2013 Ford Taurus Interceptor

[blaine109]

Thought you guys might like to see. Not a ton of in-depth information but it does have a new lower facia on the front bumper that will only be on the interceptors...

I like how they use an old Ranger/Crown Vic center cap that's been around for 10 years on the ugly steel wheel.

[SHO U UP]

400 hp huh? We shall see if that holds true once it is released. :swing: Would be nice to see the 2013 SHOs get that bump up in horses also.

I love the black door handles on that one.

Not sure how I feel on the front fascia. I dont like the grill, but the lower part is unique.

Being egocentric, I would prefer Ford to keep it at 365hp, so that our car 2010-2012 preserve their value better. That said, many of us in this forum have tasted Livernois' recipe to push it even higher than the 400hp... lol ; )

I wouldn't mind if the newer SHO's got more HP and value dropped slightly on the older ones.. I want another SHO

 

[somedude_001]

it would only make sense to bump the power up. That is the kind of thing you do to keep a product from getting stale... I hope they do not use that front bumper in production police cars. those thin supports are no match for a cop flying out of a parking lot and scraping pavement

Looks like an angry dog with its teeth bared.

They look more robust than the current ones and they don't break too often. They never did on my P71's and I hit a few curbs.

The '13 needs 400.

How in the heck can the sho not have 400? I mean every ecoboost across the line has 365 now.

I hope they surprise us and put the car back in the news right before launch and say that it will be upped to 400. That would be great marketing especially since they showed off the car pretty early and people have a short memory.

Why the **** it got dodge wheels.....

Am I the only one that hate those?

 

[Billm0066]

I like the wheels. I would have bought those for snow tires if they were available.
