1992 Ford Thunderbird Super Coupe: A New Sport Joins the Line

This record's own dek states plainly that the Super Coupe carried on at 210 hp for 1992 alongside a new 5.0 V-8 Sport model; this record's own overview repeats that the 1992 catalog lists the Super Coupe with the 3.8 supercharged, intercooled V-6, sequential multiple-port EFI, 210 hp and 8.2:1 compression, a five-speed manual overdrive, automatic ride control, Traction-Lok, four-wheel disc brakes with ABS, and 16 by 7.0-inch cast aluminum wheels with P225/60 performance tires, while the new Thunderbird Sport paired the 5.0 HO EFI V-8 with the automatic overdrive.

This record's own overview also states that Wikipedia's tenth-generation production table gives 74,149 Thunderbirds of all series for 1992, while the Thunderbird infoway compilation lists 4,212 Super Coupes, 1,256 of them with the five-speed manual; this record's own production section carries all five of those figures as separate rows, adding a fourth engine row for 57,119 naturally aspirated Thunderbirds and a fifth for 12,562 Thunderbirds with the 5.0 V-8.^1,2

This record's own production notes again state that the infoway rows come from one enthusiast compilation crediting Ford media material rather than a named document, that the five-speed figure is a subset of the Super Coupe row, and that none of these rows are reconciled against the Wikipedia/Tast whole-line total or added together in this record. Every one of the five production rows carries this same caveat rather than only the Super Coupe figures.²

This record's own engines section carries three separate entries: the 210-horsepower supercharged 3.8 available on the Super Coupe, the 5.0-liter HO EFI V-8 standard on the new Sport and optional on Standard and LX trims with an empty ratings array, and the naturally aspirated 3.8 at 140 hp standard on the regular Thunderbird trim; this record's own transmissions section carries the five-speed manual standard on the Super Coupe and an automatic overdrive optional on it as part of Preferred Equipment Package 157A, its own name explicitly tying that automatic to the supercharged 3.8.

This record's own options section carries that same 157A package by code and name, with no price given and no list of what it bundles beyond the code itself; this record's own paint table carries 5 colours for the Super Coupe: Oxford White, Bright Red Clearcoat, Twilight Blue Clearcoat Metallic, Black Clearcoat and Silver Clearcoat Metallic, all sourced to the same catalog Colors and Trims page rather than to Automotive Mileposts.

This record's own prices section is empty, and a separate priceNotes field explains why rather than leaving the gap silent: a J.D. Power live-valuation figure once stood in its place before being pulled from every page on the site as of September 24, 2026, with no replacement source found yet. This record's own keyFacts, interiors, specifications, performance, identification, conflicts and unpublished-leads sections are all empty for the year, leaving overview, production, priceNotes, engines, transmissions, options and paint as this record's own sources for 1992. No wheelbase, length, width, height or curb weight figure appears anywhere in this record for the year, a gap this record's own specifications section leaves entirely unfilled.¹
