In recent months, we’ve seen a host of Ford Taurus models in nice condition with lower mileage surface for sale at auction, whether that be family haulers like a 49k-mile 1993 GL wagon or a high-performance 1993 Ford Taurus SHO with a mere 43k miles on the clock. Now, those looking for a well-kept example of the discontinued model can find another one at Bring a Trailer right now – this stellar 1995 Ford Taurus SHO, which has a mere 50k miles showing on the odometer.
This particular 1995 Ford Taurus SHO has been around the proverbial block a bit after living with six owners thus far, but it certainly looks no worse for wear – and none of those owners clearly drove it very much over the past nearly three decades, either. It is a clean, accident-free example as well, with just a couple of minor blemishes marring its Silver Frost Clearcoat Metallic paint.
The Opal Gray cloth and leather interior is also in nice cosmetic condition, though the horn and clock aren’t currently operational. It does offer up a handful of amenities, however, which include a leather-wrapped steering wheel, power-adjustable front seats, a cassette stereo, automatic climate control, cruise control, and power windows and locks.
Power for this 1995 Ford Taurus SHO comes from the somewhat famous Yamaha-sourced DOHC 3.2L V6, which was factory-rated to produce 220 horsepower and 215 pound-feet of torque. It sends that power to the front wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission for what was once considered brisk performance, though it’s still perfectly acceptable even by today’s lofty standards. Perhaps more importantly, nice SHOs like this one are getting harder to find, making this one a rather enticing offering.

Why would anyone want a car from Fords worst years. It looks cheap and it’s ugly. These were the years where ford put little to no effort into building cars.
These were the days when Ford decided to save money even going as far as using 4 lug nuts per wheel. Saving the price of 4 lug nuts. The corner cutting was obvious everywhere.
Because the SHO is legendary. And we’re amazing for their time.
Just some kid with nothing better to do.
That’s great, Rob, do you feel better, now? I love the “4 lug nuts per wheel” bit, too. Doesn’t make it sound like you’re making it up at all, buddy. Not at all. I’m sure people bought millions of these cars with missing lugnuts and never noticed. Only you did, but only after you took one from each of your neighbors wheels, right? Then it’s Fords fault. They did it, right?
Needs a manual transmission in a SHO.
I have a ’95 regular Taurus, almost 300k miles on its original drivetrain (3.0L/AX4N). I have bought other cars, but it just keeps going and going and I refuse to get rid of it.
At least it’s far better than what is being offered today by Ford/Lincoln
