Ford’s T-Bird or Thunderbird model may not be in production anymore, but it’s a compelling classic and desirable model for a special reason; it kickstarted the category known as the ‘personal luxury car’. Produced from 1954 to 1997 across ten generations, Ford decided to capitalize on the retro-modern bandwagon with the eleventh generation in 2002 that was produced for just three short years. If a T-Bird is your thing, we present this 2002 Ford Thunderbird Convertible from Colorado with just 21,800 miles on the clock. The seller reports that it’s been annually serviced by a Ford dealership, and it comes with a Thunderbird car cover as well as a rack for the top. In case you didn’t know, this generation of T-Bird was also featured on the silver screen, driven by Halle Berry in the James Bond film ‘Die Another Day’.
This generation was styled by Jack Telnack and incorporated a modernization of the classic Thunderbird styling cues. The styling has been praised for elegance and beauty, which this 2002 Ford Thunderbird Convertible proudly shows off in its Thunderbird Blue paintjob that is very Sixties! This car sports a power retractable convertible top, and the original color-matched removable hardtop sporting the iconic ‘porthole’ on each side is included in the sale. It’s seven-spoke 17-inch cast aluminum shiny wheels are wrapped in Michelin tires, reportedly installed last summer. Dual exhausts with bright tips complete the look. The interior features a black and blue color scheme that matches the exterior blue. A retro-style white-faced gauge cluster faces the driver. The car also has a power tilt and telescoping steering column, auto headlamps with variable display, an AM/FM stereo with 6-CD changer, dual-zone climate control, cruise control and anti-theft alarm are part of the gadget count.
The eleventh generation T-Bird is built on the Ford DEW98 platform that also underpinned the Lincoln LS, Jaguar S-Type and Jaguar XF, as Ford owned Jaguar at the time. This 2002 Ford Thunderbird Convertible is powered by Jaguar’s 3.9L AJ30 V8 that puts out 252hp and 267lb-ft to the rear wheels via a five-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. Four-wheel ventilated disc brakes with ABS and variable assistance power steering are present as well. This example is also reported to have received a brand new battery.

Ford’s contribution to American motoring history in the luxury segment, the Thunderbird came in 1955 and created the Personal Luxury Car segment. The idea was to replicate what was called the Grand Tourer in Europe. After all, the United States was gaining some fine interstates, crisscrossing the land and connecting East and West. There was stunning scenery, interesting culture and culinary delights to be explored. All the well-heeled needed was a suitable car to connect them all with. That’s where the Personal Luxury Car came in. The Thunderbird ran from 1955 to 1997 across ten generations, then a homage eleventh generation was made between 2002 and 2005. Today’s 1989 Ford Thunderbird Super Coupe is from the tenth generation and resides in Delray Beach, Florida. It’s got just 10,500 miles on its wheels, and a supercharged engine under its hood! Join us as we tell you more, and if you’d like to own this car, we’re ready to help.
Known as the creator of the Personal Luxury Car segment, Ford’s Thunderbird drew inspiration from Europe’s grand tourers—machines built for comfort, elegance, and long-distance cruising. Ford ultimately produced eleven generations of the T-Bird, evolving from its original two-seat layout to a more versatile four-seat design that broadened its appeal. This 1960 Ford Thunderbird is a standout second-generation example currently offered in Aptos, California. With only 12,510 miles since its full restoration, this car presents as a well-preserved and thoughtfully updated classic. Upgrades such as a front disc brake conversion and electric windshield wipers enhance drivability while maintaining its vintage charm. The sale also includes a car cover and a reprinted original owner’s manual, making it an inviting opportunity to own and enjoy a piece of American automotive history.
The 1955 model year marked the debut of the Ford Thunderbird, a car that defined the American two-seat personal luxury segment and rivaled the Corvette with style and refinement. This first-year example is finished in black over a black-and-white vinyl interior and retains its timeless original character. Powered by the 292 cubic-inch “Y-block” V8 paired with a Ford-O-Matic 3-speed automatic transmission, it delivers smooth cruising power wrapped in one of Ford’s most iconic designs. Showing 77,080 miles and reported by the current owner as an all-original car, it represents a significant opportunity to own a true piece of midcentury motoring history.
Ford gives its Mustang pony car plenty of gallop straight from the factory. But what if you want a raging racehorse instead? Well, that’s where you’d need to venture into the realm of Shelby. Shelby Mustangs are worshipped and revered as some of the most potent around, ever since Carroll Shelby looked at the first-generation Mustang and decided to work his magic on it. Now, Shelby Mustangs roll out of the Ford factory itself, in tribute to the great man who sadly left us some years back. Today, we have a 2020 Ford Mustang GT350 for sale from Gilbert, Arizona with just 5,900 miles to its name. What’s even nicer is that it’s been tuned by Lund Racing and features a supercharger installed on to its 5.2-liter V8. This, the 6-speed manual transmission and many more things make this the ultimate performance Mustang for the discerning driving enthusiast.
