2003 FORD THUNDERBIRD ROADSTER CONVERTIBLE
Some Pics of me, Yes I like Louis Vuitton and Elvis :) LOL
Elvis's Last Limo
My 2003 Thunderbird Roadster Convertible. Have some pictures with the hard top on (optional) It has 2 porthole windows that make it look really retro and classy. A beautiful car. :) This model with the saddle color interior were limited production (even more so than the other Thunderbirds that year). You had to be on a waiting list just to order one. This is my dream car, and I finally have found what I have been looking for, what a nice ride, handling, not much room but who cares! :)
I have the select shift option as well and I am pushing about 295+ horses with all my little extras ;)
It is Mountain Shadow Grey (a beautiful color with metallic flakes in it that sparkle) and was a 2003 fasion color for Ford. There were only 3,165 made, and that is not including the limited amount of ones with saddle interior, so mine is even more rare. This cars sticker price was around $42,000. I'll have to scan in my window sticker. The guy who owned it was a big VP for some computer firm and laminated the sticker even. It was well taken care of and only 30,000 miles on it at the time. I have had it a couple years or so now. It has a Jaguar engine and a Lincoln LS suspension, hell you cant get much better than that. :)

And so the story goes......Traded my old ride 2003 Mustang GT Convertible in for this. The best choice I ever made. And got a hell of a deal for it too since I knew the manager of the Ford Dealership. It is my only car right now, so no its not too practical but I dont have children so it works.
Hey at least people wont be asking me to MOVE them or give them a ride right? LOL. A good car for a computer geek like myself. :( Not too many repairs so far, a few coil replacements, and some module replacements for the AC unit, ect, and a module replacement where the AC unit. Glad I bought the extended warranty. TCB TLC Thanks for checking out my ride!
