For 1958, the Thunderbird was redesigned with a second row of seats.
Ford positioned the Thunderbird as an upscale model and it is credited in developing a new market segment, the personal luxury car. Unlike the Chevrolet Corvette, it was not marketed as a sports car. The Thunderbird entered production for the 1955 model year as a sporty two-seat convertible. Introduced as a two-seat convertible, the Thunderbird was offered variously as a four-seat hardtop coupe, four-seat convertible, five-seat convertible and hardtop, four-door pillared hardtop sedan, six-passenger hardtop coupe, and five-passenger pillared coupe, with the final generation designed again as a two-seat convertible.įord targeted the two-seat Thunderbird as an upscale model, but the 1958 model year design introduced a rear seat and arguably marked the expansion of a market segment eventually known as personal luxury cars, positioned to emphasize comfort and convenience over handling and high-speed performance. The Ford Thunderbird (colloquially called the T-Bird) is a personal luxury car manufactured and marketed by Ford from model years 1955-2005 (with a 1997-2002 hiatus), across 11 generations. Sports car (first and eleventh generations).Get one while the price is still reasonable, and target the 2005 50th Anniversary model T-Bird for the best holding value. Uses premium fuel but delivers 22-25 mpg even traveling the interstates at 65-70 miles per hour. Will cruise down the roadway with the best ! My T-Bird is a 2005 50th anniversary model convertible, color is red with black leather interior, black convertible top w/ electric defrost, and a Ford T-Bird white hardtop with round portal and electric defrost.Whenever we travel the vehicle commands interest, attention, and questions from both the curious and admirers! No regrets or concerns regarding my purchase of this great road car. A really neat cruising car! Takes you back to the good old days of T-Bird but with modern updates (air conditioning, cruise control, dual climate control, power disc brakes, 12 volt system, cd player, power steering & brakes, and other nice … updates). Trunk is more than adequate to accommodate luggage or golf clubs. Only has 2 seats and limited space in the interior for additional items. On the assumption it will resolve, I’m giving the 5 but if it doesn’t it would knock it down to 4. That hiccup has me stuck between a 4 and 5 star experience. A little more pressure there but we have been able to initiate necessary corrections so far. Went to the dealership and they did honor the quoted price eventually (a little back & forth on dealer add ons, but it’s a dealership so it’s to be expected I guess).įinancial side went ok. In light of the incentives It didn’t make sense not to buy. Was the best of all quotes in the Valley. Had shopped for a Mach e for fairly long time because of how the market was (didn’t need right away and not interested in “market adjustments”).įound one on edmunds and got a price quote online.

Not what the American icon Henry Ford would have ever wanted. This practice needs to be looked at, This is unfair and sad. I’m not a millionaire I’m sorry, just an average joe trying to buy a car not get ripped off. This $7500 walked me away from the deal today and quite frankly has left myself and my family so upset. I talked to Ford direct and other dealer that confirmed this should not be happening because Ford agreed not to mark allow dealer up their vehicles. I spent all day, 11:15 to 6.15 trying to buy a Ford Mustang Mach-e and This dealer charges $7500 more on top of msrp. The dealership on the other hand only cares about there over priced markup cars. The salesman James truly cares about his customer. Here at Grieco Ford of Delray Beach, every used vehicle is inspected by certified Ford technicians.
