Like every other iteration of installing replica old car body panels onto late model E36 M3, this sucks (in my eyes, at least). I like the old Thunderbirds. I even like the newer Thunderbirds like this one. I do not like this.

i don't hate it, but it definitely needs chrome bumpers.  it looks weird with the headlights and taillights defining the overhangs.

If it were an amphi-car, it would be amazing.

A stock 2002 w/hardtop & 137K would drop the leading "1" off the price in the sunbelt all day long. The exterior/ interior colors and the front end are pleasant enough; but everything behind the "A" pillar is a hot mess.

The true, stock form of these cars has grown on me a bit and I don't completely dislike them.  This modification is not to my liking. Too much awkwardness.  It's not good at being a 2002 T-Bird and its not good at being a 1965 T-Bird.  I'd stick more with the genuine of either (though I don't have any interest in a 1965 T-Bird.)  

 What I really dislike is this fuzzy picture taking style for auto ads.

I usually hate this type of modern retro mashup but I like it much more than any other 2002 Thunderbird.

An improvement over as-delivered.
Still a sour note.

I don't like it enough to part with $19k; angle of fins from the back looks wonky.

I have a 1st gen Thunderbird and used a 11th as my daily. This should hit all the notes for me but its all the bad from both rolled into one.

I would not drive it here or there, I would not drive it anywhere.

I do not like blue Tee-bird Shiet,  I would not drive it any night.

In reply to iansane :

I dunno, I think maybe driving this into the harbor just to see what happens would improve this one.

I have had a very unhealthy relationship with Thunderbirds since high school. I have had 13 of them. I wouldn't kick this out of my garage, but I wouldn't pay $19k for it.
