Ford had a lot of unique cars, and the T-Bird is about as unique as they come. The styling of the car differentiated it from just about everything else on the market. Picking one of these out from a crowd wasn’t hard to do, which is why it was in the movie. Things like a five-speed manual transmission and a lightweight chassis contributed to its performance (via Hemmings).
