Wow, 5 speed to boot.  Would probably be a good one to buy and hold on to.  Someday these cars will be collectible.

2 days left and it's above $12K. I think it's worth every penny of that.

I've noticed over the past year or so of watching ebay auctions that Turbo Coupes and 5.0 cars are going up in price. The good condition ones are usually going for over $8K. The Cougars and V6 T-birds not so much. I've seen several V6 T-birds with less than 50,000 miles fail to break the $4K barrier.

I think this is the same one that was going for 22k a little while back. Didn't the guy turn down a $19.5k offer when the buy it now was $20k?

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

It's gone. There is no listing for what it sold for.

Darn, I know an ebay guy, maybe I can figure it out for you, if it sold through ebay that is.

It's funny how it's an 80's car but almost blends right in with the mustang and fusion near it. imo

I'm just curious as to how much it sold for. I'm guessing it has to be one of the most expensive purchases of a Fox T-bird since they were new.
