the SHO is badass. I know that one day when I am married and have kids I will have a mustang for my fun car, a SHO for the dd, and an F-150 for hauling stuff. this is the performance car for the guy who is married and has kids

i dont understand the problem here....taurus vs. mustang?!?!?!?! who cares????? what you are seeing is a car directly hitting a target market that is owned by imports (BMW 3-series, MB C-class, Lexus IS, Infinity G-series, etc.) and Ford had nothing to work with (the 500 lol please what a joke)
I do hope (and knowing Ford it probably will) that some type of modification for the Lincoln brand will come and be badged as the LS...

He seemed shocked that a taurus with more than half a liter less displacement and a couple years older beat him.
70 more horsepower will do that though haha

Anyway, I think the new SHO is sexy and I would drive one :-) You guys seem to be forgetting too that the new SHO is going to be a lot heavier than the mustang. It's gonna weigh in at about 4100 pounds. The current Mustang GT will still be as fast or Faster than the coming SHO. Ford sells trucks with more hp and far more torque than the Mustang and I don't hear anyone complaining about that :-)

That video has absolutely nothing to do with anything being discussed here. And the old SHOs were pretty quick, and the new SHO will be even quicker.
