The car Had 115,000 miles at the time (which is incredibly low miles for these cars) but was showing signs of it being tired. From normal wear, the interior which was once a nice dark blue faded to a greenish teal color and the original 1980's clear coat started to flake. The Auto Ride control sadly was Taken out By the owner before my godfather for reasons quite not known. The car had boost valve that allowed 15 psi in all gears, a Full stainless cat back exhaust that went to a Y-pipe and fed through two Glass Pack mufflers that sound incredibly throaty for a 4 Cylinder other than that, the car was pretty stock. I bought it for $1500 from my god father who took beautiful care of it. It's a 5 Speed Manual Car in Twilight Blue with a blue Valor Interior. This is Stella shortly after I purchased her. Well there's some background on the car itself, now here's the story of the build so far. It also had 4 wheel disc brakes with ABS. It featured automatic ride control which firmed the shocks up when the car stopped quickly, boost reached over 10 Psi, or was cornering at high speeds. The Turbo Coupe was a pretty advanced car for it's day too. Ford rated these cars at 180hp for the manual cars and 150hp for the automatics.
It shares the same power plant with the 1984-1986 Mustang SVO, A 2.3 Liter SOHC Turbocharged Inline 4 Cylinder, except has a few different things like a larger intercooler and a different turbocharger. These cars were pretty quick for their day, so quick that they needed to be tuned down so they weren't faster than the Mustang. That's a bad way to start.This is my 1988 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe or Stella, and this is how she looks currently. Ick.Speaking of the Italian connection, the workers who assemble the Dodge next to the Tonale aren't happy about doing so. SCE to AUX I just don't see it Dodge will be shocked at how poorly this thing does, as well as the Tonale.Too small, too expensive, Italian (unreliable) roots, unrefined, and many better competitors.SCE to AUX Kia's styling has gone off the rails, East Palestine-style.But I like the grass in that photo.Spookiness The styling of these reminds me of a modern Citroen DS or maybe even what a modem Tatra might look like.There will be groups and individuals who don't like his suggestions:'no problems in my department''that change costs money''that change costs jobs''we've used that supplier for years''I'll miss my bonus objective if I do that'Ford needs to stop talking about Henry and the F-Series.Speaking of the F-Series, 26% of the F-150s within 200 miles of me are 2022 or older.
