[Shotimes] If Ford Asked you to build the next Taurus SHO

[Dave Garber]

3.5l-4.0l V8, DOHC/4 valve, 350HP min. Maybe with a SC for easy
aftermarket 'tuning'.

Capable of 14.0-13.5 off the showroom floor.

Sedan configuration weighing no more than 3400lbs.

RWD (IRS would be a plus)

6spd Manual with one OD gear (not two ala GM)

Seats like the Gen 3 SHO with adjustable bolsters like the Gen 1/2

Full gauge package (oil, water, etc so we don't have to add a pilar
mounted gauge kit)

True Dual exhaust

17x8 Wheels

Under 35k

Whatever sound system Ford has that's considered top-of-the-line
nowadays. 

Heated seats would be nice.

Black interior as an option would be nice too.

HID's

Memory seats would be cool.

Support from Ford would be a major plus. Support from SVT would put it
over the top.

If Ford came up to you and said " I need you to design the next Ford
Taurus SHO" what would it look like and what would be the specs?(i.e.
HP, Trans, Motor, size ETC....)

Kinda courious in what people would look for if they had a chance to
change the SHO. Although its already a great automobile but there is
always something that people would want to change.
