This heritage flavored design exercise was meant to recapture America’s good feelings about Ford cars. The new Thunderbird was an inventive interpretation of the iconic 55-57 ‘Bird and changed very little in the transition from show car o road car. The 2002 T-bird shared variations of the engine and chassis also used by the Lincoln LS8 and Jaguar S-type. The deluxe model was well equipped, while the Premium package added traction control and chrome wheels. Deluxe and premium models were available with a removable hardtop that featured the ’57 T-Bird’s signature porthole window.
