1995 Ford Thunderbird LX review from North America
"The best"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front brake rotors had to be replaced.
Have a shimmy and shake at 30-45mph while the transmission shifts.
Driver's window slow to lower at times.
Other than that, no problems.
General comments?
Note: my wife bought this car after driving my Turbo Coupe, when she got ready for a new Taurus I sold my Explorer Sport and kept the bird for myself. So this car has been in the family for several years..
I love Thunderbirds and have owned several along with Mustangs. Thunderbirds are a grownups Mustang. They ride well, handle well, and really run with the 4.6. I wish Ford would have kept the Bird until the new one is out. I plan to always have a Bird of some kind. I have my eye on a nice 88 Turbo Coupe.
