New stable-mate for the Mustang

[GoTime]

Went searching for a newer car for my "BetterHalf" and ended up grabbing a 2010 SHO with 18,000 km (11,000 miles) on it in near mint condition.

Pretty impressive car actually, and can't wait to take a long trip in it.

Now that my significant other has a twin turbocharged vehicle, it stands to reason that the Mustang should be twin turbocharged also. Lol!

Here are a couple of pics and thanks for looking...

...Bleeding all blue now...

that's what I just bought my wife. same color too! unfortunately on the way home it started misfiring. so far it has been in the shop for 2 weeks and I have owned it for 17days. they replaced all spark plugs, replaced a coil, replaced the master cylinder, replaced the brake booster, the drivers seat cooling does not work, one of the key fobs keeps saying "key not detected", and there is a nasty rattle in the dash at 75mph. cant wait to get the car back and actually spend some time in it!! oh and of coarse order a tune

 

[frijol79]

Nice looking

the taurus redesign is nice. For such a big looking car, how does it drive? (is it faster than your mustang?)

i would be afraid to order a tune for a car that just got done having so many issues fixed....

Nice stable

"Better Half", "significant other" is the only description of the person you used to describe the person you bought it for? I'm guessing he liked the car?

 

[HEMI LOL]

with a tune they make 445 crank hp. that means 0-60 around 4.2 and high 12s@108-109. with a livernois +4 tune and meth 500 crank hp and 0-60 under 4, low 12s@117+

in other retarded fast for what it is.

 

[o2gt]

that sounds like a very nice upgrade, sounds like a fun car to drive. I understand that made some changes in the last year or so. look to be great cars.

sadly the 10s have some issues, not power train, but with tech as the OP is facing.

Ouch, I hope you can get things worked out with the car. So far so good for us.

Nice looking

Thank you.:beer:

Definitely not faster than the Mustang but I don't think the SHO would lose sight of the Mustang either. Definitely impressed and pleased with the performance.

Nice.

Hopefully the car will be worth the effort and expense when dealing with them down the road. We shall see. Right now, everything works! Lol!:beer:

Noticed that too....

 

[USNjocson]

Nice I havent seen a red SHO before. The only ones Ive seen were white or black

BTW those tail lights look like cicada eyes
