Even Ten Years Later They Remain My Favorite Vehicle — Despite being out of production for over ten years the 91-97 Thunderbirds remain a favortie of mine for the comfort and style they offered. having owned a 91 and a 95 I have never had any mechanical problems and despite a devestating accident in one myself and my wife were left uninjured. A good starting vehicle for a young driver today.

V-8. Smooth ride and decent handling

Cons

No legs in winter and slides bad in snow

Wortt Buying. But Check It Out Maintainence Is Key — V-8. That is all I have to say. 260 stock Horsepower. Multi Port Sequencial FGuel In jection. Handling would be better with sispension modificvations. Needs a better rtear end or upgrades to the current one. Transmissions is good for factory buto ebuild with a shift kit and minor upgrades would make it outstanding.Smooth ride

Love It. — What I dislike about the car is the lack of space when your trying to work on the engine, install spark plugs, spark plug cables. You got to take off the air systems completely, then take off the alternator just so you can even begin to take off the spark plug cables. Accelerates fine. Would be better if the car had 3.27 or 3.55 gear ratio in the rear-end, or like police cars have a 3.73 in it.

1995 Ford Thunderbird 90s Classic — This is a good looking ride, good performance, acceleration and handling. Have had some problems with transmission slipping, poor on gas milage but you don't buy a car like this for gas milage. had the car since new, with 75,000 miles on it.

It Was Fast! — This car looked great, it had a great take off, and handled great. The suspension needed some work and it needed a freezeplug replaced. I loved the a/c and how you could set it The seats were very comfortable, too. I loved the v-8!

It's V-8 engine was pretty powerful.

Cons

Stay Away! — My first and hopefully last experience with a Ford was NOT a good one. Terrible gas mileage, interior pieces were breaking pretty regularly, and the transmission was already showing signs of early retirement at only 55, 000 miles. Just awful.

The Most Comfortable Car I've Driven. — I was driving the Thunderbird when it was pretty new, so there wasn't anything wrong with it. I liked the performance of the V8 engine and the sleek styling and extremely comfortable ride. The trunk was a bit low for large items, but that wasn't a big problem.
