I have a 93 3.8L with 161,000 miles on it. I bought it in 96 with 6000 miles on it.

I did the head gasket at 110,000, water pump, thermostat, radiator, belt, control arm, steering box. The paint looks like new, I wax it 3 times a year. Now it needs tires for the second time and I don't know if I should stick any more money into the car.

I really do like this car. It looks like a new car, and I get a lot of comments from from people who can't believe it's a 93. When you are driving it, it feels like a real car.

I have 3 other newer cars, but this is my favorite; my wife thinks I am crazy.

I have a 93 XR7 and I love it, but recently the engine revs up by itself when I am driving. At first I thought transmission, but I don't feel it kick down a gear. It's as if someone is simply giving it more gas. Thoughts?

I have a 1993 3.8L Thunderbird. 292,000 KM and never replaced a head gasket, bought it at about 160,000 km and always changed oil every 3000 Km. Car still works amazing but is sitting because won't pass inspection due to rust underneath. Might have to clean it up a bit and patch some holes and get the rest of life out of that engine. Love this car to death.
