how to tell a new SHO from the normal Taurus?

[theboneskes]

I see alot of new Taurus's and want to know how do I tell the difference between the standard Taurus, SEL, Limited, and the SHO? Is the SHO dual exhaust? Driving lights? Sorry to sound like an idiot...I can always tell on a Gen1,2, and 3...

I'd love to have a new one, wish I had the $$

Dual exhaust....with chrome around taillights (Boo!!).

Or, off a light, it pulls away from you really f-in quickly!!

that y-yoke split dual exhaust is a dead give-away from a distance.

The guys here are right, but the 2013 Limited models look like the 2010-2012 SHOs. The newest ones of the bunch are really hard to differentiate if you don't know what you're looking for.

didn't know that....haven't seen a 2013 on the road yet, though

If you see the tail lights, chances are it is a SHO....

2013s have dual exhaust on all models. You have to see the mesh grille, or the SHO fender vents, or the goofy flower wheels....

If you see the 2010-2012, dual exhaust from the back, silver fog surrounds from the front (vs black), or SHO emblem on the C-pillar

Yup Ive seen the 2013 up close and personal , it was only a SEL , it had duals , was FWD and had leather. The back lens are changed - no more chromed liner.

The easiest way is the wheels. Then confirm with the badges on the back. The 13 are really easy to spot they really stand out from regular tauri
