Ford owned Jaguar from 1999 until 2008. I own a 2003 Thunderbird Premium Edition in Desert Sky Blue with whisper white and black interior. It also comes with the removable hard top. Mine does not have that clear fiberglass and the brochure doesn't mention the piece. I think the owner added that. And the brakes on my car work fine. I love the car and I get a lot of compliments on it. This car really stands out in a world where most cars look the same.

People saying any negative comments in on this review need to go find their own joy and work on their happiness. I love that Kirk is someone who loves aesthetics and appreciates the rare and one of a kind style. After its launch as car of the year the thunderbird then became “trash”’to a lot of Doug Demuro type enthusiast! Sure it could be better but it also was 2002!

The 2002 - 2005 eleventh generation T-Birds are all convertibles. You can obtain it with a nice looking hardtop though. ;)

that fiberglass was an aftermarket item that was sold as a wind screen behind the passenger compartment. Thunderbird Concepts was a company that sold many neat aftermarket parts for these cars for several years, too bad they went out of business.

I have a 2002 and love it. Have your breaks check. And it's a very fast car. And dependable. You need struts my handle. Beautiful.

The fiber glass window type thing in the back could be a windshield. It´s not standard equipment. And yes, that button lowers and raises the softtop after you have relesed the lever on the roof.

You didn't realize they were all convertibles and the removable hardtop was optional
@neil62123 жыл бұрын
I also have a 2003, and rate the brakes as excellent and controllable. Likewise the ride quality. It is adjustable. BTW, there is no such thing as a coupe. There is an optional removable hard top. Much quieter, but it IS a sporty car! You don't rate one on how quiet it is. I plan to keep mine forever. They are becoming very collectable, so it stays in the garage for the most part. Speaking of parts, it IS a Ford. New parts are very available, not cheap of course, like every semi exotic! It was also planned as a limited edition, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the T Bird. They sold out of every one they made, and they were selling for more than sticker in some cases.

Not a very attractive car, too rounded and egg shaped, looks too much like a VW beetle from the front, ugly headlights, grille should be recessed, very cheap plastic interior and very ugly, cheap looking gauges, totally did not capture the original classic look.
