Ahh misbadging at it's best (or worst mind you)
Speaking of SHO's
I actually saw a early 90's Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera with SHO badging. Large ones on the front quarters and another smaller one on the rear decklid.
When I asked the kid about it he responded it was a special edition with the high output engine and he looked everywhere for one. (Where did he make this crap up?)
Needless to say I could not hold my laughter in. He wouldn't say what he paid for it at that point, but I could tell it was a hell of a lot more than he should have.
BTW - it was a normal 2.3L 4-cylinder with an ATX (not even the the HO Quad 4)
Poor schlep... :rolleyes:
Why do people think misbadging is so cool when it only makes them look like complete morons???

I used to have an SVT, but it's long gone.
{I do hate spam, but that isn't really part of my email address. Remove the string ?HatesSpam? from the email address ?BobHatesSpam@blaylock.to? to email me. No advertisements. Spammers will be dealt with very harshly!} ------- Moonlight Blue 1996 Mercury Mystique GS , Zetec engine, ATX. No mods. (Well, OK, one mod. Before I got rid of my previous car, a 1994 Tempo, I swapped radios. I liked the Tempo's radio better. That counts as a mod, doesn't it? I also kept one of my Tempo's wheels to use as a spare. I hate those stupid ?compact? spares that come with modern cars. Does this count as a mod? If so, I guess I have two mods. Replaced burned/melted blower switch and connector on 19 February 2002 with a 1P3T toggle switch from Marvac and a Molex connector from Rat Shack; I guess this now makes three mods.)

There was actually someone on this forum who had a Ford Contour Mondeo SE SVT Sport Spree etc. something-or-other vehicle. Nontheless, he got flamed when he posted pics of his car... I'll try searching for his post!
