The Thunderbird ranks second only to the Mustang as Ford's most iconic nameplate in history. The buying public has seen eleven model generations, from 1955 to 1997, and again from 2002 to 2005. From the introduction in 1955 until the recent departure in 2005, Ford produced over 4.4 million units. Ford actually created the new niche with the manufacture of the T Bird. It was never known as a sports car, but rather a personal luxury car.

The early Thunderbirds are some of the most collectible examples in the classic car hobby. Style, power, and comfort put the vehicle in a class of its' own. The introductory T-Bird had style in spades, owing to its low, two-seat bodywork. Thun­derbird's height from the cowl to the ground was just slightly more than three feet. It had a 102-inch wheelbase -- more than a foot shorter than a 1955 Ford sedan -- yet borrowed heavily from the many new styling touches adopted for the year's full-size Fords. Though it was inspired by the many -- mostly foreign-built -- sports cars that were capturing the imagination of American enthusiasts in the early 1950s, the Thunderbird was built like a little luxury car. Its family car-like suspension delivered a softer ride than "pure" sports cars. The T Bird evolved from a two seat to a four seat configuration in 1958. As time passed, ten model generations were developed. However, by the eighth generation, the original concept was lost, and sales began to suffer.

In response to the lackluster reception of the eighth-generation 1980–1982 Thunderbird, Ford executed a significant ninth generation redesign for 1983. Sales rebounded, and on December 26, 1988, a completely redesigned tenth generation Thunderbird was introduced as a 1989 model alongside its sister car, the Mercury Cougar. The tenth generation had the longest run of the series, from 1989 to 1997. This model, however, had run its' course by then. By 1996 Ford began to reduce its investment in the tenth generation Thunderbird. While the Thunderbird received minor changes for 1996, the Super Coupe model was discontinued the previous year and the options list for the remaining models was condensed. In 1997, Ford decided to discontinue the tenth generation Thunderbird with the last example of the car rolling off the assembly line in Lorain, Ohio on September 4 of that year.

Fast forward to 2002. At this time, the retro style was at the peak of popularity. New models like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Chrysler PT Cruiser and Prowler, and the Mini Cooper prompted Ford to reintroduce the Thunderbird eleventh generation. After being on hiatus for several years, Ford introduced a new Thunderbird for 2002. Returning to the original formula for the Thunderbird, the latest version had a two-seat coupe/convertible layout like the first-generation Thunderbird and retro styling to match. The 2002 model garnered Motor Trend Car of the Year and North American Car of the Year honors. The last generation was short lived. Ford decided to make the 2005 model year the Thunderbird's last with no scheduled successor. The last one rolled off the assembly line on July 1, 2005.

This short production run and unique styling has created a loyal following in the collector car hobby. There is now a group of collectors that covet the last generation models almost as much as the first. In primary demand are the extremely low mileage units with the "in the wrapper" appearance. The Thunderbird we are offering for sale is a prime example. Still appearing as it did the day it left the showroom floor. With 9.5 original miles on the odometer, this is one of the lowest mile, if not THE lowest mile offering on the planet. This is the chance to own one of the finest examples of a 2002 Thunderbird available anywhere.

The stunning Thunderbird Blue paint looks as fresh as the day this beauty arrived home. Mirror gloss and unblemished. Removable porthole top and power retractable convertible top. Seven spoke 17 inch chrome wheels. P235/50VR17 radial tires.
