wow, one of 500 speeds 88 TC made, need to buy this obviously

Wow, only 500 5 speed TC is 1988....... i wish i had one. What a moron....... these guys pull this stuff out of their ass?


Here is the real numbers:

Model Year    T-Birds Produced    TC's Produced    TC% of Total

1988 147,243    37,252    25.3%


85% of those were 5 speeds, the Auto cars are way less common

I texted that I was very interested in the car if he could verify his statistics.  That was 12 hours ago, still waiting for a reply.

Got a text reply to my question of "where did you get your info and stats"?

Here is the reply.....WARNING, do not read with while drinking beverages.


Well come to find out after calls and calls to different places. .I found out since its a family sport sedan 5 speeds weren't very popular..so the turbo coupes ran for three yrs then they went to supercharged. .but in every year the dealer told me they only made 500 5 speeds due to popularity reasons
