1995 Ford Thunderbird Super Coupe
For consignment, we offer this nearly perfect, very low mileage, (35,189 original miles), car that is from a good year of the Thunderbird design. In fact, the Thunderbird was redesigned for the 1993 model year, while continuing on the MN-12 chassis and each year just kept getting better. This is the final year for the Super Coupe, a real competitor for the Euro sport coupe and sedan market, making an unheard of 230hp from the supercharged V6. This was more ponies than the 4.6 Liter V8 that was available this year. A 2 owner, purchased by our consignor from the original owner in 2020, this aero styled and always garage kept MN-12 bird is ready to compete with the best of the era from BMW, Mercedes, and Audi. This car looks, drives, and smells like it just rolled off the lot back in 1995 and it's...well...super!
Exterior
Presenting like it was just dipped in deep dark black, the only thing to break up this calm sea is a thin red pinstripe band that runs around the car at the beltline. This pristine exterior paint shows very little wear or faults and the only chrome on this car are the badges. The window surrounds and sporty mirrors are all finished in a mix of gloss and satin black. This nicely executed MN-12 design has integrated headlights, a Super Coupe specific front neoprene front bumper, and lower fascia with deeply inset fog lights. Moving to the sides we note long slightly contoured sides along with optional factory black rub strips and flared outward rocker moldings. A sloping rear greenhouse glass leads down to the short for this era of car truck lid and below hovers the wrap-around integrated tail lights and very muscular rear bumper cover with Thunderbird SC embossing. 16-inch saw blade style aluminum wheels are seen on all 4 corners and are wrapped in like new deeply treaded blackwall rubber. This is a stunning 35,189 mile car exterior-wise and it is hard to find fault!
Interior
Perfectly aged and well cared for Mocha leather covers the exaggerated bolsters and inserts for the front buckets. The driver's seat is fully power actuated with adjustable lumbar and bolsters and the passengers seat, while manually moved has the same power lumbar and bolster adjustability. This pattern repeats on the long clean rear bench which appears to never have been sat in. One needs to look very closely to see any wear or faults in the leather although there is slight normal age wrinkling. The very same holds true for the carpeting which is flooding the floor and presents very Mocha and very clean. A black topped console speeds up the center between the buckets and houses a glovebox, the ashtray, the automatic shifter, and toggles for suspension modes and fog lights. Moving forward and upward we note the climate controls, a message center, traction control, and then the factory AM/FM/Cassette stereo. The gauge cluster, which is all analog, displays all the necessary functions of engine operation and resides in the driver's bump out of the dash. Exterior lighting and the heater vents sit within the black insert and behind an original very nicely preserved leather wrapped steering wheel. The headliner is nice and tight and shows near perfect and the door panels are near showroom and house the power locks, power windows, and power mirror controls for the doors.
Drivetrain
Sitting proudly in the engine bay, and not to be outshined by the exterior and interior, the 3.8 Liter supercharged V6 capable of generating 230hp and is fed by EFI. This potent 6 is backed up by a Ford 4R70W 4-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. A Ford independent rear axle with 3.31 gears is waaaay back there throwing power to the rear wheels.
Undercarriage
To sum it up in a few words, I'll use well cared for with slight surface rust on the usual suspects. Nary a hint of structural issues are to be seen. The chassis is supported by independent suspension front and rear with a combination of Macpherson struts in the front and coil springs in the rear. Power disc brakes are seen on the corners and the factory installed dual to single to dual exhaust is on for spent fossil removal.
Drive-Ability
The car started right up, idled smoothly, and ticked like a Swiss watch on the power end with smooth acceleration and just as smooth ride. Much more refined than the prior Fox platform cars, but with more power than the Mustang of this year and with much more comfort. A great performer with all options working as they should and the leather and body hugging bolsters has a way of growing on you.
Sitting in this car is like going back in time, and one can definitely still whiff the new car smell in this low mileage, very well kept, very nice example of the 1995 supercharged Bird. Loaded with conveniences this is a cool bird, driven somewhat sparingly and well maintained, this 1995 car has plenty of flight time left in her!
