07 6spd.

Spent 4-5 hours washing / waxing my mother in law's T-Bird yesterday......how did Ford survive all these years? Pretty-Crap.
I seem to have those "chats" weekly with someone. I dont mind. At least they're interested.

I'm assuming it was the current/latest model T-Bird? I actually always sorta liked them. I feel about the T-Bird the same way I feel about the old BMW Z3. Overall not bad cars, (very good in some aspects) but both seem like an unorganized assembly of half-assed retro influences that didnt really add up to a cohesive package.

It always seemed crazy that you spent a decent chunk of $$$ on the T-Bird and all you got inside was a Lincoln LS dash and door panels with body-colored plastic inserts.
