I was wondering your opinion on cars with the best acoustics, or that easily lends itself to comp SQ. I believe that Thunderbirds used to be good(90-97.

There is no such thing as a "best" car. I would say that an older buick, the T Bird, a Legend, etc would all be good starting points.

Heck, Mark E's new car is 100% hand built... \:\)

mid 90's buicks look very friendly to an install. also the impalas look conducive as well. if i were to buy a car just for that, those would be the first ones i looked at.

I would imagine it depends on what you think the 'best' way to position drivers is (dash, kicks, etc) and how you're going to use them.

I'd say anything with a deep dash and plenty of space in the floor area would be a good place to start.

flat dash, actually shallow dashes seem to be better from what i heard.

but you're right, it depends on the application.
