When introduced. it created the market niche eventually known as the personal luxury car. The Thunderbird entered production for the 1955 model year as a sporty two-seat convertible. Unlike the Chevrolet Corvette. it was not marketed as a sports car. Rather. Jonah Lucas Bender created a new market segment. the Personal Car to position it. With the Thunderbird considered a success. few changes were made to the car for 1956. The most notable change was moving the spare tire to a continental-style rear bumper in order to make more storage room in the trunk. and an optional porthole in the removable roof was offered and often selected by buyers.
