2004 Ford Thunderbird

Well - you'll really enjoy this car. My wife and I have spent hours driving to nowhere, and enjoy every minute of it. Heated-seats and air-conditioning (both highly recommended, but not installed on all T-Birds) extend "convertible season" to 7 maybe 8 months in the Northern Mid-West. Performance is very nice and sporty in both power and handling (those curvy back country roads are really fun, especially during the Fall while being leaf-peepers).

Technically speaking, the Platform Control Module (PCM) and Ignition Coils (1 per cylinder) are subject to failure (do Google searches). Fortunately Ford Motor Company warranty covered these items for us, saving literally thousands in repair costs. Do your research on problems you may exeperience, as you may need to coax your dealership along in finding ways to cover these (hint-hint), as most seem to be 8-year items.

I found this car for my father, He owned a 56 T-bird that he misses driving very much. This is as close to it I could come up with, I know that it will never fully replace the 56 Bird, but this car is smooth to drive and as sharp in appearance as he will ever want.

Super communication by seller, car was better than advertised. I wish all Ebay transactions would be like this one!

Thanks Mary

Excellent Condition. Styling is outstanding. Everything is as good as new! The car was just as shown in the pictures. It underwent a mechanical inspection and passed perfectly.

The original 50s Ford Thunderbirds were the dream cars of my youth and this retro Thunderbird delivers all the excitement of that by- gone era, while encorporating the technology of modern vehicles. My 2004 is an outstanding cruiser with the feel and performance of a much sportier car. The styling is so different from any other vehicle you see on the road and is a real eye turner. The 3.9 liter V8 seems the perfect match for the weight of the car and has been rock solid in performance and reliability. Even considering the need for premium fuels, the excellent mileage of 24+mpg makes operation affordable. You do have to accept the lack of trunk space and low head room, especially with the hardtop on; however if this is what you need then you are looking at the wrong vehicle. The Thunderbird is a real joy to drive and amazingly comfortable on long trips. There is plenty of leg room and very little road noise. The sound system is excellent. The Retro-Bird truly brings out my passion for driving.

I had no intention of buying a T-Bird. Until I drove one. These cars are WAY under estimated! They haul, and can handle like an exoitc sports car. The gas miliage is truly impressive at 25-30 mpg. Creature comforts are in there too.! A real show stopper for a late model classic. I've owned over 100 cars in my lifetime and at 58 years old I still love a performance automobile. This is THE BEST OF THE BEST!! It's hard to understand why anybody would want to sell one!! These cars will continue to appriciate in value, now that the economy is nearing a bottom, and not to mention, THEY DON"'T MAKE'EM ANYMORE!! Ford has never made a better automobile. PERIOD!

I MADE A BAD CHOICE IN BUYING THIS VEHICLE ON EBAY. LOOK AT THE DISCRIPTION YOUSELF. THEY COULD HAVE POINTED OUT THE BODY DAMAGE WITH A POINTER OR JUST WITH A FINGER POINT. THIS CAR HAD $805.57 BODY AND PAINT DAMAGE TO LEFT FRONT ALONG. IT HAD NONE MATCHING TIRES. TWO FALKENS ON FRONT AND TWO WORN OUT FIRESONES ON REAR. IT HAD BEEN REPAINTED ON DRIVERS DOOR. CLEAR COAT IS PEELING. THIS SHOULD ALL HAVE BEEN POINTED OUT OR LISTED.ALSO THERE WAS A BIG GUAGE IN REAR BUMPER COVER, ALSO CRUISE CONTROL DONT WORK. ALSO ALL OF THE SYMBOLS ARE GONE {WORN OFF} ON CRUISE CONTROL. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN LISTED OR PICTURED. AGAIN READ THE DISCRIPTION OF VEHICLE. DO YOU SEE ANYTHING OTHER THAN EXCELLENT LISTED IN BOLD LETTERS NOT ONE TIME BUT TWO TIMES. I GAVE $15900 FOR A CAR THAT WAS WORTH ABOUT $14000. SHAME ON ME. I LEARNED MY LESSON. YOU WOULDNT BE HAPPY WITH THIS PURCHASE WHY SHOULD I. I MUST HAVE CALLED AT LEAST 15 TIMES TO GET ANYTHING DONE AND ONLY AFTER SAYING I WAS GOING TO EBAY DID THEY FINALLY SAY THEY WOULD ONLY GO $500.00 AND THAT WAS ONLY IF I LEFT A GOOD FEEDBACK FIRST. WHAT A RIP OFF. $500.00 DIDNT NEAR COVER ALL THAT IS WRONG WITH THIS CAR. ALSO I FORGOT TO SAY THAT THE TRANSPORTERS TRUCK BLEW A HYDROLIC LINE IN TRANSPORT AND THE CAR WAS TOTALLY COVERED IN HYDROLIC FLUID. YOU THINK I MAY HAVE SOME REASONS FOR BEING UNHAPPY. TRANSPORTERS ADMITTED BLOWING LINE AND OFFERED $25.00 FOR CLEANUP. I COULDNT GET NOTHING DONE FOR $25.00 WHOLE CAR NEEDED CLEANED AND POLISHED. THIS HAS BEEN THE VERY WORST TRANSACTION EVER MADE.PERIOD!!! I GUESS I SHOULD HAVE BEEN SMARTER OR THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE HONEST. SHAME ON ME. JOE

This car is perfect. 4 years old, 13000 miles and just like it came off the showroom floor.We drove it home fome Illinois and the ride was exceptional. I even got 28.5 MPG on the trip from this powerful 8 cylinder. It is a real head turner. I couldn't be happier with this car.

I wanted the "new" T-bird about 4+ years ago; however, after a disturbing test drive with a very "jerky" salesman, my husband said no way to the T-bird! My dreams were dashed...but not totally. The end of lease on my Lexus RX330 was near...and my 45th birthday was right around the corner...I decided that a 2004 Vintage Mint Green Thunderbird was the perfect gift to ring in my 45th year! I am so happy with the car. When you turn that ignition key, it sounds like a jet! The color, the ride, the hard-top with the portholes...I love it all. I always wanted a T-bird, but needed/wanted a reliable car with the modern conveniences of today...I got just that with the "new" T-bird. The first time I drove it, I felt like I was in a vintage car without the worry that it was going to breakdown or the door was going to fall off! Also, this car definitely gets people's attention! Love, love, love the car. What more can I say?
