My Dream Ride
I had 1988 Sport Thunderbird and nothing has compared to my T-Bird, until Now! I LOVE this car. I opted for all the Bells and Whistles, except for the DVD Navigation. I do however, suggest that every new Taurus owner invest in BLIS. This car does have some blind spots that you really have to adjust to, so BLIS is a necessity as far as I am concerned! The trunk is even every families dream. Did I mention that "I LOVE THIS CAR!" as well as MANY other drivers, I have Never had so many people compliment me on my "Nice Ride" (regardless of age) as in this car!
Unresolved Problem
I drove the vehicle for 3 days and the wrench light appeared after a foul raw fuel smell was entering the drivers cabin. The Ford dealership managed to turn off the wrench light but not the raw fuel smell. It has been over 3 months in and out of the repair shop and they can't resolve the the raw fuel smell issue. We are concerned about out health driving this vehicle and Ford dismisses that there is any serious problem. If you're looking for reliability dependable transport look elsewhere. I regret selling my 12 year old Volvo with 200K at least the vehicle was easily serviceable.

The best new car on the road
I have had the Limited for about a month. I have driven Lexus vehicles for 15 years and this is more quiet than any Lexus I have owned and more fun to drive. It has great performance and a lot of technical features...my favorite is the adaptive cruise control and blind spot indicators. I have had many people want to look and at least two Mercedes owners looked at it and wanted to trade theirs in for this car. I think some may find the drivers space a bit confining due to the design of the console but the console itself is well put together. I have the tuxedo metallic black...really upscale looking
Pretty Good
Basics of what makes a vehicle a car are very good - fine fit and finish, drivetrain is plenty powerful,smooth, and flexible. Trunk space is superior. Ride is quiet, but would prefer a bit less stiff suspension and higher profile tires on a family sedan. I don't care about Indy car performance on the curves. I know pizzazz sells, but wish Engineers would shift emphasis a bit from entertainment and novelty to utility. Steering wheel paddle switch shifting to play manual transmission is an idea whose time should have never come. Long after the shine wears off, such mundane things as a garage door opener and a trash container - not included - would be more satisfying.
SHO Beats the Supercharged Mustang GT I Owned!
I don't know about the SEL or Limited, but the SHO is by far the most fun car I have ever owned. It beats my 2011 700 HP Mustang GT for fun driving. I have the perfomance package with lower gear ration, firmer ride, etc. I have loaned it to my car buddies who are completely amazed. I took this lovely sedan to the dragstrip and with only a tune from Livernois Motorsports it ran a 12.99. That is FAST for a large car that gets 28 MPG on the highway. The size and firm ride remind of my 1970 Torino 429 Cobra Jet or the 1970 Roadrunner I owned with the firm ride. However the SHO handles very, very good. I cannot speak for the standard SHO, but I want to buy a 2018 Mustang GT, but don't want the small size and lower stance.
