So, we can cross SHO/Taurus off the coming-to-Oz list. The SHO would be included in Ford Performance 12 vehicles.
GT
Shelby GT350/R
Raptor
Focus RS
Taurus SHO
7 to go by 2020, and only one of the above coming to Oz. What will they be.

Bare in mind these are old conceptual drawings so there's a lot of conjecture. The real thing is as shown in the earlier pics posted.

Under the hood, the new Ford Taurus gets the new twin-turbo 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 engine, with an as-yet-unspecified power rating. The new Taurus will be built at the recently opened Changan Ford Hangzhou Plant in China, following a $760 million investment. Ford’s sixth plant in the country, the Hangzhou facility has a maximum annual capacity of 250,000 vehicles on a flexible production line.

if this gets made in RHD, and parallel imports get allowed, its not beyond the realms of possibility to own one of these if you desire. i would much prefer this over Mondeo, as i'm not that keen on the hatch back look of the mondeo.
That is a very very nice looking car, not sure about the front on view, but I prefer that over Mondeo.

If its RHD then Lincoln is a possiblity also, but i doubt it will be this time around.
Ask the question. would it sell in UK and/or Japan ?
Do the numbers....
