A much sought-after classic from Ford is the Ford Thunderbird, or as it is fondly known, the T-Bird. The T-Bird was introduced in 1955 and was produced in 1997, then resurrected in 2002 until finally discontinued in 2005. Altogether Ford had over eleven generations of the Thunderbird. The first generation T-Bird was an opener, but the second generation is what made the car famous. When Ford resurrected the T-Bird in 2002, they were looking to capture the second generation's appeal and translate it to a modern design, which had borne mixed results from critics and enthusiasts. While the last generation of the T-Bird wasn't a great success, as only 68,098 were produced, they are still considered collectible, as is the case with this 2002 Ford Thunderbird Premium with just 376 miles on the odometer.
This 2002 Ford Thunderbird Premium is painted in Evening Black, and the hardtop is also finished in the body color and features portholes on either side with chrome bezels. A set of chrome-clad OEM 7-spoke aluminum-clad wheels with the Thunderbird logo in the center graces the T-Bird. The front features a distinctive design with round headlights flanking the egg-crate chrome grille while the turn signal lights are surreptitiously embedded into the bumper. The rear is stark save for the chrome T-Bird logo and the silver-tipped tailpipes. On entry, you are greeted by a chrome door sill with embossed Ford and Thunderbird logos. The interior is finished in Midnight Black, and the reclining leather bucket seats feature heating. The car comes with the Black Appearance Package, which adds a high-gloss black accent to the leather-wrapped steering wheel and the automatic transmission gear selector. A silver trim piece runs from the dashboard to the doors. The passenger dash side features the Thunderbird script in the silver trim. An expensive feature, the 6-CD changer is also present in this T-Bird.
The 2002 Ford Thunderbird Premium comes powered with the same powerplant used in the Lincoln LS, the Jaguar-designed 3.9L V8 coupled to Ford's 5-speed automatic transmission. Altogether the T-Bird has a power output of 252hp and 267 lb.ft of torque.
In the ʼ00s, Ford decided to honor its timeless Thunderbird personal luxury car with a retro-modern eleventh generation. Produced for just three short years, this eleventh-generation T-Bird saw over 60,000 units made. Heavily inspired by the first generation from the 1950s, this new T-Bird sat on a modern platform, and used a V8 from Jaguar, of all places. Today, we’ve got a 2003 Ford Thunderbird for those who are intrigued by this pastiche of ʼ50s styling and ʼ00s mechanicals and creature comforts. The car has done only 8,312 miles, making it a real rare find, and a definitive future classic.
In 1955, the Ford Thunderbird entered the American luxury car market and shook it up. Aimed at bringing Americans a taste of the European Grand Touring experience, the Thunderbird was called the Personal Luxury Car. It was a powerful two-seater with a suitably spacious trunk and all the creature comforts of the day. Aimed at covering hundreds of miles with ease, the T-Bird quickly became a cult classic. Ford made ten generations until 1997, but they had a brief change of heart in 2002. Hence, a retro-modern eleventh generation was released, and made until 2005. Just 60,000 were sold, making this generation relatively rare in comparison with the early ones from the Fifties and Sixties. So, if you’ve wanted to try out one of these curios, check out this 4,475-mile 2002 Ford Thunderbird that’s for sale right now with us.
Ford’s Thunderbird is responsible for creating the Personal Luxury Car segment in the United States, a segment that the famous, wealthy and powerful flocked to like moths to a flame in the fifties through eighties. Personal Luxury Cars were modeled on Europe’s Grand Tourers, aimed at providing smooth, swift and serene transportation across great distances while offering all the luxury niceties and creature comforts that were cutting-edge at the time. Introduced in 1955, the first-gen Thunderbird would run for a mere three model years before the second generation came about. With a mere 53,166 made, it’s not so easy to find a great example these days. However, we at Exotic Car Trader have developed somewhat of a knack for finding and offering great examples of iconic cars. This 1957 Ford Thunderbird is no exception. We’re told that the car was fully restored around 15 years ago, which explains why it still looks in great order.
Ford’s longest-running series to date, the F-Series entered production in 1948, and revolutionized small businesses across America. Here was a sturdy, capable and reliable pickup truck that came in capacities of ½ ton upwards. It offered a great way to transport your goods to market, bring back raw materials, and carry your family as well. Now we’re on the fourteenth generation of the F-Series, and there have been many greats along the way. This 2008 Ford F-150 Harley Davidson comes from the eleventh generation and is the result of a collaboration between Ford and Harley Davidson. This special edition was offered for the tenth generation as well. Furthermore, this truck comes with the Saleen supercharger package, making it one heck of a ride to own and drive.
Ford’s Mustang continues to be a runaway sales hit over sixty years later. The starter of the pony car category, the Mustang could be had as a lovely open-topped cruiser, or a potent V8-packing muscle car scarer. One of the more performance-oriented derivatives was the Mach 1. As you may imagine, this was peak Jet Age era, and supersonic travel was an intriguing concept. While your road-going Mustang Mach 1 certainly couldn’t touch the speed of sound or get anywhere near it, it sure was a nice tag to have. Furthermore, the Mach 1 came with a host of cosmetic and performance enhancements. If you’re interested in owning a first-generation Mach 1, here’s a 112,334-mile 1972 Ford Mustang Mach 1 up for sale. The car has received recent servicing as well.
