What is the Ford Taurus's resale value?
| Model Year | Current Avg. Price | Year-Over-Year Change |
|---|---|---|
| 2018 | $12,093 | −12.59% |

Most model years in this set are moving lower year over year, which can work in your favor if you're shopping used. One model year is essentially flat, while two are moving higher, so the pattern is mixed rather than uniform. The biggest changes are the double-digit drops, which stand out clearly in the table.
The 2016 model year is holding steady, with prices close to flat year-over-year.
The 2014, 2016, and 2015 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

I would say although it’s a good price but it’s a car that has bad reputation for bad coolant systems so I’m weary of that.

The Ford Taurus SHO is a great car and was Exactly what I was looking for.

Reviewed a 1989 Ford Taurus on Sep 17, 2008
Keep in mind, this was an SHO. Considered one of the first true American sport sedans. The 1989 was not encumbered by ABS, Airbags, and the like, so it was capable (according to Hot Rod) 0-60 in as little as 6.0 seconds. Not bad for a 3.0 normally aspirated V6. Engine specs were a Ford/Yamaha designed, Yamaha built, 3.0 litre 24-valve V6 that put out 220HP and 200lb./ft. or torque. It was a peaky engine, with most of its power coming on after the secondary intake valves opened at 3800 rpm. Still, with a rev limited 7600 rpm redline, you could reach freeway speeds in 2nd gear. Low end torque was boosted by the unequal length intakes. At low rpms, only one intake was open. It was fed through a long, thin manifold pipe the originated over the opposite cylinder bank. At 3800 rpm, a butterfly valve would open on the second intake, fed by a fat, short manifold pipe, originating over its own cylinder bank. The effect was fast moving air with some back pressure at low rpms, large volumes at high rpms. This had all of the bells and whistles that Ford offered in a car, at the time; automatic air, JBL audio with subwoofer, 6 way adjustable leather front seats, etc. There were a few quirks, being a first year model. The original clutch was too small, so the dealer replaced it with a one inch wider unit. The Goodyear Eagle GT plus 4 tires only lasted about 20,000 miles. But it was a blast to drive. It also had a tendency to break the front motor mount, if you drove it too hard. A/C compressors did not last long. An underdrive pulley is recommended if you want it to live. My best estimate was that I could get between 6.5 and 7.0 0-60's. I did not want to launch it at 3000 rpm, or I could have broken into the low 6's. The original Taurus was a decent handling car for a pedestrian sedan. The SHO took advantage of a solid base and added front and rear anti-roll bars, progressive rate springs, lowered the car one inch, four wheel disc brakes, and used silicon or solid bushings. The result was a car that had nice neutral handling. Push it to the edge and the tail would gently slide out. A little throttle and it would straighten out. It never got out of hand. Torque steer was apparent, but minimized by equal length half shafts. Despite the performance, the SHO regularly delivered 25 mpg in mixed freeway commuting. Avoiding rush hour could probably improve that. Plus, the SHO was the first American car certified as a low emission vehicle. As a result, it did not require many of the power robbing emission controls other engines were saddled with. It had been a fun car to drive, and it was always nice to launch past BMW's and other sport sedans in this "wolf in sheep's clothing". But, alas, after nearly 20 years, the old SHO is tired. The A/C compressor is once again dead, the front oil seal is leaking on the catalytic converter, the O2 sensors are shot, and yes, I broke the front motor mount. Plus, I think the fuel pump is about to seize up. It is now resting comfortably in the driveway, having given way to a commuter econo-box, while I sit and ponder its fate. Perhaps the old wolf will rise again, don its sheep costume, and go up against the youngsters. Maybe this time with a 315HP upgrade.

Why it stands out
The 2015 Ford Taurus stands out as a roomy full-size sedan with a long-running nameplate and a clear split between comfort-oriented versions and the performance-focused SHO. By this point in the sixth generation, Ford had already given the Taurus a refreshed look, updated suspension, and newer Sync and MyFordTouch infotainment software, while the cabin improvements and available safety technology helped it feel more modern than its basic reputation might suggest. The Taurus Limited could be equipped with features such as blind-spot warning with cross traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, and collision warning with brake support, which gave the car a more upscale edge than many buyers might expect from a mainstream sedan.
For 2015, the Taurus also offered a practical range of powertrains. The standard 3.5-liter V6 was rated at 288 horsepower in this era, while the available 2.0-liter turbocharged EcoBoost four-cylinder delivered the best fuel economy of any Taurus at the time, with EPA ratings of 22 mpg city, 31 mpg highway, and 25 mpg combined. Buyers drawn to stronger performance could still choose the Taurus SHO, which used a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 with 365 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque and sent power to all four wheels. That combination made the SHO the most powerful and quickest Taurus SHO in the model’s history, though the broader Taurus lineup was still described as pedestrian compared with some rivals.
