19!!! Actually I've seen pretty much people over 60 and people under 25 driving marks around RI, as a matter of fact does anyone live in RI w/ a silver gen 1 who saw me on 95 north thursday night? Young white guy, I wanted to race whoever you are!

x2, kinda, 20 now, bought the car when I was 19, had a Thunderbird before.

Posted by: greenlinc

Wow, im starting to feel a bit old with all these 20 year olds, im 33, and I remember the year i graduated High School (92) us here in Detroit were already seeing these cars driving around (test cars), and I wanted one ever since. A couple years ago I had my heart set on a fox body 5.0 mustang, but the prices for an unmolested nice car were a bit high. Then I remembered HMM what about those mark VIII's and I was surprised by the prices, and grabbed one!

56 here. "Married" into the car, which my wife bought new in 1993. Initially did not care for the car at all, due to the driving impression on it. (I am used to German and Japanese cars and do some racing, so "light and tight" was much more in my vocabulary than an American cruiser). But the initial impression was based on a platform that was still working on the original air bag suspension and the car wallowed and porpoised, the tranny was shifting like it had straight cut gears and no clutch, which jerked like a dyspeptic mule on shifts, and the motor was worn down, upper control arms worn, motor mounts practically nonexistent, etc. But the interior and exterior were pristine. She had it detailed twice a year and kept it garaged. After doing some research and reflection, decided to rebuild/upgrade the car rather than dump it, and could not be more pleased with that decision. The car really delivers now.
