jcrome04 Posted March 1, 2009 Author Share Posted March 1, 2009 Well MSRP is ~$29g I'm probably going to end up keeping my LS for a while though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocco B. Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Why would you sell it!?! That car has one of the best engines ever made by Lexus in my opinion. But, I guess after 12 years (if you bought it new) you're kind of done with the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcrome04 Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 I'll have to get over it and get it's quirks fixed. I HATE repairing cars lol. Just get a new one! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcrome04 Posted March 3, 2009 Author Share Posted March 3, 2009 Oh God I couldn't imagine owning a BMW or ANY other German vehicle!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocco B. Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Yeah they're so unreliable. You would probably end up not having it more than having it because it would be in the shop so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 This is why the prices are what they are and how they manage to unprice the market? And how can you expect consistant qualty from a car company with *BLEEP*ed off employees every year? I don't know, I don't think I want my car being assembled by a bunch of guys that are grumbling about pay, work condidtions and weather or not they ware going on strike again in the afternoon. There isn't a car company out there that isn't going through these things right now INCLUDING Toyota. Toyota's slipping revenue is incredible... Its the economy, nothing more. People just aren't buying cars... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocco B. Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Yeah that is why this new Taurus is one of the biggest releases in Ford history because the Taurus is a car that is supposed to be on the cheaper side and is a popular car. So at this time it is critical that Ford gets this Taurus right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcrome04 Posted March 5, 2009 Author Share Posted March 5, 2009 I think it's VERY right so far. Ford is finally moving in a great new direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocco B. Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 As far as I can see, I feel the same way. It's not a generic car like the last Taurus was. Its a pretty good looking car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcrome04 Posted March 5, 2009 Author Share Posted March 5, 2009 When the Taurus originally came out wasn't it honored for such a futuristic design? The future of car design? lol That's the reason they used them in Robocop! Cause they were so futuristic looking! LOL! Boy I'll tell ya cars will be flying before we know it!!!

SW03ES Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Yep, it definately was. The Taurus saved Ford from ruin in the 80s. Then they tried to recreate that in 1996 when they rolled out the oval-disaster. Didnt work as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcrome04 Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 In all honesty though.... The SHO is the perfect sleeper... and that was the express purpose of the vehicle.. a sleeper. That thing with a few good bolt on's would be nothing to scoff at ;) Lol the pic got deleted from photobucket already? dang hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocco B. Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 haha yeah thats a pretty true statement, it is a sleeper cause you could easily fall asleep behind the wheel cause the ride is sooo boring ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
