics. I've thought
about this a lot, probably lots of other people have also. I've looked at
the WRX but for me personally I needed a larger car although someone could
argue that the WRX comes in a wagon version also. The new turbo Legacy may
be even better when it arrives. The new Mazda 6 seems to be a good
replacement- in many ways equal to the specs of the SHO. It also comes in
wagon form. I've considered the Maxima and the G35, even the Acura TL.
There are a few Pontiac models that could be considered but I usually don't.
