1993 Ford Thunderbird Super Coupe: The Whole Line Wears Its Face

This record's own dek states plainly that all Thunderbirds took the Super Coupe front fascia for 1993 while Super Coupe volume kept falling; this record's own overview repeats that Wikipedia's tenth-generation production table gives 130,750 Thunderbirds of all series for 1993, while the Thunderbird infoway compilation separately lists 3,891 Super Coupes, 1,038 of them with the five-speed manual, and this record's own coverage field is marked partial rather than complete for the year.^1,2

This record's own overview also states that Wikipedia says all 1993 Thunderbirds used the Super Coupe front fascia and that the V-8 Sport model was dropped for the year; it also records a 1,500-car Davey Allison limited edition in white or black honoring the NASCAR driver who died in July 1993, without tying that edition to the Super Coupe specifically or naming which engine it used.¹

This record's own production section carries six separate rows: the 130,750 whole-line total, 3,891 Super Coupes, the 1,038-unit five-speed subset of that Super Coupe row, 106,234 non-Super-Coupe Thunderbirds with the naturally aspirated 3.8, 19,587 Thunderbirds with the 5.0 V-8, and 1,500 Davey Allison editions; the Davey Allison row carries its own note stating plainly that it is not a Super Coupe count, keeping the memorial edition's figure apart from the Super Coupe production rows around it.^2,1

This record's own production notes again state plainly 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 the infoway rows are reconciled against the Wikipedia/Tast whole-line total or added together in this record. That caveat leaves the Davey Allison edition's count, sourced to Wikipedia rather than infoway, as the one row in this record not covered by it.²

This record's own engines section carries two entries: the 3.8-liter supercharged, intercooled V-6 rated at 210 hp and 315 lb-ft available on the Super Coupe, with its own standard field stating plainly that the rating basis is not stated by the source, and the 5.0-liter HO V-8 as an LX option, rated from Ford's 1993 brochure at 200 hp at 4,000 rpm and 275 lb-ft at 3,000 rpm, SAE net; this record's own prices section is empty, and a separate priceNotes field explains that 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, over the same independent-verification concerns described elsewhere in this record.¹

This record's own keyFacts, transmissions, performance, identification, conflicts and unpublished-leads sections are empty for the year. No wheelbase, colour or trim detail is recorded for the Davey Allison edition beyond the white-or-black choice named in the overview, and the 1993 brochure described below does not mention that edition at all. This record's own title identifies the car as the "1993 Ford Thunderbird Super Coupe," naming the Super Coupe trim directly rather than the memorial edition or the dropped Sport model.¹

This record's own options, paint, interiors and specifications sections come from Ford's 1993 Thunderbird brochure (form 033-Ann. 8/92), which covers two models, the Thunderbird LX and the Super Coupe, and prints no prices or dimensions. Its Power page gives the 5.0 liter HO V-8 200 horsepower (SAE net) at 4,000 rpm and 275 lb-ft at 3,000 rpm, and puts the Super Coupe's supercharged, intercooled 3.8 at 210 horsepower (SAE net) at 4,000 rpm and 315 lb-ft at 2,600 rpm; its standard-features list gives the LX's 3.8 V-6 140 horsepower. Those figures sit in the specifications section, and the V-8 also has its own entry in the engines section, sourced to the brochure; the Super Coupe entry keeps its Wikipedia rating.

This record's own options section carries thirty entries from the brochure's options table, keyed to Preferred Equipment Packages 155A for the LX and 157A for the Super Coupe and marked included, standard or optional for each, from a Ford JBL audio system and compact disc player to the 5.0 liter HO V-8, offered on the LX only with automatic overdrive. The paint section lists eleven exterior colors, ten for the LX and five for the Super Coupe with four shared, each with its interior trim pairings; the interiors section lists the five trim colors, Mocha on the LX only, and each model's standard seats. No paint or trim codes are printed.
