About a year ago, Saab got 500,000 eyeballs on its 9-3 Convertible using an online game <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/03/21/report-saab-usa-networks-snag-500-000-to-play-burn-notice-on/">tied to the show "Burn Notice"</a>. <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/ford">Ford</a> is now doing the online game dance with the USA Network - the very same channel that aired "Burn Notice" - this time based on its new show "White Collar." The vehicle of choice: the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/taurus">Taurus</a>.<br />
<br />
You'll be using that Taurus - which is actually black, not red - to chase The White Shadow, the evilest white collar criminal around. And you'll need a suite of Ford features to do it: SYNC, SecuriCode, Collision Warning and Adaptive Cruise Control, among others. The game will take seven weeks to solve, so you'll be spending a lot of time in your sedan, but every week five winners will get a White Collar "gentlemen's bag," and the grand prize winner will get a new Ford Taurus. That one will probably will be red.<br />
