I am a car enthusiast and i would spec mine out just like this. Ive been driving mustang gts since my first car a 2003gt, 2005gt, 2015gt and i hope to get one the these soon after going to a pickup truck. Theyve all been manual, fastback versions and i would now rather have a convertible and with the added performance benefits i dont see why anyone wouldnt want them (except for the price turning them off)
Also, as a tall Mustang owner I can confirm that I also sit a little higher in the cabin than I’d prefer. Otherwise it’s super comfy and I really enjoy the interior.
Damn, that white with black looks stunning. I know the reviewer doesn't like it, but I think it's pretty striking. It's unique too - I doubt most people get this colour combo.
I feel torn on the new Mustang. As an S550 owner, I didn’t feel like they changed the look enough. It felt more like a refresh than an all new machine. I think the deal killer for me is that the steering is still not great. I was shocked at how numb my steering felt in my Mustang after even comparing it to the giant CX-9. I have loved owning a Mustang, but I definitely want a better handling vehicle for my next (assuming I’m lucky enough to be able to replace it with a performance car and not a van).
I loved the review! Insightful takes on the options and various aspects of the car. I do need some help though…considering a loaded GT premium conv but wondering how people think it would compare to my 2014 Audi RS5 conv. Both have similar hp V8, but coyote has way more torque. Audi has adjustable JHM exhaust, sport brakes, lightweight Vossens wrapped with pilot 4SPS. Does Mustang feel like a “toy” quality-wise? I am afraid of feeling like I would be making a downgrade. My car is 10yrs old now - it is almost new condition - better than new with upgrades and has under 35k on it. Wife hates how low it is…I think I need more of just a car and less German beast. What the hell do I do? Anyone have experience with both an Audi and Mustang? Thanks in advance!
I don't agree that the convertible isn't capable of performance handling. It's opinion not based on data. Run the coupe and convertible on a road course with a pro driver. Then review the results.
I really like the new design. Usually I prefer german cars, but if you want to have a affordable cabrio, with v8 thats the car. But can you remove the antenna on the trunk? That looks like shit...
@@jax1079I think your insights are even more valuable BECAUSE u don’t care for convertibles. Everyone else is like a parade of cheerleaders vomiting fluff for the idiots. Your approach and detail was great (for me). Considering trading a 2014 Audi RS5 conv - would that feel like a downgrade for me? Thanks!

Why the slam on convertibles? What other V8 ragtop options are there? Convertible owners shouldn’t want wider tires and great brakes?

Weirdly, I didn't feel this way in the a Dark Horse (video coming)
@@jax1079 Can’t wait for the Dark Horse!

There's a color combo out there for everyone
As a Mustang girlie the convertible is a must 🥹
Understood 😜
5:50 interrupting yourself lol

This is true. The new Mustang is trading hard on vibes and pageantry, not that there's anything wrong with that, but it does have some imperfections
If it’s not a convertible I don’t want it 🫶🏾😍
I am getting my first Mustang later next year I can't decide on a Convertible or not
Not
The cost of a convertible is why I bought a Dark Horse. Couldn't be happier. Have fun.
Great review!
Did, you happen to mention if you were tall or not? Was that a C5 Corvette you mentioned?
Yes, I'm almost 6'6" and have a C5 😉👍🏻
Good for you!
I just got a vapor blue Gt s650 but I personally wouldn’t ever buy a convertible but there’s nothing wrong with them though.
they didnt upgrade the conv top like the camaro… also hide the cup holders like the 2014…
Unfortunate

Thanks so much! Keep the Audi. Sounds awesome 😈
Wife out of town…..Jax with a mustang…..play ya!!!
Until I underestimated my paleness and got sunburned with the top down 🤣
@@jax1079 ladies response to you in the mustang with your sunburn….”that dude is hot” 😂

Convertibles are inherently less rigid platforms which requires suspension compromises
Walked across the dealer lot and the silver looks the best by far.
I could see that. Definitely not white

Can't argue with that
Why’d you make a video about a convertible if you already had a biased View towards them. this video is very subjective and unhelpful.
Because we don't get to choose the press cars... 🤔
@Dave-senior56 Thanks!!!

@@billpappalardo5568 It would feel like a downgrade 😉👍🏻
I would recommend sunglasses.
Bad for eye tracking. We're a low budget production!
Are you supposed to be daytrading with those dashboard screens 😂
Now that would be a feature 🤣
your hand movements are making me nauseous !
Take some Dramamine
Too much hand movement.
I'll talk with them about that. They have a mind of their own...
Inherently, but again data would settle the question. If there is a large difference then the question is, what needs to be added to stiffen.
@@GeneHillard Most convertibles have additional bracing, but that adds weight
Get a Camaro sits lower.
I much prefer the Camaro as well, personally.
