Nov 16 '04 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 2.0 Recommended: No 

Pros: A lot of thunder for the buck
Cons: Serious mechanical defects take this one out of the running
The Bottom Line: -

I’ve had many cars through the years. Included in the line-up was a 1994 Ford Thunderbird LX. I bought this car used towards the end of 1996 and was rid of it by the end of 1998. I had many problems with this vehicle but still wax nostalgic ...

A great all around car

by lxstasy302
Aug 11 '05 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: styling, gas mileage, quick (V-8)
Cons: FORD transmissions, brakes
The Bottom Line: I reccomend this car to anyone who wants a reliable car that is quick when you need it and has a few dollars for repairs depending on driving habits

History: I bought my 1994 Thunderbird V-8 from a guy who claimed to be the original owner. A carfax report later found that he was not and that my car was a rental car for Hertz in Virginia. That scared me a bit when I first got it because I know what ...

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 1.0 Recommended: No 

Pros: Cheap compared to a new car, looks nice
Cons: BEWARE head gasket problems - Stay away from this car!
The Bottom Line: Run, don't walk away from anyone trying to sell this car to you regardless of apparent condition or mileage!

Here's everything I have nice to say about this car:

I purchased my 1994 Thunderbird from a Seattle car dealership 6 months ago. It was in impeccable condition and had 38,000 miles on it. The previous owners were a retired couple who had...

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Nice styling, roomy trunk, comfortable seats
Cons: Predictable defects, various manufacturer flaws

Don't let the title fool you, this is a very good car overall. It does have it's quirks.

I first purchased the '94 Thunderbird back in 1997. I didn't get the V8 model due to overall insurance costs, but I do like the style of this vehicle....

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Powerful, handles well, very nice luxury features.
Cons: Torque converter shutter, gas mileage

I'll start this off by saying my previous car was a 1993 Ford Tempo. It had been driven very hard and purchased for $900. As you could imagine, it would be hard for ANY vehicle to compare to that jewel. I found one quite by accident.

The worst car I have ever loved

by alastor_
Oct 18 '03 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 3.0 Recommended: No 

Pros: The absolute best ergonomics of any car I have ever driven, Excellent ride quality.
Cons: Numerous MAJOR mechanical failures on 3.8L V6 Model: Head Gasket, Transmission, Brakes.
The Bottom Line: If you have the 3.8L V6, dump it! If you are considering buying it, DON'T!!

Let me start by saying the first time I laid eyes on this car I fell in love with it. The exterior styling was sharp yet not outlandish. The interior was, in my opinion absolutely perfect. I could not imagine the controls being any easier to reach or more ...

Jun 05 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Smooth V8 engine and handles great
Cons: Not the best car to drive in the snow

I bought my 94 T-Bird back in 1995 it had 22,000 miles on it! The reason we bought the car was I like the looks and the way the car performed and my wife loves the interior and the power the car has when she sticks her foot into the V8 engine! I also...

Practically perfect in every way

by tomahawktommy
May 08 '03 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: LX 4.6-V8 best choice. Excellent handling superb comfort; luxurious roomy interior
Cons: low-end torque; 215X15 tires;
The Bottom Line: Final answer: get this car with the V8 or SuperCoupe. You'll be glad you own a MN-12 chassis T-Bird!

The car: 1994 LX 4.6V8 has 110,000 miles. The car is practically perfect in every way.

V8 powerplant gives this car the verve it needs to move its 3600lb chassis. The car rides wonderfully! Leather seats are luxurious. All controls are right...

Good Mix of Power/Handling/Economy

by raper1
Jun 28 '01 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Decent sized, great power with V8, handles well, large trunk
Cons: Sucks gas, plastic stuff breaks, transmission typical Ford junk
The Bottom Line: Definitely consider it if you want a powerful American car but have the transmission checked out first.

I've owned a '94 Tbird LX with V8 for over five years now. Bought it used with 24,000 miles on it. It now has 125,000 miles. I didn't go out shopping for a Ford but the light metallic green body color, the dark green interior and the sporty looks...

1994 Thunderbird LX V-6

by dpowell74
Jun 02 '03 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Great interior, comfort, mileage, very well designed.
Cons: Classic Ford "shuddering" transmission, replace brakes like oil changes.
The Bottom Line: Best car I have ever owned, at 145,000 miles, except for the chronic shuddering transmission problems and constant replacement of brakes.

I purchased my 1994 Thunderbird LX with 20,000 miles and it was as brand new. Today I am selling the car with 145,000 miles on it. So, you may say I am intimately involved with all aspects of the 1994 Thunderbird. I've spent most of my life working on...

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Great handeling, comfortable seats
Cons: *in the actual opinion*

A friend of mine recently made the purchase of a 1994 Ford Thunderbird and it is well worth the price. It has many great features, and not many faults, but I will name what I can.

FEATURES:

- Leather seats

A beauty with Elbow Room

by Jiggers
Sep 07 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Nice looking, powerful/fast, inexpensive insurance
Cons: Not a lot of space in the back seat

I needed a car with a lot of space. When I went to purchase a used car, I wasn't looking for style, or color...I just wanted to fit comfortably behind the wheel, and have someone be able to sit behind me. I couldn't believe how much room I had left...
