While visiting my Grandmother yesterday, I got a rare treat of seeing one of the new FORD high power prototype vehicles on the road. I bet this thing can go real fast!!!!

It looks like a taurus with a wing...I'd say its more or less some high school kidwanted to make his car look tough or that it could go fast.

I was assuming this was a joke. Seeing as how this is an obvious ricer with an unnecessary spoiler. And ricer idiots tend to think that by chopping off their mufflers and adding wings they go faster and gain HP. uh huh :P

I bet that wing adds 80 bhp just by itself.

I hear vinyl decals add 2.5hp per square inch of coverage.

Seriously... this has to be a joke.

Michael W. I'm not saying that he doesn't it just looks like a ford taurus (If I'm even spelling it right?), if it is indeed a new prototype then I'll be damned, but for the time being I say its a Taurus with a wing, with say maybe a 17-21 yr old behind the wheel.

Figured it would be Jersey plates. I see those prototypes all the time. Some of them make an interesting farting sound when accelerating. They must be using the new renewable methane fuel technology.

Link2

and my own personal all-time favourite, the "King Transit" (it even used to have a huge plywood spoiler on the roof)

Too bad it probably has the same 4-cylinder non-turbo diesel as an ordinary Ford Transit of that year suprised
