I always thought that some of the spy pics that go up on the web would get taken down by the car company it belonged to.

RE: Spy Photo: 2010 Ford Taurus Caught
I will have to wait until I see it in person before I make a judgement call. It does look like an improvement though, possibly the best looking Taurus since 1995 (though that isn't saying much considering the catfish styling then that overstyled, excessive chrome grille. I hope this does well. I hope they name the Ecoboost model the SHO.
Billionare, the reason why some of us care is the fact that the Taurus has been a long running icon of Ford since it put Ford back on the map back in 1986 and I think most of us want to see Ford turn around and succeed again.

Billionaire, it's not the Taurus so much, we are all car enthusiasts to some extent here. Hence this was posted in the off topic area. While some of us are bigger Mopar fans here than others, it's an area where we can talk about the other manufacturers as well.
As for this Tuarus, I just want to see get Ford back in the thick of things here in the US. The past leadership team of Ford killed what was a vehicle and platform that brought folks to Ford and their dealerships. Look at Toyota and Honda, the Camry and the Accord have been around forever, so to speak, with constant evolution of their platform, improvement in quality, and a continuum in the model, hence bringing buyers to them and their dealerships. The Tuarus was the leader in mid size sales, yet Ford just dropped the ball and let it go, thereby relinquishing support for their company.

Agreed, there is not sense in losing an American motor company to an overseas company that easy. I wish our Detroit brethren well in their quest to make the next great automobile.
