Ahh, Matt, you have discovered our secret !
That is the Ford Performance Vehicles GT-P (Pursuit) or as we like to call them, a "Ute". I guess it is a mini version of a F-series as they were never released in Oz untill this year.... I belive it comes with the 5.4 litre engine in it ??? Here is a photo of a real one.....

John, we had the Taurus for a year before it was dropped and we just got the Focus and F-series this year. The 2002 Mustang was released for 6 months and then dropped too

Oh, I dunno.... I like some of the SHO Taurus's... and a '96 with the 3.0 isn't too bad
