I can think of many more cars I would like to have for 57 large than a 350 hp Thunderbird. But it's still cool, I guess.

Old rich white ladies are all I ever see driving the new TBirds.

The thunderbird was a huge flop right? That doesnt look sporty despite the changes.

The retro-trend has gone too far.

That is one piss-poor car. A real eyesore. Great performance I'm sure, but at the sticker price of a Vette and it looks like a car-shaped turd.

I dunno guys...I think some of you should jump off the bandwagon for a second.

That's a really nice lookin' car if you think about it, it's not to far off in shape from an MRS or a Miata, and I believe the thunderbird IS targeted to an older class of people.

I love it...it's a HELLUVA lot nicer than the thunderbirds that are out now...those are ugly as sin, but this one looks REALLY nice with the changed bodykit, and the really silky paint. If I was an older gent, lookin for a car to cruise the florida strip with my granny, I'd sure as hell think about buying that.

I personally really like it. :thumbup:

(Although, I'd definetly have to see how much they're charging me for the "Eagle One" Detail kit..lol...that's nothing but a bottle of tire shine and some towels. :chuckles:

I dunno man. That grill really needs to go and then maybe it's a ok looking car. I don't like the back spoiler or whatever it is either. It should be wingless.

I think I will stay on the bandwagon. I have a HUGE problem with any 2 seater roadster sports car that is only available with an automatic transmission.

I'm tempted to fly over their and kick you in your good leg for that one.

But I do like the kind of power figures they got out of the engine.
