2003 Ford Thunderbird 007 Special Edition on 2040-cars
Lawton, Oklahoma, United States
|
You are bidding on a rare 2003 Ford Thunderbird 007 Special Edition. This is number 37 of 700 total produced. This one-owner car has only been driven 5670 miles and has been stored in a climate controlled garage when not in use. This car has never been involved in a collision and there are no dents or scratches. This car comes with 2 tops. The hard top has never been off the car and the soft top has never been up. The boot, hardtop Stand and cover for hardtop, and other accessories are still in the manufacturers plastic bags in the trunk. I have the original window sticker and the original bill of sale! I have compiled a notebook of pictures and documentation that will be invaluable to a collector. This car will only get more valuable in the future! The first 2 pictures were taken when the car was new, but all others are current pictures. A Short History: Known facts now that the model is out of the factory: Ford had a sweepstakes for an 007 to go along with the opening of the "Die Another Day" movie. It ended December 2002. The first cars were officially "bucked" right after Christmas and started appearing in dealer's showrooms by mid January, 2003. Production of the 007 ended sometime in March. All 700 were built and some were prepped early for shows in Europe. It is believed that 694 were sold and 6 used for shows. This limited editon features chrome 21-spoke wheels just like the Neiman Marcus editions had for 2002. The seats are a solid "performance white" colored leather. The doors are trimmed with white "wings" and the lower part of the dash is white. There is a "007" badge on the metal trim across the dash above the glove box. The hardtop color is "performance white." The steering wheel and shift knob are covered with "black ink" leather, a departure from the other "full accent" interiors. The transmission has the select shift automatic (an 03 option) and the 3.9L, 280hp engine which is standard for the 2003. Each 007 car has their own special plaque in the glove box, serializd from 001 to 700. MSRP was $43,995 This car is also known as the James Bond Special Edition or Bond Girl Special Edition, or identified with the actress Halle Berry. |

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage
Mon, 03 Jan 2011The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

Does the new 2015 Ford Mustang have a burnout control system?
Tue, 10 Dec 2013Whether it's lane departure warning, blind-spot monitoring or automatic emergency braking, most of the electronic systems we see emerging on new vehicles focus on safety. But there are some there just for enthusiasts. We're talking about systems like automatic throttle blipping for perfect downshifts, or launch control to get that textbook acceleration from a standstill. But the latest system could prove just the opposite of the latter.
Although it has given us most of the details, Ford is still keeping certain elements of its new Mustang secret. But emerging reports may have the skinny on one system which Ford is trying is darnedest to keep under its hat for the time being. That, according to unnamed sources cited by Motor Authority, is burnout control.
The system is reportedly designed to help novices execute the perfect smokey burnout - sort of like launch control, but specifically the opposite. The system could, according to elaborative speculation, lock the front brakes while spooling up the engine to optimal revolutions before dumping (or indicating the driver to do dump) the clutch. A cloud of tire smoke and a long pair of skid marks would then ensue.
Ford recalling nearly 700k Escape CUVs, C-Max hybrids over two separate safety issues
Fri, 09 May 2014Poor Escape. Ever since its launch in 2012, Ford's small CUV has been the subject of many, many, many recalls. And today, The Detroit News is reporting that Ford is adding two more recalls to the 2013-14 model year Escape's permanent record, one of them also involves the C-Max hybrid hatchback.
The first recall, covering 692,500 Escape and C-Max vehicles, is due to a software glitch that could cause the airbags - specifically, the safety canopy - to not deploy in a timely fashion during rollover crashes. According to the News, Ford says no crashes or injuries have been reported in relation to this problem.
The second recall, covering 692,700 Escapes, is related to the door handles. The News reports that the exterior door handles could open while the vehicle is in motion, and could also fail to latch properly. Once again, no crashes or injuries have occurred because of this. The National Highway Safety Traffic Administration has not issued an official notice on either recall as of this writing.
