It's a Ford Taurus SHO, most likely. "Super High Output". It's a Taurus with 300+ HP, for some reason.

People like powerful cars and Ford already had the TT V6

Why the fuck would someone want that in a Taurus? Dragrace to waffle house after church?

Sleeper, plus it was more airdynamic than anything they had at the time. Honestly it was pretty sick. The Buick regal GS turbo is a similar vehicle people seem to enjoy, I guess old guy wanted a fast car his wife wanted something to go-to church in.

TIL they still made a Regal line. I guess I didn't know much about the Taurus, my only experience with it was getting chewed out for smoking in my best friend's dad's Taurus a million years ago, always saw it as a sensible family car/to work and back-er. That SHO looks pretty badass honestly. And apparently my state police had some Taurus cruisers. Who knew.
