introduced a new Thunderbird for 2002. Returning to the original
formula for the Thunderbird, the latest version had a two-seat
coupe/convertible layout like the first-generation Thunderbird and
retrofuturistic styling to match. The eleventh generation
Thunderbird was built at Ford's Wixom Assembly Plant and was based
on the company's DEW98 platform, which was shared with the Lincoln
LS and Jaguar S-Type. Though the Thunderbird's exterior styling was
unique relative to its platform mates, the instrument panel,
steering wheel, and other trim pieces were borrowed from Lincoln
LS. The sole engine of the Thunderbird was a Jaguar-designed AJ-30
3.9 L DOHC V8, a short-stroke (85mm) variant of the Jaguar AJ-26
4.0 L V8, making 252 horsepower (188 kW) and 267 lb-ft (362 N�m) of
torque. The engine was mated to Ford's 5R55N 5-speed automatic
transmission. The AJ-30 V8 was replaced by the AJ-35 in 2003 and
later Thunderbirds, bringing with it variable valve timing (VVT)
and electronic throttle control (ETC) as well as 280 horsepower
(210 kW) and 286 lb-ft (388 N�m) of torque. Complementing the extra
power and torque provided by the AJ-35 V8, a manual shift feature
for the 5-speed automatic called SelectShift was available as an
option in 2003 and later Thunderbirds. With sales dropping off
significantly after its first model year, Ford decided to make the
2005 model year the Thunderbird's last with no scheduled successor.
The last one rolled off the assembly line on July 1, 2005. Front
