Loving the new T-bird, the looks of it anyway, it looks better in person than it did in the pics. It's a seafoam green color, and it's just beautiful. $39,990 is the sticker on it, and they refuse test drives to everyone. I personally wouldn't buy a car if I couldn't drive it first, unless it was a really high-dollar performance car. I mean, dang, the Navigators outside cost more than $40,000! Oh well, it's beautiful nonetheless! Check one out if you haven't already seen them in person!

 

They look cool, but no test drive what a ripoff.

 

That's plain dumb. My local Chrysler dealer allows test drives of their Prowlers and Vipers! I'm not saying they let anybody test them, but if you're serious and they know you got the bucks, it's not a problem.

There are vehicles on the Ford lot that cost a hell of a lot more than the new T-bird. There are a lot of SUVs that cost a lot more than the T-bird. Shoot. I bet there's a good chance that there are used cars on the lot that are worth as much or more.

 

I agree Dennis, Its like they think this thing is like a cobra R or something.

 

Yeah, remember, that dealers gonna sell that Thunderbird, its brand new and likely to pull 3-5K over sticker, not 10% under. How many Thunderbirds do you see? How many Navigators do you see?That is, as long as it doesn't have 300 miles on it. Are you serious or would it be joy-riding on a test drive?

Most of the time, the car is already sold, dealers took up to $5000 deposit 2 yrs ago to get on their list and if I had that much cash tied up in a Tbird, I wouldn't take delivery if it had alot of miles on it. Would you? They just don't know who on the list wants that particular vehicle, first on the list decides first, second next and down the line.
