The Taurus a Lemon?

As almost everyone knows by now, Ford unveiled it's new racing mounty, the 1998 Taurus. Now, my question is, are they going to reshape the street model? The car they unveiled looks nothing like a taurus, and, personally, I think it'd be pretty damn scary to drive that car around Daytona at 200 MPH, because it's nowhere near the aerodynamic bullett that the T-Bird is. So, what will happen? Personally, I'm considering moving to Pontiac next year......

Brandon I agree.. The Taurus unveiled looks like a Monte carlo clone. Nothing compared to the street Model. My friends own a taurus and there is NO resemblence

Saw the "Taurus" NASCAR entry in Gasoline Alley at the Brickyard last weekend (I'll have scanned pix in a few days if anyone's interested). While it doesn't exactly look like a Monte Carlo, it IS a pretty humorous-looking Taurus. The "rear door" lines end up in about the middle of the rear wheel-well, and outline a "door" that your average Munchkin would have difficulty squeezing into. Cool rollout paint job, though...
