Fast...... ehh not so much, BUT quick off the line.

BUT you have to remember in 1989, 165HP and 220tq was VERY impressive, as Ferd'* 3.8 only made 140hp at that time.

Fords 3.8 only made 140 in the 95 Taurus we had and when you floored it it felt like all of a Geos three cylinders had more power. Then they claimed it was for towing but as soon as it had a load the trans couldnt handle it.
