How is a SHO different from a regular Taurus?
A. The Taurus SHO in all three generations is a completely different animal from the regular Ford Taurus. Most notably, it has a Yamaha-developed high performance engine that gives the SHO a significant performance advantage over the rest of the Taurus line. Generation I models came standard with a manual transmission, generation II models had an optional automatic. You will also find suspension tweaks, slight variations in body cladding , most of the higher-end interior options of the Ford Taurus line as well as some options unique to the SHO. For specific differences view the model year options in the general Taurus SHO information section (coming soon).
