Ford Thunderbird, 11th Generation

The 11th Generation of Ford’s Thunderbird was offered during model years 2002-2005.

It was styled to be reminiscent of the First Generation of Model years 1955-1957. I think that the connection is lost with the appearance of the headlights and the grille. The original headlights stand and lean forward, creating an appearance of being poised to jump forward. The headlights on the newer version lean backward to create a more passive appearance. The grille on the newer model projects far forward so that the created visage resembles one of being startled and bewildered.
