Satisfied owner
The car has performed flawlessly with absolutely no service requirements other than oil changes in the 15,000 miles I have driven it. The only problem I have encountered is hitting my head on the hardtop as I enter the car when it is on. The car attracts much admiring attention from both young and old wherever we go. Trunk could be bigger, but it does haul two suitcases plus several small packages.
Black Knight
It a very nice looking car. Always feel awesome riding in this TBird. This car was my husband's toy. I could not drive it cause I'm too short and can't quite reach the pedals without using big pillows to sit on and put me forward. Of course I did not try to drive it. I consider this car to be in excellent condition. My husband had the convertible soft top repaired (by Sure-Fit $895); purchased an AM/FM 6 Disc Indash changer ($399.90) and paid for installation ($84); purchased floor mats ($73.90); TBird soft boot flaps ($247.18) Hard top wrench ($34.45) ; extra key cut and program ($87.04); TBird hard top cart with custom made cover for TBird hard top ($219.64); TBird electric winch hoist ($374.06); Cockpit trim package includes premium hardtop protection trim, and premium top door trim ($226.55). My husband took pride in this car and enjoyed it tremendously. Hope new owner will take care of this beauty.

Hanzies T-Bird
We purchased this car on E Bay...it had 1401 miles on it..we flew to NY, saw the car, took it around the block and purchased it. I'm 5'8'' and my wife is 5'4''...we are about as tall as a new T-bird owner should be. We love the T-Bird, however, it has limited trunk space. We drove the car back to Panama City Beach Florida and had a great trip.
Not as good as it looks
After owning the car for almost 3 years, it is fun to drive for sure, a head turner, but it has it's hand in my back pocket constantly. In the shop almost every 3 k miles for something or other. Electrical problems, look at replacing the battery every year. And now, for a car that's never been raced, Adult owned, a major oil leak at the main seal that would require an engine pull out. This car has 11,000 miles on it. I will live with the leak I guess and just drive the car into the ground. Ultimately disappointed.
You gotta love it!
This car is wonderful. Lots of power, great road feel, comfortable on a trip and a great roadster feel. The only problem I've had is the multi-disc changer and I'm sure that'll be fixed shortly. Ford put a lot of thought in this retro. I think they could have done a little better on the front end design, but it is still a beautiful car and I love to drive it. and even just look at in the garage. It is a member of the family!
