Super coupe or turbo coupe would be a great add. The supercharged or turbocharged 3.8 v6 or the 5.0 and 4.6 v8. This car would make a great addition to forza with its big cult following. I believe it would also bring in some new players.

The Turbo Coupe was a 2.3L turbo 4-cylinder from the previous generation Thunderbird based on the Fox chassis. The Super Coupe with the 3.8L supercharged V6 was from this MN12 generation.

Yes please, let’s see both in a Forza game! A 5-speed manual from any year would be great.

Just any model of it would do and all of them

I’d take this only if it was the Supercoupe. I don’t care which year 89-95. The 89 Supercoupe was Motor Trend magazine’s car of the year.

Currently have 3 MN12 cars (SC, Tbird 5.0 HO, XR7) I have collected in the past couple years. A show room (besides some sun fade) 93 Super Coupe been my pride and joy for over 2 years. Love the car. Have very detailed pictures of every possible angle. just disappointed I have never been able to even see it in a game past PS1. Personally id like to see the 89-93 pre face lift done, I never cared for the bubble birds and the interior is similar to the mustang in the game.

Not my favorite car but I like this one in the movie Jade (1995)

It looks pretty cool with the tinted windows and louvres!

This ford would be a great for forza to race in and drive from point A- B and has a different customizations you can put on a like a bodykit for example and different exhaust tips with the smoke coming out. It would be nice to see instead seeing focus, fiestas, and mustangs all the time.

This car should have been in the retro update or in the next game.

This is my 1992 Thunderbird SC … I love this car so much. Even though it has given me nothing but hassles since owning it.

I would love to see the 1989 SC be featured because it was a car that was ahead of it’s time and cut short by ford corporate BS. Instead of congratulating the team on releasing a car to rave views the ford execs decided to criticize them for their failures. Sadly the MN12 went stagnate after launch and never saw improvements year to year for performance or weight until the aero birds in 1994 which saw a bump up in power. The aero birds IMO are ugly as sin and i already am not a fan of the SC styling.for 89-93, it’s bland nothing really stands out. It isn’t until you drive the car that you go, Oh okay I get it now.

I really really want to see this car in the game, then i can build it out like i want to to IRL.
