Ford Taurus SHO
When the 1989 Ford Taurus SHO hit the market, it was one of the most underrated cars of all time. From the outward appearance, it didn’t look like anything other than a run-of-the-mill Taurus. But that’s where the trickery comes into play because Ford designed the SHO to be a sleeper car. The turbocharged engine provided drivers with a satisfying amount of power (via Car & Driver).
The car also had some enhancements on the outside of it, which helped to make the car a bit more unique. Performance sedans weren’t that common in the 1980s so the SHO had a unique position in the market. The car was unique at a time when Ford was pivoting from the weak performance era of the 1970s. Everything about the car was unique and rare, which helped bolster its reputation.
