Awesome! Is the SHO AWD? If Ford doesn't install the 400hp Coyote 5.0L in the CVPI's in 2012, that hopped up V6 Taurus should make for an excellent police vehicle.

EDIT: I have heard nothing official that the Coyote 5.0L will be going into the CVPI's, but I wouldn't mind starting an internet rumor in the hopes that Ford hears it and decides not to kill the Vic's after 2011.

Nice, I like it. There's one like it at the Ford dealer here in town....or it least it was there this past weekend.

I've been seeing quite a few of the SHO's at the office for a few weeks now. Great looking car! Looking forward to a chance to drive in, or actually drive, one.

With Chevy coming out with the new Caprice police car and a new Charger due out very soon I don't see how Ford can abondon the police car market and let the Vic die. I doubt they'd put the new 5.0 in it, but it would be cool if they did. If they would bring the Vic back to retail sales, put in the new 5.0and a new interior design I still think there is a market for a high-performance, rear-drive, full-size car like a Crown Vic. The Maruader was a weak attempt, too bad they probably won't try again.
