2010 BMW X5 M

The most hp to an SUV was 550, the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S, which had 550. BMW answered to that by making the BMW X5/6 M. This article is about the more practical one, the X5 M. Pumping out 555 horsepower, I wouldn't be surprised if it-or even more likely the X6 M-can go 180 mph! And we're talking a 5,082 pound truck (6,405 if it's completely filled up). MPG is unknown, I wouldn't be surprised if it's an extremely low total (for the fuel economy supporters, you could always get the 2010 X5/6 hybrid), but this baby is pure and performance. And BMW is primarily a luxury company, so it's always nice to see their sports cars. If you want it, you need quite a bit of loot, because it costs $86,255.

Ford Taurus SHO

After being cut from the Taurus lineup 11 years back, Ford has revived the Taurus SHO. Can a full size sedan by Ford, a company known to have only standard styles for their affordable cars, SHO us 365 horses? Of course they can! Ford SHOs us how to make a 350+ horsepower automobile with 21 combined mpg (25 highway) while keeping minimal safety and reliability problems. The final muscle sedan we're reviewing is guaranteed to put on a SHO! And for an inexpensive price of $37,160.
