Up for sale is a 1986 Thunderbird Turbo coupe. I believe it spent most of its life in Texas. It has no rust on the body and is beautiful underneath of it. The body mouldings look great not curled up. No rust by the back window where they held water at. I believe its original paint except for the 87-88 turbo coupe hood. I haven't found any paint lines and the color has a brown cast to it like my 88 Ranger with original paint looks. Usually repainted its a much darker black. Theres a couple very small dings and a couple touch up paint dobs. Original interior in very good shape. Fully loaded cruise controll, tilt wheel, air conditioning, cassette tape player power windows and locks that all work great. Slight fade on the outsides of the front seats none anywhere else. Stock radio with cassette tape player and speakers. This car hasn't been heavily modified or hacked up its a nice collector. Original unused spare tire looks amazing. The motor is mostly stock. Has uprades from 87-88 intercooler, computer, bigger VAM. Also has a nice header not a manifold. It has a full exhaust with magnaflow mufflers and and a converter it should pass emissions I don't have that here. The car gets 25+ mpg on the highway and descent in town if you stay out of the turbo. I drove it to the Grand Rod Run in Tennessee last year and it did great. Drives like new! This has to be the best riding fox chassis car they made. Soft but firm great cruising car. The rims are Saleen SC 17x9 front 17x10 on the back. They give it a really nice look. This is a really nice car been garaged and taken care of its whole life. The equivalent of a GT Mustang. Better built I think and much rarer. I think this is one of the nicest T-birds made. one of the smallest Thunderbirds that they made. It has nicer body lines than 87-88 and this has all 87-88's goodies. Also the nicer dash and instrument cluster came in the 85-88. I think the value may jump on these turbo coupes if Ford heads in the turbo four cylinder direction. The car has just under 98,000 miles. Which equals just over 3,000 miles per year. I put around 5,000 miles in the 3-4 years I have had it. The car is well worth the price. Its an extremely nice car. 27 years old its a survivor you can call me with any questions at 765-977-0091. I may deal a little but the price is pretty firm you need to see this car in person. Drive this car home or you can pay to have it shipped. Thanks for looking!

Car and Driver 10Best list cracked by Tesla Model S, BMW 3 Series left off
Fri, Nov 21 2014Car and Driver is keeping new blood pumping into its annual 10Best cars list with three new entries making it on for 2015 and a perennial favorite falling off. Among the biggest shocks this year is that the BMW 3 Series and 4 Series are no longer named, despite years of some portion of that lineup earning a mention. In another surprise, the Tesla Model S (specifically in S 60 trim to fit under the $80,000 cost cap) makes it to the 2015 roster and is the only electrically motivated member of the group. Despite the loss of the 3 Series, BMW isn't entirely shut out this year, because the M235i gets its name on the list. Car and Driver argues that the little coupe feels like a welcome throwback to the E46 chassis M3 of the early 2000s. In addition to the Model S, the final newbie to the annual group is the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. The inclusion of these new members knocks the Audi A6/A7 family and Ford Fiesta ST out from the 2014 rundown. The other seven models carry over from last year, including the Cadillac CTS, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Honda Accord, Mazda3, Mazda6, Porsche Boxster/Cayman and Volkswagen Golf/GTI. The 2015 10Best cars list certainly seems to have something for everyone from the hot hatch fan to the family man and even the green car driver, thanks to the addition of the Tesla. Head over to Car and Driver to read its detailed explanations for each vehicle's inclusion, but if you've got a difference of opinion or just really like the list, let us know in Comments.

Saleen previews new 302 Mustang
Thu, 03 Jul 2014The introduction of a new generation of a model like the Ford Mustang may be exciting enough in its own right for enthusiasts, but that's just the tip of the proverbial iceberg, because you know that Ford itself as well as numerous aftermarket tuners will soon follow up with even more desirable versions. And few Mustang tuners carry quite the same clout of Saleen.
Recently reunited after its previous split, Saleen is back on the map and hard at work on new aftermarket modifications for a wide array of muscle cars. We knew it would only be a matter of time before it would release a new 302 Mustang, and now it's sent out the first image to show us what to expect.
Details are scarce, but House that Steve Built says the 2015 Saleen 302 Mustang "is perfectly positioned as the next American exotic." And it should know, considering that it's the same outfit that produced the Saleen S7 that really was a true American exotic. From the teaser image above we can see that Saleen has given its Mustang a new front air dam, a very wide air scoop on the hood and of course Saleen's trademark slat grille.
Ford bumped by Amazon in best-perceived brand list
Mon, 20 Jan 2014Back in July, a mid-year study from YouGov found Ford to have higher brand perception than any other company in the US. While Ford failed to top the year-end study, it still has plenty to brag about. The final BrandIndex report shows that online retail giant Amazon edged out Ford for the top ranking, while Subway, the History Channel and Lowe's rounded out the top five spots.
For Ford, it's still an improvement from sixth place in the 2012 study, and, more importantly, it dominated other automakers in terms of brand perception with a clear advantage over Toyota, Honda, Chevy and Volkswagen. To determine how well - or not so well - a brand is perceived, YouGov uses a Buzz score that asks respondents whether they've "heard anything about the brand in the last two weeks, through advertising, news or word of mouth" and whether it was positive or negative. While it isn't clear how many respondents were included, YouGov does point out that Ford had a strong presence in social media, advertising and newsworthy toward the end of the year.
