my 1st non fox... Reply #15 – January 29, 2006, 09:46:33 PM I love the taurus platform. much better than any GM sedan of that era, or style. Our family has been through Bonnevilles, LeSabres, Intrepids, Regals, Cutlass's, etc (all FWD). But best car hands down was the 1993 Sable. Black on tan - good looking car with some bizzarre things - but great, solid, good handling platform. The only other one that came close was an Olds Intrigue (3.5 Shortstar). All the others were soggy boats, worthless and entirely unrewarding. I like them so much I was thinking about picking up a regular old taurus sedan for communting (the truck gets old.) Props on the SHO. I remember when a neighbor brought one home (first year for 2nd gen, so 1992 I guess?) My dad and I fell in love instantly. It looked just like yours. Awesome car. Quote Selected

my 1st non fox... Reply #18 – January 29, 2006, 11:10:18 PM oh yeah, speaking over newer ones, my grandmother has a 97 (or so, turtle body style) with a regular 3.0. Blue on Blue - can you believe they were still doing that in the late 90s? It only has 30K so I cant testify to its reliability. And on top of that, my cousin just bought an 02 Taurus. I dont think the newer ones (frog/ turtle body style and up) have as much character as the 86-95's. Just looking at them makes me want beat the out of it on gravel & dirt backroads. Quote Selected

my 1st non fox... Reply #20 – January 29, 2006, 11:18:25 PM Our 96 has every option that a Taurus can have, except the built in car phone. Couldn't use it now anyway. Its got serious character. Oh plus its a wagon. Mucho nico. Dark green with Dark green leather. Quote Selected
