NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Ford plans to again stop production of its Thunderbird sports car after the current model year ends production in July.

The company has sold more than 55,000 of the roadsters since it brought the storied car back into production with the 2002 model following a three-year gap in production. But sales have been slipping since its reintroduction resulted in sales of 19,085 in 2002.

Sales for the last six months, roughly in line with the roll out of the 2005 models, were 4,522, according to sales tracker Autodata, a drop of 33.7 percent from the same six-month period a year earlier.

Was never a fan of the new bird. It is a boulevard cruiser-not my style. :cry2:

 

Yeah same here, I think its pretty ugly. Its more of an older persons car IMO

 

It was cool to see it come back,but the novalty wore off.The T-Bird was directed to a certain group of people anyways.
