Super Coupe 3.8l - One Owner -- One Of 722 Built on 2040-cars
Rock Hill, South Carolina, United States
|
DESCRIPTION
In 1994, Ford produced 2,647 of the Thunderbird Super Coupe Model; this car is one of only 722 built with a manual transmission. I bought the car new on April 7, 1994, it was the first car I bought with my own money and I have been the only owner of the car for the last 20 years. I have the original window sticker for the car, the FACTORY shop manuals and all maintenance records for any work that has ever been done to it. Although it has almost 160,000 miles on it, this car still drives as well as it did when I bought it 20 years ago. All of the
scheduled maintenance has been performed as required. No major components have had to be replaced
although several upgrades and additions have been made as described in the
Performance and Other Upgrades sections. I also have all the original parts for anything that was upgraded (e.g. original main crank pulley, original stereo system). There are some know issues with the car which I have described. Most of these items are cosmetic in nature and are not completely unexpected for a car of this age. Overall the interior is in great shape and would only need some minor reconditioning. The exterior is in fair shape and a paint job would bring it back to showroom condition. It is time for me to pass it along to another enthusiast who can enjoy all it has to offer. I will be glad to answer any questions you may have about the vehicle.

Next SVT Mustang may axe Shelby name, go naturally aspirated
Mon, 10 Jun 2013Following our first glimpse at the 2015 Ford Mustang out on the road, the fine folks at Road and Track have divulged some details on what the Blue Oval's next pony might have in store. We've already seen that the car will get some very sleek, Evos-inspired design cues, and an independent rear suspension is indeed in store. These new details, however, concern the muscle car's beating heart.
For starters, the base Ford coupe is expected to carry on with V6 power, likely from the same 3.7-liter unit found in today's car. From there, R&T says the next step up will be a four-cylinder EcoBoost engine, likely displacing 2.3 liters, putting out as much as 350 horsepower. Of course, a Mustang wouldn't be a Mustang without V8 thrust, and R&T states that the 5.0-liter Coyote V8 will continue on into the 2015 car, making something like 450 horsepower.
But it's at the high end of the Mustang range where things will, reportedly, get very, very interesting. Road & Track claims that the top-shelf 'Stang will likely lose the supercharger from its engine, producing a metric crap-ton of naturally aspirated grunt instead. Additionally, the SVT-fettled Mustang will likely be dropping its Shelby moniker, in favor of "a name you're familiar with," according to the magazine (you know, like, Cobra).
Has the 2015 Ford Mustang gained hundreds of pounds?
Sun, 01 Jun 2014Automakers face competing interests when it comes to developing a new generation of vehicle. On the one hand, companies want to build their cars to be safer and better handling, with more equipment and maybe even larger dimensions over the model it's replacing. On the other hand, they strive to keep weight down to the benefit of both performance and fuel consumption. Usually something has to give, and in the case of the new 2015 Ford Mustang, those efforts may have resulted in a weight penalty of two or three hundred pounds.
This according to Blue Oval modifier Steeda Autosports, which states that "the 2015 Mustang ended up gaining 200-300 pounds in this remake". Despite the Mustang not being on the market yet, it would appear the leading Ford aftermarketer has been given early access to the 2015 model to help jumpstart its tuning efforts (a rather common development among trusted tuners). If Steeda's assertion is accurate, that would make the challenge of getting the new pony car up to speed for both Ford and aftermarket customizers like Steeda that much greater.
We're waiting for official word from Ford on the veracity of Steeda's claim, but if true, it's bound to be a bit of disappointing news for legions of Blue Oval performance enthusiasts. Watch this space for more.
