1989 Ford Thunderbird Coupe review from North America
"Reliable, economical,sporty,family coupe"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Alternator.
Water pump.
Rear shocks.
General comments?
Steering is responsive, making the car nimble on the road.
3.8 V6 is powerful, yet easy on fuel
All the power you need in a everyday driver.
The interior is well planned out and controls are simple and easy to reach.
However the interior looks cheap and not up to snuff for what the car was meant to be.
