I traded in a SHO for my SVT. Awesome car, it was an ATX but could chirp the tires on the 2-3 shift. Then again, that might have just been because the transmission was screwy. It had about 124k on it and probably only had about 10 more good miles to go before it was going to completely blow up. The look on the car salesmans face after he test drove it said that he regretted agreeing to give me $1500 for it. laugh

The handling was nothing compared to the SVT but it kicked ass for a taurus. And it was faaaast. It also had black interior and non working A/C and then the sunroof broke when the cheap plastic gears melted. It was an oven in the summer. It was also not running more often than not.

I'm hoping the SVT holds together a little better, but if it gets to that many miles I think its going to be the same thing.
