Well the 84 is basically the same as the anniversary addition 83 just a reverse in color and stuff "for the most part" the black on silver. Anyway it comes stock with 180 HP & 245ft-lbs of torque coming from a Rocket 307. My dad was talking about dropping a bigger engine in it but we'll see. Ours was one of 4 in Germany and the only one with all leather interior and t-tops, the others were hard-tops. There were only an 3500 at most made which is an estimate. I want to do a lot with the car but we'll see. I thought it had more than 180hp but thats all she's got right now stock, however, my dad did have it goin 150mph on the autobahn with a little left in her but I guess my mom freaked so he slowed down. He babied it most of the time though which is good. Engine is still a baby with only 55k. Got to work on it though. A car that large with only 180hp hit 150mph? Thats crazy... It took me a lil room to hit 150mph in my old ws6 when it was stock... 1997 Contour GL V6
