Ive kinda always wanted an 89-90 xr7 5sp or 94-95 sc 5sp pretty much for the rarity. What sucks is that last year the junkyard 4 or 5 miles down the road got a 5sp xr7. It had over 230k miles on it though, I figure at least it was well driven and not sent to the junker with blown headgaskets at 70k miles.

There were only around 3,000 5sp xr7's and about 1,300 94-95 5sp sc's made.
93 Festiva L, 193k miles, BP+T/G25MR swap, T3 50trim .48/.42, SRT FMIC, Capri electronics/Rocketchip, 2.5" exhaust
bests: ET 12.86, MPH 110.25, 1.92 short
02 Subaru Impreza WRX, 129k miles
97 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport, 236k miles

I still wish I would have bought my 94' back from my ex. It had it all, 4.6, ground effects, fog lights, auto temp, auto lights, roof, and keyless. Car drove and handled just like a mustang, except for the weight, and the ground effects really helped the cars look. It was a MUCH BETTER car than the 94' convertible GT I had once. I think our foxes are much better looking cars, but the performance of my 94' was so much nicer. I will own one again, so I hope the price stays low on used ones for awhile. :D    And the ABS brakes where incredible. Thing stopped on ice better than most cars on dry pavement

I wouldn't mind getting one, though the t-birds are better looking than the cougars. There are a couple sitting in a local car lot. One cougar, one t-bird. Think I might check them out later today.

I don't care what people say about the wing... I can't believe that is the same car!

I love the wing, and one day it will sit higher than the roof line which is what I wanted originaly. here's a link at Eric's site for a little bit of history on the car.

There seems to be allot of Ohio people on here. Maybe we could start a Spring or Fall CatJam get together somewhere near Mayhem around columbus in the future. Just a one day thing kinda like what Mayhem has been doing. But that's for another thread.

I know allot of people aren't to crazy about the MN12's, but after owning my 94' I would own one again if I could. I was actually looking to replace my mach1 with a 94-97 cougar, but couldn't find what i wanted at the time and then realized I needed a truck.....and a trailer. Now i have a truck and access to a trailer, so in a few years I'll hunt me up one the MN12's again. It has to have the skirt (wat i call ground effects), sunroof, traction control (of course) and the 4.6.

I believe all 95 cats were XR-7's, and aside from the SC model I think all '95 Birds were LX's...

Edit: Actually, I might be the wrong one. It does look like the T-Bird side was all LXs, starting in 1993 (aside from the SC option - last year being 1995). I guess even having quite a bit of experience with them still leaves a large door open to learning. :sorry:

I know for sure that all 94's were XR7's and am pretty sure that continued through 97'. It also looks that way from eric's site. From 93' - 97'.

I know that is 96 and 97 you could get a "sport" package with bigger rims and breaks and over all better suspention stuff but it was still labled as a LX. Which realy confuses the hell out of me why they did that.
