I like the cts-v 4 door and wagon better than the SHO. Ford had a good idea but they really didnt deliver IMO. Now the aussie falcon, thats a different story

This thread was a joke, just like the SHO is IMO... LOL

it was a called ford 500. but they wanted to bring back the old name plate, because of so many fond memories people had with the taurus.

LOL... My wallet is from Kohl's & cost $20 bucks so I know you aren't talking about me? What's wrong with wanting to drive something clean, refined, but with a beastly cammed out pushrod motor under the hood at the same time? If it had a modern 351W under the hood or a Coyote motor & a Blue Oval badge on it everyone would love it, plain & simple! [ May 15, 2012, 11:21 PM: Message edited by: *EPIK* ]

CTS-V > Taurus all day every day
But if I were in the market for a sport sedan, and it absolutely HAD to be American, I'd get a Pontiac G8 GXP and covert it to Holden Commodore HSV

My S4 has the same power, less weight and AWD. Does that automatically make my Audi better than the Cadillac? Nope, nor do I feel the need to post Audi topics every time there's a fast one on YouTube.

Yes, she SHO is a better overall car than your older CTS-V. Yours is a dinosaur compared to a SHO when it comes to luxury and technology. As for straight up acceleration, nowadays anyone can go as fast as they want to spend so there really isn't any point in bench racing anymore. There are 12 second ecoboost Ford Flexes out there so no big deal

LOL... Your S4 is an overall NICER car than a 1st Gen CTS-V, but in stock trim makes no where near the same amount of power? How is 250hp/258tq the same as 400hp/395tq? Funny how everyone gets bent out of shape when I post ONE topic about a CTS-V running 9's, but they never notice that I post about Mustangs too, all the time. You guys live in the dark ages if you can't appreciate a cool car just because it has a GM badge on it....
Yeah, the SHO has more technological advances & more luxury, who cares it's a fuckin Taurus, & it's pretty bland IMO... Why am I not allowed to express MY PERSONAL opinion about a car that NOBODY on this site owns without getting bashed or hated on? Did I EVER say anything about ANY of your guys cars that you own? NO, I did NOT, but you guys all feel free to call my car gay, but I am willing to bet you have NEVER driven or been in a CTS-V...
I have an idea, why don't you guys find someone with a current gen Taurus to race me @ The Cafords carshow & we will no longer have to bench race.... Oh, I forgot, nobody on here owns one.... Why is that if they are SUCH cool cars???? [ May 16, 2012, 05:17 PM: Message edited by: *EPIK* ]

S4's, RS4's, RS6's, all nicer cars than a CTS-V, BUT what is the price tag on all those bad boys? I will bet you the Cadi has WAY more bang for the buck, is FAR cheaper off the lot, & will run 11's, 10's, even 9's easier, & MUCH cheaper than the Audis, & will have FAR less issues....

Arguing on the Internet is like winning the Special Olympics. Even if you win, you are still retarded.

Hey, I've been done with this argument, but peeps always have to come back with how EVERY car in the world is better than my car, or how much my car (that they've never been in) sucks! Funny thing is, THE ONLY car I see that someone in this thread actually owns (Besides me & my gay Cadi), or actually has been experienced 1st hand is a 2001 Audi S4.

New CTS is nice IMO, old base model CTS not so much... CTS-V, bet you've never been in or driven one....
So let me ask what it is you drive sir?

LOL man some response here, stirred up a hornets nest LOL. I personally see it like this the CTS-V and SHO are just different, any performance Ford guy is gonna be looking at a Mustang or a Shelby wheras a Cadillac person may get the CTS cause it's a vette with 4 doors because what else are they gonna roll in the cadillac lineup?? I think they both look cool but the SHO is wayyy overpriced in my book so I'd have to look closely at the CTSv and I've driven nothing but Ford since my 16th Bday.
