Thinking about getting a used SHO
My local dealer has a CPO 2010 SHO with ~41,000 miles for $26,988, going by KBB it's not to bad of a deal. Now that the new taurus have been around for a few years are there any issues with the 3.5 ecoboost or the SHO's all wheel drive system I should now about and look for?

1. The chrome plastic tape peeled off of the taillight trim and other people had it peel off elsewhere. Look for that.
2. If it has the rear window pop up shade screen it would vibrate even at low volume from the bass. There was a TSB in it but it didn't bother me enough to have fixed. It was more like a muffled low vibration noise.
There is a SHO forum in the net. I forget the name. Just google it as join and see what they say. I joined but never really used it much.

Also I would add that while it is all wheel drive it is really a front wheel drive car that also has rear drive wheels. And it drives much like a front wheel drive car.
And I found the paddle shifters to be worthless. I was usually bouncing off the rev limiter before the paddle shift even took effect.

I think $26,988 i a decent price for this used car. Ive also got 10 SHO about a year ago and it also had 40,000 mileage, but I got it cheaper because I was looking for salvage cheap mustangs for sale, of course I needed some repairs to be done though, but anyway I like this car as its very reliable.
