Of course, I can stare at my Cougar all day, I like the way it looks and I passed over many T-Birds to find my particular car.

As you have found out, there are a few, very few [Image: rolleyes.gif] others around here that like them too.

I like your car Brent. My Brother had an 86 Black & gray Turbo Cougar & I loved it. The roof line is the same for that era like the Toranado, Riverera & Eldorado - which looked great in the early 80's. Someday I'll get one... but not anytime soon.

Thanks. [Image: smile.gif]

I agree, the roofline is much more in tune with the 80's styling than it is with today's. And probably for that reason the T-Birds sloping backlight area has more appeal to most people as it has a less "dated" design.

For me it was one of the cars I lusted after when I was in high school and I was fortunate enough to find a very nice used 5-speed XR-7 in the color that I wanted a couple of years after I graduated. It's been with me ever since.

White couga. HMMMMM All I would need is a wide brim hat with a feather and the Hos in the back seat to shut up long enough so I can drop em off on their corner so they can make me my $$. That ride is PIMP. I'll stick with my TC any day. lol
