And you're getting more options and features with the G. The Taurus is a great car- but while it may be cheaper, it's still a Ford. Not even in the same ballpark as the G, and Ford doesn't say it is.

Mar 6, 2012 - wow these people are idiots. the G series is a compact car--its puny and lightweight. the taurus is full-size, and therefore much heavier. id take the taurus anyway. more room and comfort.

ambientflier Says:

Mar 9, 2012 - Um, a compact car is a civic. A G37 is not compact.

fatty1443 Says:

Mar 10, 2012 - there is a difference between a luxury compact and a regular compact. my bad, a more popular term is "entry-level" vehicle, of which a g37 is. in other words, comparable to the bmw 3 series, the audi a4, and the lexus is. taurus, or rather the upscale model, the mks, is more comparable to the infiniti M, nissan maxima, chrysler 300,toyota avalon, and the lexus Gs.

ambientflier Says:

Mar 11, 2012 - G37 is bigger than a 3-series or the lexus is. It's actually in between the 3 and the 5, and you can put real people in the back seats, unlike the other two cars. It's bigger than you think.

Mar 13, 2012 - This is about as fair as comparing a 335i to a Lexus LS.

chezbut Says:

Mar 13, 2012 - Or, comparing a BMW 335i to a Chrysler 300.

Mar 21, 2012 - No surprise here?!! The Infiniti is more refined, much faster, lighter and more nimble than the big heavy Taxi.....a much better car in every respect.

Percy C Says:

Mar 27, 2012 - Bull shit, I know you have not driven both like I have so shut the fuck up if you have no Idea WTF your talking about and why in the hell do you compare a full sized AWD mid line car to a midsize 2WD luxury car ?? that has to be the dumbest comparison ever oh yeah the 2013 SHO is 0-60 in 5.0 sec :D

Apr 2, 2012 - Taurus is better. My cousin has a Infiniti and it did not stand the test of time with his kids. His interior is torn up and his kids are only 3 how much trouble can they make. Not to Mention it's horrible when it comes to reliability

Apr 6, 2012 - 6 secs actually but i agree shos better :D

xozzy18x Says:

Apr 10, 2012 - Nissan is one of the better manufacturers out there from a reliability standpoint. Not sure what issues your cousin is having.

Apr 13, 2012 - thank you for showing your are just a ignorant schmuck

e30pimp222 Says:

Apr 23, 2012 - @xozzy18x it's a very beautiful car on the outside but on the inside it's a different story the leather is nothing more then a small thin sweater over a pretty plush but cheap looking material. The problems where more electrical then mechanical. The computer on the car went out on his trip to Mexico and the dealer fixed it because it still had a warranty but they wanted to charge him but he got past that. And ever since then it will mark check engine even after it is cleared. Any advice

May 5, 2012 - I'd buy the Ford.

airtouch01 Says:

May 12, 2012 - The ford Taurus SHO is pretty disappointing.. For a 3.5L V6 with Twin-turbocharged.. The Japs with their normal V6's do over 300HP.. Camry V6 does 0-60mph in 5.8 sec..

steve smith Says:

May 13, 2012 - its the weight of the car... the 2010 sho beat the 4.2 l audi a6...now the 3.0 turbo a6 has a slight edge... i myself have a 2011 se camry v6 with k/n intake and borla exhaust ...with good tires considering its FWD i can probabaly hit 60 in 5.4 and quarter mile in 13.8... its a nice ride

SuperSnake330CID Says:

May 19, 2012 - yea once you buy a boost controller and add boost to those turboes it will easily hit 450 hp and rape any import

jkheslekrants Says:

May 19, 2012 - This is fairly disappointing. We had a 2008 Grand Prix GXP that had 303hp 323tq 5.3 FWD only 4 speed auto with LONG gear ratios and I managed a 13.8 in the 1/4 and I was drivin like shit. Only got 4 passes but I know with time a 13.5 was easily achievable with more runs down track. Side note freeway crusing we averaged 28-30mpg. GM win. Ford and Infinity Fail

axlplayer14 Says:

May 23, 2012 - not in a camry...

steve smith Says:

May 23, 2012 - stock with no mods and stock tires his 60 in 5.8 and quarter mile in 14.0 flat at 100mph. source :car and driver

ahelingerbmw1 Says:

May 24, 2012 - That Infiniti does some mean things to my hormones!

CHUUMPASS Says:

May 28, 2012 - for some reason this comparo seems a bit odd. maybe ILV staged it for a Nissan check ?i'm sure you can get the '09 SHO faster up to 60 from a dead stop than the here "achieved" 5.8 s
