Vehicle Description
The Thunderbird for Ford was designed to be a sports car and after the first few years of people falling in love with the style and features it kind of morphed into a luxury brand for the Ford Motor Company. The iconic '55-'57 Thunderbirds were very impressive with its cutting edge style, dual tops and performance for the thrill seeker. Unfortunately the years went by and the name plate fell into some less desirable "square birds" and the dreadful 70-80's that should have killed the model. However, in the early 90's Ford put some performance back into the model with better styling and performance to make the two door more attractable to the buyers.Ford sparked a movement with the debuting of the Thunderbird in 2002 with the launch of a special edition and limited production of the car with many styling ques from first edition Thunderbird, such as the iconic Portholes for the hard top, both tops, and front and rear end looks. After a HUGE demand from the public, Ford increased the volume of production and made these more accessible to the buyers thru 2004. Finally for 2005, Ford hung the Anniversary Badge on the car to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Thunderbird with unique badging and standard features of the heated seats, automatic climate control, Audiophile stereo with 6CD in Dash, and 17in 7-split spoke chrome wheels. This vehicle was further optioned with the factory hard top, select shift transmission and the soft top boot cover. With a MSRP of $41,865 these cars were a bargain, but so many were sold for a premium over the list price as the demand was strong for them.
