The Garnet Garnet color combination was the poster car for all the promotions introducing this model midway through the 1961 model year.In 1961 the Starfire was introduced to combat the new 1961 Thunderbird. Using the 88 platform and trim from the 98 model this amazing car was created and only 7 600 were produced. In 1961 only convertibles were made no coupes until 1962.
