MikeSgagz Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 I was searching around on google and came across these two links! They look obviously legit. THE INTERIOR LOOKS BEAUTIFUL!!! The steering wheel seems to have the lincoln star logo but I'm think it was used to throw people off. THE SHOTS LOOK JUST LIKE THE SPY PIC FROM A WHILE BACK. I'm pretty excited if this is the next Taurus! Here's the links, go check them out!

RichardJensen Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 no, you're not good at typing. PS. If mkiz edits his post, mine will no longer be wry and amusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeSgagz Posted July 25, 2008 Author Share Posted July 25, 2008 Sorry if this was posted before, I guess I didn't see that post. And yea mkizlvr there looks to be something around the steering column. It could possibly be paddle shifters especially since the photos are supposed to be the SHO model. The interior looks beautiful though and if this infact the SHO, I hope the exact same interior follows over to the nomal Taurus. oh and btw if this really is the Taurus interior, I can definitly see people switching over to buy this car. I wonder what the navigation system in it will look like..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHOz Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Looks like it has paddle shitters doesnt it? I was at the focus group that Ford marketing had in the Chicago area this spring. Paddle shifters and AWD were mentioned. Along with the EcoTec motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P71_CrownVic Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Along with the EcoTec motor. Sweet. That should help the GM stock!! J/K...I know you were talking about the Twin Force engines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that's not true, Ford finally found a way to make all Five Hundreads more attractive, they brought out the fuglied up D3 Taurus. Oh, and just say no to .

rmc523 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Looks like it has paddle shitters doesnt it? Good eye! I never noticed that before; it does appear that those could be paddle shifters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeSgagz Posted July 30, 2008 Author Share Posted July 30, 2008 I am getting a little worried now that I keep looking at the spy shots. Although the new interior looks great, I'm questioning the exterior. The front looks alittle too foreign, and what's up with the rear end? It's shorter and EXTREMELY high up. And to top it all off the sides really resemble the mks. I don't know but I'm getting worried. I just hope they don't make the Taurus TOO sporty and go alittle too overboard with it....

Ford-150 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Good eye! I never noticed that before; it does appear that those could be paddle shifters. i've been waiting for Ford to put paddle shifters into their NA vehicles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know but I'm getting worried. I just hope they don't make the Taurus TOO sporty and go alittle too overboard with it.... There is quite a bit of padding under the rear portions of the camouflage. I wouldn't be too worried about the height of the decklid. The reason it looks a bit shorter is because the rear of the greenhouse doesn't come down at as steep a rake as the current model. Probably an optical illusion to a great extent. The sides, while somewhat similar to the MKS, do appear to differ greatly in the design of the fenders, judging by what little can be seen in conjunction with the leaked photo. With a car the size of the Taurus, I don't think being TOO sporty can ever really be accomplished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeSgagz Posted July 31, 2008 Author Share Posted July 31, 2008 Yeah you do have a point. Well we're gonna have to wait patiently until we can see more....BUT DAMMIT I really wannna see this Taurus now! (I can't believe I just said that. haha) I have a feeling though that this new Taurus is gonna be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
