2012 Ford Taurus Limited 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 6A)
4 of 5 people found this review helpful
I purchased this with 19k in November 12'. So far no issues. Get's decent fuel mileage on hwy avg 24.8 mpg. Like the size of the car and compared to several other models prior to purchase (toyota, lexus, maxima, bmw). Each has they're advantages, but just didn't feel the bang for the buck was equivilant. Really liked the bmw 5 series. Looks great on the outside, but kind of bland on the interior. Toyota was a little small. Lexus, I really liked, but can't bring myself to spend that type of money. Maxima was a good car, but was comparable to toyota.
faithful car..

owned this car for the past 10 years and its never let me down performance wise or sit along the road. and it gets used hard. at around 200k mileage, original powertrain and starter and alternator, ford did something right for the taurus in 2012. still drives great, id never trade it for anything else! interior is in tip top shape, no faded or cracked dash surfaces, quality is apparent and it rides great still and is a joy to drive, and has excellent acceleration still. its a good sedan, shame they don't still make a good reliable car like this anymore, just basic, good old fashioned reliability. gets ave. 26 mpg.

The car is great but does not hold it's value on trade in. Ford does not promote this car so it is a sleeper. It is a little bit like sitting in a cockpit when you drive. A little hard to get out of if you are big or have police equipment on like a police officer. Great ride and very nice looking car.

2012 Ford Taurus SHO 4dr Sedan AWD (3.5L 6cyl Turbo 6A)
4 of 6 people found this review helpful
With about 6k on my sho I like this ride. However I do not love this ride. Steering is tight and communicates with the road. Steering ratio is fair with a slightly heavy feel. The build quality is always way up there with ford, I've had a bunch! The main caveat I offer is this sedan is simply too heavy. Too heavy for fun. It feels it when braking or turning. It's skid pad numbers are poor. It has good styling and the cabin is quiet. Stereo is good. Ford SYNC is a poor interface IMO. MPG for me is for me invariably 20-21. My '12 is basically a fleet land yacht. She doesn't much like turning nor braking and I have the performance package.
