For Sale: 2005 Ford Thunderbird in Mesa, Arizona

Vehicle Description

When it debuted back in 1955, the Ford Thunderbird was a fun-loving two-seat roadster that captured the hearts and minds of auto enthusiasts (and non-enthusiasts) everywhere. And while subsequent generations of the T-Bird each had their strengths and weaknesses, it wasn't until the eleventh generation that Ford rediscovered the charm of being America's Personal Luxury Car. Half a century later, we are treated to this 2005 Ford Thunderbird 50th Anniversary edition. A true Anniversary Edition car, this classic droptop is one of just 1,500 ever made. With only 72,142 actual miles on its odometer, this one-owner roadster is just as collectible as any other T-Bird in history.

Inside, we find a stock and elegant Cashmere White leather interior. A center console featuring dual cupholders separates a pair of power and heated bucket seats. Power windows, locks, mirrors, air-conditioning, cruise control, as well as a power tilt and telescoping steering wheel make this generation far more livable on a day-to-day basis than the original version of the T-Bird it was based on. A six-disc in-dash CD changer pumps sound out through the 8-speaker, dual-subwoofer premium stereo system, and is powerful enough to be heard whether you are going with the soft top up or down, or the removable hardtop on or off.

Under the hood, we find a numbers-matching original 3.9-liter Jaguar-built DOHC AJ30 V-8, which features variable valve timing and electronic throttle control. In stock form, this engine produces 280 horsepower and 286 pound-feet of torque, which are then routed through its 5R55S five-speed automatic transmission before being sent to the rear wheels via the 3.58-geared rear end.
