I like them for many reason...most of all because they are a good car for all age groups. I am 18, and would rather not have some old-lady car, but T-birds can be driven by grandmas also. These car look badass stock, but can be tricked out also. I didn't ever think about having a t-bird until I actually bought one..now I don't know how I ever lived without it.

Re: What do you like most about the T-bird?

I'm also eighteen and love Tbirds because for one the ones with v8s are sleepers and can do alright for themselves in a race also its not a car in everhyones garage like the mustang so the more you do to your tbird the more it stands

Re: What do you like most about the T-bird?

heh, sorry but you went a little far with that bird. Dont you think 3mm is a little TOO close to the ground? Is this a show car? Those pics make me want to sell my t-bird, cuz now i shudder everytime i look at it and think that someone actually riced a bird out like that, heh. You have people lay in the trunk to watch the screens or do people crowd around your car to watch like on the Fast and the Furious, lol

BTW, no offense, I am sure you worked hard to get it how you like it, but wouldnt it be less shameful if it was a civic?

Re: What do you like most about the T-bird?

4ssn4s1n I just ordered a hood just like that for my bird and was wondering if you could tell me the size of the front inlets and the cowl induction if you don't mind also how did you fiber glass the trunk like that it looks great I tried a little with fiber glass and never could do what I wanted with it. And that Tbird puts all civics to shame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: What do you like most about the T-bird?

it has a v8, independent rear suspension, didn't cost any more than the mustang, but is about 1/3 the cost to insure as compared to a mustang gt. that last one made my decision easy.

Re: What do you like most about the T-bird?

the t-bird is from a classic lineage, the 89-97 birds were "renaissanced" and alluded much to the 64-66 'flair birds' (of which i have a 65). I originally wanted the 88 turbo 5.0 my neighbor had (which he sold) but once we saw the 94 we got and saw the cues it took from my 65, it was a done deal. Thats what I like most.

oh yeah, the V8, that's a key ingredient also : )
