What's in our Car Town garage today?

2012 Ford Taurus SHO

One of America's favorite "sleeper" cars, the Taurus SHO, returned on the sixth-generation model. Although it may have the attitude of a true sleeper car but the SHO is all about combining its sporty character with luxury amenities, making it more of a marathon runner in an executive suit. Power comes from the award-winning 3.5L EcoBoost V6 turbo engine that delivers the power output of a V8 car with a fuel economy of a midsize sedan.

2011 Land Rover Defender 110

Conquering off-road conditions since 1983, the Defender is the hallmark of Land Rover's commitment for off-road ready vehicles that are truly "Made in United Kingdom". Even though it hasn't change for almost three decades, the Defender still has the same "British Bulldog" spirit.

1992 Dodge Viper RT/10

The Viper project began in 1989 when the crew behind the car tested their Viper prototype on the roads and then debuted in 1991 with two prototypes served as pace cars for the Indy 500. When it went on sale in 1992 as the RT/10 Roadster, the Viper story begins here. The engine that powers it was an 8.0L V10 engine, the biggest for a production car, producing 400HP of power and connected to a 6-speed manual gearbox.
