Great solid and comfortable car to drive.

Great solid and comfortable car to drive. There was a bit of a learning curve getting used to the visability when backing up and Changing lanes but now that I'm used to it I'm more comfortable. Just find that this car might be more difficult to drive for a new driver or more inexperienced drivers.

Underappreciated luxury

Even at 8 years old, my Limited feels like a 5 series! Flawless shifting, ample power, great leather, cockpit feel, automatic rear screen shade! Perfection!

Great comfortable vehicle for thr money

We have owned out 2012 Ford Taurus Limited for about a month. When we were shopping for a vehicle to replace our 2004 Toyota Avalon, we wanted a comfortable vehicle with a V6 and some upgraded amenities. The Taurus stood out in the car lot for its exterior styling. It was even more impressive when we drove it both on the highway and on city streets. Our vehicle is very well outfitted with many standard features. One of the options I enjoy a lot is the paddle shifter. This allows for ease of use on country roads where there are hills and curves. This allows for complete control of the vehicle. The interior is well laid out and easy to use and operate. I am convinced that we made a very good choice.

Nice Ride

It is the nicest car I've ever owned. I've had newer vehicles but not this luxurious. It is spacious as well. I am enjoying the moon roof and after market stereo.

Great sleeper car

I own the SHO model taurus. Awesome performance with 365 HP, twin turbo, very comfortable, smooth ride. Can be hard to find that trim package and the price stays a little high for the Sho.
