Some call it the Retrobird, others, the NEW Thunderbird or the 11th Generation Thunderbird,  whatever!  It's a 2-seater cruisin' convertible and I  waited 45 years for Ford to decide to build it again. 

Yes, all of these 2002-2005 Thunderbirds are convertibles. 
Yes, ALL of these Thunderbirds have a V8 engine

The latest new pages are about storing a flat tire in your trunk and replacing your spare tire.

This model Thunderbird is a limited production model i.e., limited to a max of 100,000.  It ended with about 68,000 of those actually built over the 4 year period from June 2001 to July 1, 2005.  *Official end was July 1 but actual end was July 25 when the last 15 t-birds finally crossed the line.  Wixom was shutdown for summer break (change over to new model year) from July 2-24.

The Wixom Assembly plant is proud to have built 1,160,827 Thunderbirds since the plant opened in 1958.  Sad to say, though, the Wixom plant is now closed, another sign of the sagging sales by US Auto Manufacturers.
