What if it's a strengthened version of Panther, complete with Falcon spec
IRS and Virtual Pivot, Coyote 6.2 and heavy duty transmission? Plausible? Since Ford Aus is getting plenty of interntaional projects, it's only reasonable to expect they cold get involved with this in some way....
Taurus wouldn't be popular, Chevy got some FWD Impalas out there, but CV is the quintessential cop car. With all the good decisions Ford are making, maybe they'll maintain the same formula.
Also bear in mind the Taurus might have AWD grip( geared towards understeer) but wouldn't be nearly nimble enough for duties, does the article allude to an existing model?
