2010-2019 Ford Taurus SHO Was A Sleeper Sedan Everyone Forgot About

For most of the 2010s, if you wanted a fast Ford with plenty of street cred, then you'd get your hands on the pony car Mustang. You could also take a look at some hot hatches. But in a quiet corner of the showroom, Ford had something else that could tempt you if you could manage to see beneath the bodywork to discover what was there. The Taurus full-size sedan that typically came in boring beige or silver colors and with bland styling had a version with all-wheel drive and twin turbos, with perhaps more power than Mustang GT V8s from a few years earlier. It didn't sound that impressive and certainly didn't look like much, but it was very ready to go when out on the open road. And perhaps the Ford Taurus SHO, which graced American roads between 2010 and 2019, was the ultimate Ford sleeper sport sedan from that era.
