My car was dis-contiuned in 02 and The M45 would still get raped by my car all day, every day. When it comes to performance, The M45 cant compete with a Pure muscle/sports car or whatever you want to call it. My car was made with a big motor for power junkies…the M45 is luxury its just so damn big they had to stick a 335hp motor under the hood just to make it get out of its own way. > > you realize that just because it has the same HP rating, doesnt mean it can compete right? were talking about a car thats made to be comfortable against a car made to go fast. Gearing/weight transfer/weight itself all play a huge roll. 335HP whether or not it is go-fast or go-luxury is a lot of horsepower. Also, the M has had 335 since 2006. Not that it matters. But just sayin. You are missing the point. What I am saying is that THAT SHO (not your Z28!!) is not better than another car that you can get for the price (M45 - which weighs less - meaning it would probably beat the SHO in a race). We are not talking about my Maxima or your Z28. This is M45 vs SHO (at least that’s what I’m talking about). Infiniti \> Ford. Your car is STRICTLY a go-fast car. This SHO, as far as I can tell, is supposed to cater to the person who wants a ‘nice’ car that also moves. Fail. There is already a bunch of cars out there that accomplish this and have better reputations, quality, etc. (BMW 335, Audi A6, Acura TL, Infiniti M or G, etc.) --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/new-ford-taurus-sho-45-905/244842)._
