For Sale: 2002 Ford Thunderbird in Concord, North Carolina

The retro good looks of this 2002 Ford Thunderbird are only the tip of the iceberg. With the distinctive color combo, color-matched hardtop loaded A/C interior, and smooth V8 power, it's a low mileage dream at an affordable price.

This is an exceptionally desirable year to own a Thunderbird. 2002 was the rebirth of the legendary nameplate in this cool retro style. Plus, the Thunderbird Blue paint was available for a single model year only. This one has averaged only about 1,600 miles annually, so the metallic finish's smooth glow looks like it has hit the road less frequently than that. And you'll love that all the details are right, including the grille, hood scoop, fender vents, and porthole on the iconic removable hardtop. Everything appears how the factory made it, so the doors fit tight and the bright alloy wheels shine like mirrors. This truly is a rare opportunity to own an exceptionally presented modern classic.

Just like the original T-Bird, the interior does a fantastic job of coordinating with the exterior. After all, this car is meant to be seen with the top down. So leather seats have turquoise inserts to coordinate with the exterior. The shifter knob and steering wheel are also done to match. It's a factory option that gives added distinction to the tasteful black, and so it feels worth every penny. Plus, low mileage means the whole package has the look of less use and exceptional preservation. This comes loaded with everything you could want, including a premium AM/FM/CD stereo, a power driver's seat, power windows, power locks, power steering, alarm system, cruise control, and a power tilt steering column. Owning a modern classic also means modern safety features such as dual front airbags and anti-lock brakes. If you do happen to take this out for a sunny-day cruise, there's the power-folding soft top to keep everything secure when you need it. Plus, the dual-zone climate control means you and your passenger can dial in an individual temperature to stay cool while looking cool in your T-Bird.

The engine bay continues the clean look of this well-respected personal luxury car. 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 choice for the T-Birds. This fuel-injected powerhouse has a good powerband to be a strong stoplight puller or an all-day highway cruiser. This versatility is only heightened by the five-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. It's a personal luxury car like its ancestors, but it comes with more modern driving features. The fully independent suspension and four-wheel disc brakes mean you can be confident on any road.

The sale comes complete with the original window sticker, owner's manual packet, soft top convertible boot, and hardtop stand. This beautiful first-year Thunderbird has pedigree and rarity. So when it's also this affordable, you know it won't be with us long. Call now!
