Default SHO with Tune. Not bad 12.75@108

Sounds like pretty good times from a new 4 door Ford with a tune. Saw this discussed on another site.

Very nice. 60ft time is good too. AWD helps there.
That car is 1k lbs heavier than my vette and just as fast!

Go Ford!

The tune would be cranked up boost I expect. The nice thing about twin turbos. And yeah the AWD really helps. With that and that a/t a chimp could run excellent times.

Once my current DD rolls over and dies I will look at a used one of these (go Ford depreciation!). I did check one out at the dealer and the exterior is not that hot but the interior was gorgeous and I like their toys.

Why do all the new models I like: Shelby, Camaro, SHO, and CTS V all weigh two tons? All the extra airbags? These cars would be incredible if they could just trim 500lbs.

Not too shabby!!! Yeah used they might be worth looking into, the sticker price for a new one is outrageous though!
