A 2002 Thunderbird was driven in the Bond film Die Another Day by Bond girl Halle Berry (Jinx).  In the spring of 2003. Ford sold 700 limited edition 007 Ford Thunderbirds to commemorate the first appearance of a Thunderbird in the 40-year history of the James Bond film franchise.

The Coral paint. similar to the Sunset Coral hue offered on the 1956 Thunderbird. matches the bikini Berry wears in her role as Jinx.  The car in the movie had a coral hard-top instead of the white top offered with the special edition and was a 2002 model. not the 2003 that the 007 edition comes as.

The Limited Edition 007 Thunderbird features unique coral paint. 21-spoke chrome wheels. performance white seats and interior accents. with an understated "007" badge placed on the instrument panel. Each vehicle also will feature a numbered. commemorative plaque mounted on the inside of the glove box.

Apparently 694 cars were actually sold. and 6 only used for show.

Price in 2003: $43. 95  

Ford had a sweepstakes for an 007 to go along with the opening of the "Die Another Day" movie.   It ended December 2002.   The first cars were officially  "bucked" right after Christmas and started appearing in dealer's showrooms by mid January. 2003.   Production ot the 007 ended sometime in March.   All 700 were built and some were prepped early for shows in Europe.

This limited editon features chrome 21-spoke wheels just like the Neiman Marcus editions had for 2002.   The seats are a solid "performance white" colored leather.   The doors are trimmed with white "wings" and the lower part of the dash is white. There is a "007" badge on the metal trim across the dash above the glove box.   The hardtop color is "performance white. "  The steering wheel and shift knob are covered with "black ink" leather. a departure from the other "full accent" interiors.   The transmission has the select shift automatic (an 03 option) and the 3. 9L. 280hp engine which is standard for the 2003.   Each 007 car has their own special plaque in the glove box. serializd from 001 to 700.

 MSRP was $43. 95

60 cars were rumored to be going to the European market. Not sure if that happened.

*Another bit of trivia - The color code CQ is also a Morse Code abbbreviation.    I suppose to go along with the spy theme for the car.    Interesting that some of the special color codes and body codes for the Thunderbird have alternate meanings.
