Offered for sale is this exceptionally well-preserved 1989 Ford Thunderbird Super Coupe (SC), a remarkable one-owner example showing just 24,100 original miles since new. Finished in classic Black over a Titanium Gray leather and vinyl interior, this highly original Super Coupe has been carefully maintained, garage-kept, and preserved in outstanding condition throughout its life.
Purchased new in 1989, this Thunderbird has remained with its original owner for more than 37 years. The car has always been garaged and has never been driven during winter months when snow or road salt was present. As a result, it remains in remarkably original, near-new condition, retaining its factory paint, original tires, original exhaust system, and many other factory-installed components.
The exterior paint presents beautifully, with only a few minor stone chips and water marks consistent with the vehicle's age and careful preservation.
Adding significantly to its desirability is the extensive collection of original documentation and accessories accompanying the vehicle, including its original Ford window sticker, dealer order/build sheet, owner's manuals, original documentation packet, sales brochure, 1998 Road Test Magazine, service records, original factory radio, and protective two- piece nose bra.
The original window sticker documents an MSRP of $22,549, including factory options, destination and delivery, and the applicable equipment package discount.
Named the 1989 Motor Trend Car of the Year, the Thunderbird Super Coupe was one of Ford's most sophisticated performance automobiles of its era, combining supercharged performance, advanced suspension technology, impressive luxury equipment, and distinctive aerodynamic styling.
This particular example is even more desirable thanks to its factory 5-speed manual overdrive transmission, making it a true enthusiast's Thunderbird.
Under the hood is Ford's original 3.8-liter EFI intercooled supercharged V6 engine, factory-rated at 210 horsepower and paired with a desirable 5-speed manual overdrive transmission.
The Super Coupe's supercharged engine delivers strong low-end torque, smooth highway acceleration, and an unmistakable driving experience that helped establish the SC as one of the most advanced American personal luxury performance coupes of its time.
The engine compartment retains its largely factory-original appearance, reflecting the exceptionally low mileage and careful ownership history.

One of the most impressive aspects of this Thunderbird is its extraordinary preservation.
Having remained with the same owner since 1989, the car has accumulated only 24,100 miles over its lifetime and has benefited from careful storage and seasonal use.

The 1989 Ford Thunderbird Super Coupe was part of the Thunderbird lineup recognized as Motor Trend's 1989 Car of the Year.
At its introduction, the redesigned Thunderbird represented an important advancement for Ford, incorporating sophisticated independent suspension, electronically controlled ride technology, four-wheel disc brakes, refined aerodynamics, and modern luxury equipment.
The Super Coupe elevated the Thunderbird's performance credentials with its intercooled supercharged V6, sport-tuned suspension, and available manual transmission.
Unlike many traditional American luxury coupes of the period, the Thunderbird SC offered a distinctly European-inspired balance of handling, comfort, and performance.
Today, the Super Coupe has developed a dedicated enthusiast following, with exceptionally original, low-mileage, manual-transmission examples becoming increasingly difficult to locate.
