From Wikipedia:
The eleventh generation of the Ford Thunderbird is a two-passenger, front-engine/rear-drive grand touring convertible manufactured and marketed by Ford for model years 2002-2005, sharing the Ford DEW platform and styled to strongly recall the first generation 1955-1957 Thunderbird, including its removable hardtop with prominent circular glazing, with a power folding top that could lower in ten seconds and a vinyl tonneau cover.
Ford introduced a concept prototype for this Thunderbird at the 1999 North American International Auto Show on January 3, 1999, 45 years after the debut of the original. Production models arrived in mid-2001 for model year 2002, more than two years after the concept.
Foregoing an emphasis on sports performance or dynamic balance, the design featured a competitively powered V8 engine with weight and suspension favoring comfort and grand touring.
