2002 Ford Thunderbird V8
Specifications
Description
With so many bland copycat machines crowding driveways and freeways alike, it's refreshing to see an automotive giant like Ford prioritise design and heritage as much as it did with the 2002 Thunderbird.
It was this iconic American design, along with a smooth ride, V-8 power, high-quality convertible top, and value-packed sticker price, that got it named the Motor Trend 2002 Car of the Year.

- This car looks great with red paint highlighting the chrome perfectly and it evokes the louche decadence of those earlier cars.

The T-Bird proves an excellent conversation starter everywhere it goes. Many admirers just want to catch a closer glimpse, while others even asked us to take them for a short ride.
Ford did a respectable job in bringing this car icon back to life. It channels loads of charm from the original, yet works as a modern car that's reasonably priced and useable every day. It really is the ultimate weekend getaway. With soft-sided luggage, two people can travel for a few days in the summer months.
