In 2002 me and some friends were in Concord California and had seen a business man inwhat it looked to be a parked 1999 BlackTaurus SHO with some slightly differnt ground and body effects, with Svt badges and a manual transmission. Now i'm not sure if this was Twin turbo or not but this was for sure some type of concept of some sort cause they stopped making manuals for Taurus SHOs in 1995. I dont know of any manuals that would bolt up to the 3.4 liter V8. Any ideas ? Was this older dude really intoV6 Shosand did a V6 motor swap and slapped on some Svt badges on the seats and on the body. It looked more like it was produced then just body graphics. I never heard it or anything although I should have stuck around and asked. We checked out the car after he had already got out and left for where ever he was headed.
