"Not a bad car, But do yourself a favor and get the V8 version"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Car just would not stay aligned!

Probably do to the lowering. Numerous $$$ in suspension repair.

Replaced both Cats at 160k at a cost of $300 for the two installed so called "High Flow Cats"

Fuel line broke sometime not too longer after that due to the cars low proximity to a speed bump. Only cost $1 for more fuel line.

Head gasket blew at 177k

Sold it right after for a mere $800.

General comments?

Good Looking car! Low, Sleek, very streamline.

With just a little bit of modification it was unique.

Performace was ample considering the weight of the vehicle in conjunction with the moderatley powered 3.8 V6.

Confort was a plus although the interior was very basic even for 1989.

Handled extremely well. Combination of the Zenon body kit, wide tires and heavy curb weight.

I have an 89 Thunderbird with a 3.8 too, and I would love to try out a super coupe with a supercharged V8. But don't sleep on the V6, it still hauls some ass.
