    I would say that looks pretty nice. It seems well taken care of. Maybe prices are higher here but I would say that is a good deal if the engine runs good still with 101K on it.

    Looks like a good deal to me, as far as I can see its pretty clean, kinda rare in a old t-bird.

    That is a nice, clean car. As others have said, appears to be well cared for... and it is local to you. Easy enough to check out in person.

    Super clean. Seems like a good deal if the car is as clean/nice as the photos!

    i have a 1988 turbo coupe. they are a hoot to drive. surprises a lot of road roaches at the stop lights. however that being said the special parts for a turbo coupe are just like trying to find special parts for my svo. if you cant find a 87/88 dont forget that ford made turbo coupes starting in 1983.

    Go ahead and get one, it is all I can say. I have owned one for 13 years and still love it. It made me loving 2,3 T cars so much that had to buy second one, 84 SVO, last year. Very comfortable car to drive too, totally different than noisy SVO. I feel that getting special parts to TC is easier and cheaper than to SVO, they made whole lot more of those. But for sure getting harder every day when cars get older. Check out and spend few hours at turbotbird.com if haven't done it yet. Tons of info and very nice crowd of people there.
