believe that Ford missed a significant styling cue, by not adding small
fins to the new Tbird. It has everything else: porthole roof, grille, round
tail lights, two seats. What gives? |

about hardtop hoists. Check the accessory page on this site. There are
3 companies listed that make hoists for the hardtops. They make manual
and electric hoists. |

| C1 : Love
your website! I have a question: Of the 25,000 '02 TBirds, how can I get
a breakdown made by color? (Or approximate)? What color was the most made,
which are the rarest, etc. I hear ideas but I want specifics. Thanks! If
anyone knows, email to ucla81 |

Pricing: I just bought a Thunderbird Blue TBird for under MSRP. Other dealerships
wants + over sticker. Did anyone else find wide ranges in dealer pricing?
Are these cars becoming not as 'hot' as we all want them to be? |

| C1 : Ken,
The exact figures for color breakdown have not been released by Ford yet
and we're not even sure if production has stopped for the 2002 yet as the
2003 won't start production until mid-November. Our best estimation and
from those that have talked to |
| C2 : plant
is that Black is the #1 choice, with red and blue as 2nd and 3rd choices.
yellow is in 4th place and white at the bottom |

a truly magnificent vehicle! I tried to count the number of people who
turn their heads to stare at it, but I lost count. Nice job, Ford! |
| C2 : My
only complaint is poor AM radio reception. It would probably be better
to have an external antenna. |

having a terrible problem with what I now have learned is mildew on my

We are awaiting (for over 3 weeks) a new top. We live in Florida. Anyone

Aubrey, the colors are done in small batches so all 5 colors will be available
for most of the model year. Only while the coral is being painted, will
1 of the colors be sidelined. |

down to at or below msrp. The Thunderbird blue |

a color just for the 2002 but there is a light, robin's egg blue called
desert sky blue, that will be available for the 2003 if you end up having
to order. my dealer has 5 coming in in TX unspoken 4. 1 is t-bird blue. |
