2002 Ford Thunderbird review
In 2002 they sold over MSRP adjusted for inflation @$54K in todays money- pricier than the 2002 Corvette and sold like 30,000 that year. I think that new car buyer had to probably be searching for the 1955 Thunderbird experience to shell out that kind of cash, and most people born on the 60’s and 70’s just didn’t understand that appeal. Oddly, the demographic that did BABIED their cars, kept up maintenance, have all the original tools and covers (just try and find that T-handle wrench for the hard top for example) when you get lucky enough to get a shot at buying one of these babies cars you’ll find they’re sharp and quick, amazingly so despite what people someone lent one to to write about said 20 years ago. Shod with 17inch tires 🛞 and solid suspension, people can complain about the horsepower being light, but stomp it and it will jump, zoom and weave solidly with the best of them. My drive home from buying this car was a blast. Will other sports models eke out slightly better speed, power and performance over these 20 year old T-birds? Sure, why not. Does it matter if you’re not at Road Atlanta? No. For me, this a sleeper sports car that’s about to bust onto the scene and see its reputation finally living up to the 2002 Car of the Year Award Motor Trend gave it. I think you need to find one of these babied sweethearts like I did. It’s a blast to find a good one and discover what an under rated blast it is to drive. Can’t really call it super nimble, but I respect mines solid ride and reasonably quick response & rocket like performance. The incredibly clean lines scream style visually and I suggest that a 2 tone leather optional interior is worth an extra $1K (over the basic. $11-12 K value) a hard top/rack/tonneau cover intact is worth another grand. ($13-14K total seems fair generally for a babied one). Check the rubber suspension parts underneath (inside the front wheel well behind the tire) is the easiest one to check quickly for rot w/o getting under the rear).

2003 Ford Thunderbird review
I absolutely love this car. My only wish is that I can find a Hard Top to put on it at a reasonable price. But I still love this car. I am sorry but I do. It puts a smile on my face. And I didn't have to pay a fortune for it either. It still looks like new, and it drives great, and it handles excellent. It is the Torch Red w/Black Ink Interior. And this is to the guy that says the 3.9 engine is underpowered, you are nuts, this thing screams down the highway, not that I am a speed demon, but it does. I don't know what else to say about this Thunderbird, but I wish I had bought one many years ago. Nuff said.

Harper Motors review
Today, we had four key fobs that had failing batteries in them. We struggled with the task, so we went to Harper Ford, Eureka to see if they could help. We were very pleased with Dave at the Parts and Services Department. He was very pleasant and even though it was small tedious request, he cheerfully completed it as if we were the best customers in the world. We have purchased three cars from them in the past and in each transaction, it was never a time that I felt that we were pressured but treated respectfully. The parts department also serviced our car, as well, for a recall and again the service was wonderful. We highly recommend Harper Ford's dealership. In fact, for one of the cars we purchased, we walked away from another car dealership due to their aggressive sales person and the added on additions when it was time to sign on the dotted line for the purchase. The best decision we ever did.
2003 Ford Thunderbird review
I love the way the car looks. Beautiful exterior design. Finding the 93 octane ethanol-free gas can be a pain, though. I bought mine used from a dealership. They didn't check her out - of course she was only on the market less than 48-hrs. before I bought her. The cobwebs under the hood should've let me know the previous owner didn't drive her enough. The "recommended" recall on the coil packs was not done. Two went bad, so I replaced all 8. Expensive! The engine light and damned "wrench" light came on 200 miles after replacing the COPS. The computer error code kept indicating COPS. It was not. Long story short, and $2,500.00 later, I had TWO computers replaced. Ford no longer makes them, so they're hard to find. Once installed, they have to "talk" to each other. Mine wouldn't. An expert on Jaguar engines was consulted, and he had to bring all his diagnostic equipment. My bird was in the shop for 2 months. Finally fixed - she had to "re-learn" almost everything, but after two weeks of driving, she was back to normal. Now, she runs like a "scalded cat"! I am a T-Bird nut, so to me, it was worth spending the money to get her repaired. She has 57,000 miles on her. I was told these cars, with the 3.9 liter Jaguar engine HAVE to be driven. They cannot "sit". Fine with me. I LOVE this T-Bird, and regret nothing. Now she is with an owner that will take care of her. Whisper White with Black Leather interior, removeable hardtop with black convertible top underneath. Small trunk, but I didn't buy her to stuff the trunk full of things. A really, really awesome car - if taken care of.
