Second car? - 2005 Ford Thunderbird
By 50th anniversary - September 21 - 2:00 amNo frills, even with the Premium version - little interior room for storage (change, maps, sunglasses) and cheap "carpeting" for the price. No lights on visor mirrors. But fun to drive.

T Birds Rock!! - 2005 Ford Thunderbird
By Doc M - September 6 - 2:00 amThis vehicle has great pep and the automatic transmission moves smoothly as the car accelerates. The SST transmission lets one shift through the gears, overriding the transmission for some fun in driving. The vehicle handles very smoothly and holds the road well. The convertible top goes up and down very quickly. The retro lines catch peoples eyes. This is a very enjoyable car to drive and ride in.

A cheap rack for the removable top. - 2005 Ford Thunderbird
By Vahan Ishkhanian - August 19 - 2:00 amGreat car... beatifull styling. Most dealer personnel are very little help, as they collectively know very little about this car. The rack for the removable hard top is a joke. I have gone through two. One the dealer could not make it work the second would not work for me. I have had the car almost half a year and have not removed the top due to this problem.

Owners impressions of Thunderbird - 2005 Ford Thunderbird
By E. S.Herz - August 10 - 2:00 amOverall I like the car. The Thunderbird however could use a bit more horsepower and most certainly the blind spots (rearward) could stand some improvement. Also, the (future) poor re-sale value of the car will be an issue when I elect to sell the Thunderbird.
