my tbird was a one owner before me who drove it on I4 to and from work 4 days a week.
It had about 95000 miles on it when i got it and he has EVERY RECIEPT ever for that car.
He did all tasteful mods and never pounded the car.
Hell he even kept the stock TBird rims(which are for sale now if n e one is interested)
I know most of you guys dont believe any of this, but thats alright.
Thats the thing i like about tbirds, everyone assumes they are slow, and for the most part they are, but if you take care of them, dont do cheap stupid modifications, and dont abuse them then they are awesome ass cars.
Oh, and 00siboy, i get around 10 mpg, so youre not the only one!
