The Ford 500, launched in 2005 and produced through 2007, was a full-size sedan positioned by Ford as a premium offering, aiming to compete with established players like the Chrysler 300 and the Toyota Avalon. It was a significant departure from its predecessor, the Ford Taurus, boasting a larger, more luxurious interior and a more refined exterior design. The 500 utilized a familiar front-wheel drive layout, sharing its platform with the Ford Freestyle and the Mercury Montego. With its spacious cabin, comfortable ride, and a range of available powertrains, the Ford 500 catered to drivers seeking a blend of comfort, practicality, and a touch of luxury.

The 500 offered a choice of two engine options: a 3.0-liter Duratec V6 generating 203 horsepower and 207 lb-ft of torque, or a more powerful 4.2-liter Duratec V6 producing 240 horsepower and 271 lb-ft of torque. Both engines were paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. Although praised for its accommodating interior and comfortable ride, the Ford 500 faced criticism for its lackluster handling and somewhat sluggish performance. Despite its ambitious goals, the 500 failed to achieve commercial success, falling short of its intended position in the market. It was discontinued in 2007 after a relatively short production run, paving the way for the Ford Taurus to reclaim its spot as the brand's flagship full-size sedan.
