I'm assuming you mean the older thunderbirds with the 4.6L V8. If that's the case I like those cars, my uncle had one and it was really nice and pretty fast. Now if you are talking the new generation thunderbird, it's got the 3.9L V8. They are also fast. My uncle trader his thunderbird in for a lincoln ls with the same engine and it was fast
