Any updates of future of the bird?

Has there been any more news lately on what Ford has in mind for the T-bird after the 05 model year? I hope they will come out with a 4 seater version.

Its not clear if Ford will continue making the current Thunderbird into 2006 or 2007 but for sure there wont be a four seater that soon.

Future of the T-bird

The latest direction is to have the T-bird finish up it's cycle at the same time the LS does (2007 MY). This is in a large part due to the plant capacity at Wixom Assembly. The body style will not change between now and then, if you want a 4 seater you'll have to wait until (if and when) then nameplate is resurrected.....

Thanks Jade. I'm glad that the 05s will not be the last. That will give me some time.

Can they really wait that long on the LS

In todays market, the design is outdated so quickly.

At intro the LS wasn't a breaking design, it was just breaking for
a Lincoln. Figured they would have to jump sooner considering
the younger market trying to reach.
