  I love this car - 2005 Ford Thunderbird
  By ED Weiner - July 30 - 12:42 am

  Leased this car in Florida in February and have had fun with it since. Great top down car. Drove up to NH in May and got more clothing into trunk than I thought that we could. Also used the top well for soft clothing on the long trip. Have had the car in for service only for the 5000 mile oil change. The car has great fit and smooth ride. On long trips I have been averaging 24 miles to the gallon. City about 18mpg which I think is good for a large 8 cylinder. Excellent quality all the way.

  2005 T-BIRD CONVERTIBLE WITH HARD TOP - 2005 Ford Thunderbird
  By judy - July 29 - 12:24 am

  I enjoy returning to my car and finding it surrounded by people admiring it or getting a thumbs up while on the highway. The car is a pleasure to drive a lot of power and control. The interior is quiet and luxurious.

  Love My Bird! - 2005 Ford Thunderbird
  By sivyaleah - July 14 - 2:40 pm

  Im no expert by any means, but all I know is each time I look at our car, I love it even more! It drives pretty well, feels great at high speeds, has been reliable too. Looks great and thats the most important reason we bought it. We have the merlot, with merlot soft top, black interior. Car gets a lot of comments - many people think its vintage at first glance.

  I bought a Ford? - 2005 Ford Thunderbird
  By Jason - July 8 - 3:07 am

  I have loved this car before it ever hit the dealership. I knew I would have one myself someday and now that day has come. I love the way heads turn and people ask What is that car?. As i always have had a sport luxury coupe, I do miss that luxury ride though. A lot of that has to do with the many manhole covers and poor roads in Idaho. I plan on keeping this car to pass down to my niece (10 yrs old now), for she thinks it will be hers to drive once receiving her drivers license. That all remains to be seen. But I must say I love this car. I love many others as well, but knowing of Thunderbirds demise, I just had to have one of the last, so I bought an 04 with everything.

  nice choice - 2005 Ford Thunderbird
  By RON - July 6 - 6:22 pm

  Having come out of an Audi TT I was at first disappointed in the workmanship, especially interior quality. It has stood up very well however and it seems to have lost its chintz factor as I got used to it strange.

  Nice Care with some design flaws - 2005 Ford Thunderbird
  By Dave - July 6 - 1:23 am

  Beautiful Car! I love to drive it. Chose it over a Z-4. Large doors for easy access but become problems when parked in garage or parking lot. Interior plastic could be much better quality. Bottle holders on arm rest really get in the way. Performance is exceptional and will leave everything on the road behind. Golf clubs fit in trunk. Sound system is outstanding. Dealership was excellent, especially pricing. Options needed include day/night automatic mirrors and heated outside mirrors. If I had to do it over, would probably buy the BMW 3 Series convertible.

  TBird - Best Performance Value - 2005 Ford Thunderbird
  By RobTBird - June 29 - 3:44 pm

  Have had great fun with the TBird. Everywhere I go people comment how nice it looks - from parking garage attendants to people walking on the street. Distinctive, rare look. Fast convertible top raising or lowering. High performance V-8, 390 HP, for low $30s. Cant beat the performance & price

  T-BIRD - 2005 Ford Thunderbird
  By ART VAN DELAY - June 16 - 11:39 pm

  Fun to drive, they did this right. This car is tight. Well appointed, I love this car. Ive had over 50 automobiles. Had 66 Corvette, 56 T-bird they were great. This car is simply fun, and a good buy. Used theyre relatively cheap, will only go up in value over the years. How many cars can you say that about?

  A fun car - 2005 Ford Thunderbird
  By Steven - June 15 - 7:59 pm

  I bought my T-bird last month, after thinking about it for several years now. Its a fun car to drive, gets a lot of attention on the road. Handling is great, as is acceleration.
