You are bidding on a Taurus SHO with the Yamaha V8.  It's a very fun car to drive, I've owned two over the past years.  This one in particular fell victim to the camshaft problem at 109,000 miles.  The engine was replaced with an engine having 100,000 miles on it and the cams were welded before the install.  The car runs fine now but there is a misfire code on cylinder #4.  With that and having an extra long commute to work, I'm getting a 4 cyl Saturn and selling my baby.

 

Plusses:

Fuel injectors rebuilt by Venom Performance (10% more flow and all matched within 1%) 4 months old

Pads and rotors in the front, pads in rear within last 6 mo.

New Bosch Alternator (Jan 06)

Silverstar Headlights Extreme White 5 mo. ago

Front tires brand new last week

KNN cone filter a year ago the secondaries sound fantastic

Pioneer 12 disc cd changer with mp3 capability and remotes (corded (shown) and wireless)

Within the last year the tie rods were replaced along with the inner and outer tie rods being done as well

Transmission was rebuilt 6 mo. ago by United transmission in Chicago suburb Niles (no worries on the trans :)

 

Minuses:

1 inch wear tear in the drivers seat shown

It leaks a little oil between changes (probable cause: the oil sending unit directly above the oil filter)

Rear tires have half tread left and are a 215/55/16 for better under/oversteer characteristics in my opinion

Engine code

 

 

Happy Bidding!  This is a NO RESERVE auction!!!

Car is sold as is with no warranty

Winner responsible for transportation

$500 due within 3 days of auction's end
