...I always had a soft spot for the dearly departed Thunderbird but, maybe it's time I take off the rose tinted glasses. I mean, only piffling 150 horses? 0 - 60 in around 10? Damn.

Still voted, though.... call me a sentimental fool. I don't care one bit.
 
I have a soft spot for these, especially the Turbo Coupe, 190hp was not bad for a turbo 4 in 1987. Sadly the 225 hp 5.0L H.O. V8 was reserved for the Mustang and Lincoln Mark VII. These can be fun project cars as they share many components with the Mustang which still has incredible aftermarket support.
