Vehicle Description
Low mileage, exceptional care, and absolute style come together on
this 2002 Ford Thunderbird. So when you can get such a nice example
of a loaded instant classic at such a nice price, then you know
this is a special deal.
How do you average less than 1,300 miles per year? You buy a car
that you only use for special occasions. So we bet someone knew
that 2002 was a special year. After all, this is the first year the
Thunderbird returned to the streets sporting the new retro-cool
style. Even the Torch Red paint is borrowed from the original '55
T-bird. And the way this factory-applied color radiates in the
sunshine lets you know this has always been treated as a collector
car. Ford really knew how to make a car that we'd love from day
one. The chrome grille, hood scoop, bright wheels, and fender vents
are all part of the iconic experience. This one even has the
optional removable hardtop with porthole windows. So this is an
example of rolling nostalgia that has been cared for just as you
would have done if you purchased it new.
While we love the hardtop, this one is really meant to be open to
the world. That's why the interior is so well coordinated with the
exterior. So the center console, door panels, dash, shift knob, and
steering wheel all have a cool inserts to match the red exterior.
Even the leather bucket seats are part of this color theme, and you
can see it so well because low mileage means little seat time. This
is a terrific cruiser because the retro style has a ton of modern
equipment underneath. You get a power driver seat, power locks,
power steering, keyless entry, and cruise control. Plus, the radio
has been upgraded to an AM/FM/CD/XM/DVD head unit that includes
Bluetooth and a remote. Owning a modern classic also means modern
safety features such as dual airbags and anti-lock brakes. One of
your favorite experiences will include the power convertible top
and power windows. After all, that means you never have to leave
the driver's seat to go from enclosed luxury to a wind-in-your-hair
experience. Plus, dual-zone automatic climate control keeps both
you and you passenger feeling individually comfortable.
Ford's smooth 3.9-liter DOHC V8 was the choice for the Lincolns and
Jaguars of the time, and so it was the perfect powerplant for this
T-Birds. As expected on a car so nicely presented so far, this is
the original motor and it has been well maintained. But if you do
decide to take this low mileage collectable out on the road, you
will be rewarded. The V8 was designed to have low-end power to be
great in traffic, and it also has plenty left in the reserve to
keep you effortlessly cruising on the highway. This is also why
it's mated to a five-speed automatic transmission w/overdrive. This
is a personal luxury car like its ancestors, but it comes with more
modern driving features. The fully independent suspension,
four-wheel disc brakes, and grippy Michelin tires means you can be
confident on any road.
The sale comes with the original warranty card, owner's manual, and
even a stand for the hardtop. So now's your chance at a car that
offers comfort and collectability all for quite an obtainable
price. Call now!
