1991 Ford Thunderbird LX 2dr Coupe
When I found my t-bird, it was owned
by an ironworker who did not know
what he had. It was a 1991
thunderbird sport, and he sold it to
me for 1,200 dollars in cash. I
bought it when I was 16 and have
never had any problems with it. The
gas economy is a bit poor, but that is
due to a H.O. 302 stuffed under the
hood from ford. I am very pleased
with every feature of … this car,
expecially the horsepower and
acceleration! If you ever have the
chance to buy a t-bird, DO IT!!!!

Unreliable but Fun to Drive
TbirdSC, 10/29/2003
1991 Ford Thunderbird SC 2dr Coupe
I ordered the my T-bird SC new. So far
it's been the most enjoyable car I've
driven. It has a unique blend of
performance and comfort. The vehicle is
roomy and rides well. It handles like a
much smaller car. It's a cross between
a luxury car and muscle car.
Unfortuantely I've had numerous
problems with the vehicle from the very
first week. This resulted in an …
alarming 90+ service invoices over
10yrs for problems outside of regular
maintenance. The vehicle remains a very
enjoyable and fun car to drive.
Although the reliability has left me
with a somewhat tarnished image of this
product.

Birds Fly!

1990 Ford Thunderbird SC 2dr Coupe
I bought this car on my birthday, and the five speed is awesome. I have killed many a Mustang in this car. It was very advanced for its age, and well thought out! Some people complain about the head gaskets. I would rather replace those than the whole engine block! Moonroof, cd player, power everything, ke, auto belts, very smooth ride and turning!
