1995 Ford Thunderbird LX from North America - Comments

So far the only thing which stands out is that anywhere between 40-50 miles per hour, the car starts to shake, but if you go 1 mile per hour faster it comes out of it.

I am a sixteen year old boy. I love to race this car. I recently beat a 5.0 Mustang GT. I sadly recently lost to a Dodge Viper RT/10 (who wouldn't). I've put racing seats and pedals on my car to make it a little eater looking, but overall its tight as all hell. To my knowledge the car has 330 hp out of the factory, but due to minor altifications I ave gotten it's hp to 428. This car handel's like a dream. It drives fast (my max was about... 150 I believe) and can turn on a dime. It's perfect for going to the movies, or for racing against poor unsuspecting souls. Overall this has got to be one of the best cars on the road, plus you don't see as many of these as you do Mustangs so i'ts like a one-of-a-kind.

Not even close to 330 hp. More like 220hp. 150mph?? My Mark VIII wouldn't do that and it had 280hp.

Sorry little guy the 1995 t-bird 4.6 V8 only comes with 205hp the 3.8 has 140-145 and the 3.8 super coupe has 255hp.

I don't believe your claim of 428 hp, but for the sake of argument tell us what "minor" modifications you've done to reach such an astonishing number of ponies. I'm also assuming you replaced the chip with an aftermarket unit, because the governor cuts power at around 105.

Boy, you are waaayyy off the mark here... sorry to burst your delusional bubble! I own a 95 4.6L T-Bird and have done pretty extensive mods to the motor (chip, cat-back system, smaller pulleys, injectors, etc.) and am now pulling about 260 horses... (stock it is 205 h.p)...

I can hang in with a new Mustang G.T. but have been beaten by a couple Z-28's, and as for your top speed, it is limited to 105 mph stock... I have a chip that gets rid of the limiter and topped out (drag limited) at approximately 132 mph... am thinking of adding a Vortech supercharger and getting about 360 hp... that's about all you can muster from this setup...

Just curious, but does anyone know how to get rid of the limiter? I put a 456 gear in it and well it sux when your car says you're going 105 when you're only going 70. So if anyone can help e-mail me at crystalvector1@yahoo.com if ya remember title with something about the car. Thanks guys I appreciate it.

Wow, that's a lot of horse power dude,what did you do. Well any way I am 22 years and my mom gave me her 1995 T-Bird with the V8 4.6L when I was a junior in high school and I still have it. My T-Bird has 212,300 miles on it to date and beside from needing a new heater core and new shocks/ struts, the car runs and drives great. When I got it from my mom in 2002 it had about 72,000 miles on it right after she got her new Lexus RX300. I took very good care of it which is how I have gotten so many miles out of it, not to mention it still looks very good for a 12 year old car. The leather seats are in good condition as well as the paint job. At the end of my freshmen year of college I got another car, a 2001 Intrepid ES 3.2L V6 which now has about 59,000 miles and it had 39,000 miles when I bought it, well my parents bought it for me. You can tell which one I drive the most due to the miles on both. I love both my cars, but have always found myself attached more to my T-Bird, maybe because it was my first car. The Intrepid is very nice to with leather and moon roof, and all the extra things, but I still seem to drive the T-Bird more. Now I am thinking I might trade in the Intrepid for a BMW X5. Of course I would never and could never give my T-Bird up. Since my heater core went out about a month and a half ago I have been in my intrepid, I will be getting the heater core fixed next week which will cost me about 900 dollars, it seems to be a lot of work to do it by taking out the dash. Along with that I will get a new set of shocks and Struts and the T-Bird will be all set and ready to go once again.
