2003 Ford Thunderbird Preview summaryImage

The 2003 Ford Thunderbird continues to impress right where the well-awarded 2002 model left off. A powerful 3.9-liter V8 engine gives the little car ample pep, and with the convertible top down, the ride is fun.

The engine is rated at 280 horsepower, which is needed to propel the compact yet heavy (2-ton) car. Gas mileage is as expected, around 20mpg on city and highway combined.

The 2003 Thunderbird is loaded with the extras and styling you would expect from a luxury vehicle.

I like that she has 3 personalities: Hard top-for those snuggly days, Soft top-for those days that are a little to hot to go topless, Convertible-for the topless, flirty days. Thunderbird drives great and really has great appeal. Only downfall is you can only take two.Oct 19, 2014

The Ford Thunderbird is a weekend cruiser. Drop the top for a great canyon drive with the retro look and feel, but all the modern requirements of a nice reliable car. This vehicle is the perfect pleasure car without breaking the bank!Apr 01, 2014
