2003 Saleen Thunderbird-Bonspeed
This is kinda cool
"What works for the Mustang should be good for the T-Bird, right? At least Steve Saleen thinks so. So the Southern California-based specialty builder has created his own interpretation of Ford's 2-seater. The Saleen Thunderbird-Bonspeed Edition boasts a supercharged version of Ford's 3.9-liter V8 that develops about 350 hp and 370 ft.-lb. of torque. The car is available with either Ford's 5-speed automatic or a Saleen 6-speed manual transmission. Saleen does more than add power, he adds cornering and stopping abilities as well. His T-Bird gets special springs and shocks, and is available with an optional Saleen limited-slip differential and Brembo front brakes. The car rides on 18-in. Bonspeed alloy wheels and Pirelli P-Zero tires. Visual touches include an extended nose with a billet grille, lower rockers and redone rear fenders. Contact Saleen Performance Parts at 949-597-4900.--D.C."

As for it screaming 60 year old woman, I hope you don't like any car made in the 50s 60s or 70s, no GTOs nope they all scream i \m 60 and need to relive my childhood. Its built to have a retro look for those who want a retro look. I like it, i was born in the 80s. I guess I need to relive my childhood
