Thunderbird Blue Exterior Midnight Black & Thunderbird Blue Leather Interior Beautiful & Unmolested | 41k Miles | Rust Free CA/NV Car | 2 Owner | Clean NV title Please read this entire listing before bidding or sending queries. You are bidding on the exact beautiful 2002 Ford Thunderbird shown in the photos. There are 24 photos here, so please inspect all and enjoy! This beautiful Ford Thunderbird roadster is now available for a discriminating driver. With only two owners and 41k-ish original miles, this Ford comes in the delightful retro Thunderbird Blue (turquoise) color over a two-tone leather interior (black over blue) with aluminum accents. This Thunderbird has an impressive AutoCheck score of 91 -- well above the high range of 71! This car has been owned by two adult women from new. It was purchased new in California, and the current Nevada owner purchased it in 2008 with only 4284 miles on it. This current owner is a friend and neighbor, who is now raising two young children and driving a larger car. Note that the Thunderbird is being driven to and from work by her husband so the mileage will vary slightly from the listing and the odometer photo. This Thunderbird has a color-matched factory hardtop as seen in the photos, and includes the top removal tool. The original owner stated she never had the hard top off, and the current owner never did either until the top was removed for these photos and inspection of the factory folding top. As the photos show, the folding top is in essentially as-new condition, as one would expect considering it has never been up. The sale includes the hard top, tonneau cover, custom Thunderbird floor mats (as well as factory originals), and dash cover. Also on hand is a rolling cart for hardtop storage, and will be included if the new owner wants it and takes responsibility for its transportation. This gorgeous Thunderbird is rare, even more rare in this outstanding condition, and rarer still in this color (7406 manufactured). Its driving experience is exceptional: the rear-wheel drive is perfect for this cruiser; the smooth, Jaguar-designed AJ-30 3.9L DOHC V8 and 5-speed automatic transmission powers it from 0-60 in 7 seconds; at 60MPH it turns at a relaxed 2000 RPMs. It's hard to find that kind of smooth, powerful driving experience in a roadster anymore particularly in this price range. This fabulous Ford starts properly, idles smoothly, accelerates like a V8 should, and drives, turns, shifts and stops properly. It has zero leaks, everything works as it should, and it sports recent matching tires (around 10k on them) and new brakes. It truly looks, feels and drives like a new car. Inspections welcome and encouraged; come see for yourself. Recent professional maintenance includes: • battery replaced by Ford dealership, Mar 2011 • door lock actuators replaced, Nov 2012 • tires replaced, Jan 2013 (31,185 mi) • valve cover gaskets replaced, Feb 2013 (39,276 mi) • front and rear brakes serviced, Mar 2014 (39,991 mi) This 11th and final generation Thunderbird can be enjoyed as a coupe with the hard top on, or as a convertible with it off (soft top is folded down and hidden when hard top is installed; we have the tonneau cover for when the soft top is down as well). Around town, this car is comfortable, manageable, easy to drive, quiet and smooth. Get her on the open highway and she is powerful and rock solid at speed. I would get in it and drive it anywhere. This is a wonderful car and an excellent opportunity to own a low mileage, well-cared for, ready-to-drive modern American classic. DRIVETRAIN/MECHANICS: You have nothing to concern yourself with. Starts, idles, and runs excellent. The car has a smooth shifting 5-speed automatic mated to a 252HP 3.9 liter V8. It is smooth, powerful, runs perfectly quiet, and has zero leaks. All exterior lights work, the tires are excellent, the steering is light, tight and precise, and the new brakes stop properly and evenly without pulling or vibration. The car passed stringent Nevada tailpipe emissions testing in Sep 2013 on the first go-round [please check emissions requirements for your jurisdiction]. INTERIOR MECHANICS/COSMETICS: Gorgeous condition with factory original leather with brushed aluminum accents. The seats are firm and the leather is excellent, showing only minor wear on the driver's side. The doors and trunk all unlock properly with the key, the locks all work. A/C blows ice cold, heater blows hot. Everything works as it should and there are no cracks on the dash. A small chrome accent is missing from the passenger A/C vent but hardly noticeable. BODY/PAINT/COSMETICS/ELECTRICS:No accidents, verified by CarFax. The paint is beautiful, deep and glossy. There is no evidence of rust anywhere around or under this western US car, except at the small spot seen in the photo with the dime; it is on the passenger side along the edge where the hard top sits and is not visible with the hard top on. Also: There is a minor paint chip on the hard top. See photos 23 and 24 for these. The body is 99.99% straight with just a minor ding on the passenger side door that could not be photographed. The front shows minor road rash consistent with mileage; see photo. Panel gap is as-new. The engine compartment is clean and dry. Two wheels show minor edge curb rash, the other two do not. MY FINAL ASSESSMENT: I want to provide bidders with as much useful information as I would want myself. I'm a critical auto enthusiast, and when I say this car is in excellent condition and ready to drive and enjoy, you can check my feedback and trust that assessment. This is a superb example of a gorgeous American 2-seat roadster / coupe. You'll enjoy power and agility, and classic, understated elegance in a great car that you can drive and enjoy immediately. Please inspect the photos and read my listing carefully, ask all the legitimate questions you like, and understand what I am selling. I have bought and sold ten cars on eBay for personal use, and my eBay feedback speaks volumes. I will do my best to answer your questions, and ask that you query before you bid. Please: Have your funds available and don't waste our time or yours with scams, trades, "ideas" or tire kicking. I have 100% positive feedback and I intend to keep it. Inspections welcomed and encouraged (prior to bidding, please). Clear NV title in owner's hand and ready to sign over to the lucky new owner. To be fair to all bidders: I do not tolerate auction interference, I will not end this auction early, and I will not reveal the reserve. Deposit must be made via PayPal as required and in the time frame specified in the listing or the car will be relisted. Final payment and pickup must be made within seven (7) calendar days of auction close, in the form of cash in person at my bank, funds wired directly to my bank, or cashier's check, or your deposit will be forfeited. While I cannot make arrangements for shipping, we will assist with getting the car to the shipper. Or, you can fly into Las Vegas and drive her home as the eBay buyers of my two BMWs (1985 E30, 2003 ZHP) and my Alfa Romeo (1969 Berlina) did. Bid to own and enjoy, and good luck on landing this beauty! |

Ford Mondeo with 1.5-liter EcoBoost debuts in China
Sat, 20 Apr 2013Does the car above, posing fancifully in white, look familiar? Well, it should. Although it wears Mondeo badges in the form you see above for the Chinese market - as it does in Europe - the car is basically the same thing sold in the US as the Ford Fusion. Of course, it's what's under that shapely skin that counts.
Ford has chosen the Shanghai Motor Show as the venue with which to unveil its 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine. We'd heard about the engine before, but now we have a few performance estimates to share: 133 kW of power (about 178 horsepower) and 240 Nm of torque (about 177 pound-feet).
Those numbers pretty much confirm previous rumors indicating about 177 in each category, and it's right on par with what Ford's own 1.6-liter EcoBoost produces. Ford is claiming best-in-class fuel economy as well, but no specific figures have yet been provided. In any case, we'll surely have all the data soon enough, as the 1.5-liter mill is destined for the US Fusion in 2014.
Tanner Foust tackles 'Ring in SVT Raptor
Sat, 16 Mar 2013Here's a math problem: if Tanner Foust has a 24 hours to kill in Germany and one blue Ford Raptor, how long will it take him to decide he wants to lap The Nürburgring? Extra credit if you can get your answer precise to the millisecond.
A very truck-like and slidey lap of the 'Ring is exactly what happened when the Ford-sponsored rallycross driver took time off from set-up duties for his 'day job.' Thankfully no one even thought to worry about posting a time, but you can watch some Raptor skid marks getting laid down between the kerbs in the video below.
Ford GT inspires objects for Milan furniture show [w/videos]
Tue, Apr 14 2015Can't get enough of the lines on the new Ford GT? Then Milan is the place to be this month. That's where Ford will be presenting a series of objects whose designs were penned by the same talents behind (and inspired by) the company's new supercar. Set to be presented at the Salone del Mobile furniture show in the Italian metropolis, the collection ranges from tables, chairs and light fixtures to a sailboat, foosball table and electric guitar. "We have an incredible amount of talent in our global design studios," said Ford's chief designer Moray Callum. "Salone del Mobile is the perfect forum to share some of that creativity, while also offering our designers an opportunity to get exposure to new ideas that will inspire future Ford design." In addition to these seemingly random objects, Ford has also partnered with architect Attilio Stocchi to create a special light exhibition entitled "Favillia, Every Light a Voice," similarly inspired by the new GT. But if your plans won't be taking you to Milan anytime soon, you can check them out in the images above and the videos and press release below. This content is hosted by a third party.
