The reason my mom quit driving hers was oil getting past the seals and turning to smoke at idle. It got to the point where it would cloud an intersection when the engine was cold. Other than that the thing ran fine. Its been parked since 2008.

This probably wont help your decision, but my mom daily drove a 911 SC from 1987-2004 and put 180,000 reliable miles on it. Personally, I'm a Ford guy (I have a Mustang and a Thunderbird) but I'd have a hard time turning down a 911 SC.

Torque.

I'm just about 40 years too late lol

How were the Thunderbird Turbo Coupe and Cougar XR7 terrible cars? They were 0-60 in the mid-7s range with a 4cyl in a mid to full size car. The chassis was shared significantly with the Mustang but the longer wheelbase afforded a better ride. The suspension was electronically adjusting with shocks made by Tokico.

Now where can I find a family like that?

Will there be an MN12 post? Please be an MN12 post!

Id have it over an E30, yeah I went there.

Woodstocks is awesome, they put the sauce in the crust...

Independent rear suspension with rear wheel drive. Supercharged V6, 4.6L or 5.0L V8...

Whats wrong with a 10th gen T-bird?

Earl Dibbles Jr? Is that you?

I was going to order them until I found out they are flat and painted rather than stamped. I may as well buy a matching set and do a Year of Manufacture deal.

Ford Thunderbird! Awesome.

I wager that in reality the MN12 might be able to outrun the Mercedes on a road like that.

Now that we have pictures back we can have an MN12 thread!

I was about to post my '89 as an example! Great looking 35th anniversary car, that's my favorite MN12.

I don't really see McConaughey being connected much with FWD Lincolns.

I actually sell GM parts and accessories for a living and unfortunately thats not how it works. Generally all of the accessories come out at launch and only have minor things added later, like these stripe kits. Besides, I think the chrome is part of the headlight housing. :\

They look so much better with the body color surrounds

Well its funny though, Hondas were known for the tight handling they got from using (you guessed it) SLA double wishbone suspensions until the early 2000s when they switched to a MacPherson design. The Miata uses double wishbones too.
