I know the original is beautiful, and I love it. But as a daily driver, I found the 58 to be far more comfortable. I vote for the Square Bird.

My favorite T-Bird oscillates between the '55 and the '57 and always has. I know that the four-seater increased sales for Ford and kept the marque going. I think it would have been the time honored competition of the Corvette for all these years had Ford left it a two-seater.

Fifty-Seven for the win.

They should have kept them small. I voted 57.

I agree with JK about the 1958 ride but the only Thunderbirds that I truly love are the iconic two seaters, in this case the 1957. Love the colour especially of this one.
