The Taurus is no longer Ford's midsize, the Fusion took that honor. So, the Taurus is now the full size flagship in Ford's fleet. The weight comes from the AWD system, and all the amenities inside. Drive one, it's an awesome car.

sure its fast but its auto and is quite possibly the ugliest car on the market. add it to the list of the neon srt4, subaru wrx, and mitsu evo that lose most of their appeal because of their looks.
you obviously haven't checked vehicle prices or value retained over the years. The wrx and evo maintain over half their value over 5 years and 80k miles on them.
Why can't Ford make a decent looking car? I mean this thing is just fugly. Ford needs to start with a clean slate. Fire all of their current designers and bring in some new blood that can bring some excitement back.
I didn't say they ALL weight that much, THIS car with THIS driver with THIS much gas weighed in THAT much. It's not rocket science, C&D probably weighs the car with no gas, no driver. Beefcake is a big mofo and gas isn't light. Taking out a 40lb seat doesn't quite make up for 10 gallons of gas and a heavy driver. lol
97boostgrandprixgt if u think ur car is sooooo great the y is FORD still on the top and pontiac out of buissness ............... thats right cuase for makes cars for the peaple by the peaple and ponitac as a sisist im gms side soo gm cut them lol
The SHO is crap. 1000lbs over weight to make it "Luxury". The old SHOs with Yamaha engines were great. Either way the EcoBoost engine in a ~3500lb or less Mustang is FTW.
No shit L67 is a motor. I had hoped you would know that. I didn't want to list off every car they put that engine in, considering there's a lot. The Aussie Monaro being one of them...
they are ugly but fast as hell!!

I agree about the wheels... Leave those stupid looking things for tacky 300Cs. Awesome time though for a luxurious land-yacht.

Great car, great engine, but the trans KILLS it. Not having a manual option ruins the car in my opinion.

Frank...It's Ford.
Their idea of quality is to make the appliance as heavy as possible.
That and copying Toyota's blandness inside and out.
