Default Which car

I have a 90 sc tbird right now with close to a grand in mods that I picked up thats a 5 speed car. Threw a rod into the oil pan, needs a rebuild. A friend of mine is selling a pretty mint 88 mark7 with a sunroof and a motor with less then 30,000 on the rebuild. Which would you guys keep and why?

I'd keep the Lincoln, Chris, if for no other reason 'cause you're bigger than the T-Bird.

I'm probably the only one that will say keep the sc. SC's do have a lot of problems and you never stop working on them; but they are fun cars to drive when they run right. If you're looking for something easy and cheap to modify and be reliable then SC is not for you.

Keep the super coupe. Much more rare car and more fun to drive.
