Please
Really good video man.
Thanks Benjie!
Thank you soo much for the video man.. I felt like I was in there with you 😂😂😂😎super detailed too keep it up man
Hah that's great! Glad you enjoyed it!
@@CarsWithSteve getting a mustang but not convertible its going to be a shelby
@@christiansamazingvideos3682 Yeah you are! That's a great car
@@CarsWithSteve okay I'm getting both the shelby and convertible
@@christiansamazingvideos3682 Post some reviews and share the links if you do!
Awesome video
Thanks Juliano!
Effortless In Every Way. Mine Has The 5.0 Coyote Engine. You Hear The Exhaust, But The Engine Is Super Quiet.
Overall Exquisite Gentleman’s Touring, Luxurious Sports Convertible!🧡❤️
That’s a really great way to describe the sound Gerald! Glad you’re enjoying your convertible! Hopefully you’ve had a chance to take it out
Trying to decide on fastback or convertible…. Both are so damn sweet !
They really are! If you're going to ever look at taking it on a track go for the fastback. The convertible is pretty fun though
looks great! would've been nice if it was the manual. love hearing that v8 sound
Right? I'm a big fan of the 6 speed too. Active valve in the Mustang is such a great feature
A VERY PROFESSIONAL VIDEO.
YOU STATED THAT THE REAR SEATS FOLDED DOWN IN THE CONVERTIBLE???
IS THIS NEW FOR 2022 NEVER BEFORE IN THE CONVERTIBLE BUT IN THE HARD TOP . PLEASE COMMENT. THANKS
Good catch. Folding rear seats are in the coupe not the convertible - even in the 2022. Unless you’re looking at the Mach E 😉
It’s all your fault. 😂
I bought a ‘21 convertible, Carbonized Grey, same package as your video car with the blue stitching and an exterior black stripe. Oh my! ❤
HAHA! Great build choice, I love that blue stitching. When did you pick yours up?
Nice video
Thanks 🙏
@@CarsWithSteve your welcome
Just ordered mines. Biggest debate was convertible or fastback
And well
I opted for an antimatter blue manual with blue stitching, fully loaded of course :) gets here DEC or JAN. Definitely the last v8 pony for God knows how long
Great call on the Antimatter Blue with that blue stitching, it's such a great combo! Guessing because you're on this video that you went with the convertible? :P
@@CarsWithSteve no I wanted it to but since I’m in the Los Angeles, CA I need the extra roof security 😅
@@au_kryptosilverstacking6576 Ahh that makes sense. Hope you love it when it shows up! Think you'll do any aftermarket work it it?
@@CarsWithSteve most definitely 🙏🏽 first order of business
New shifter😅
@@au_kryptosilverstacking6576 Nice! If you end up shooting some videos on it drop some links when it's live
I got better tires on my 2018, Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S tires. MagneRide is awesome along with the Torsen differential.
Curious Kheireddine have you had Pzero tires on your Mustang as well? Forums people are a 50/50 on which they prefer but apparently the Pilot 4s has a floating style feel for the first few months until they're broken in
@@CarsWithSteve It came with Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S tires. Great rubber, I still have good tire thread after 25,000 km.
Canadian fuel is possibly the worst in the world. It is disgusting knocking is a huge issue especially when climbing into the Rocky mountains. Had to use octain boosters in the Indian. Not required in the USA Australia Europe or other countries.
Love this Mustang. That interior wow!. Nice review
Thanks! I've heard the same thing from people who are in EU or Australia. 95 min octane in other parts of the world and anything above 93 is next to impossible to find in Canada.
@@CarsWithSteve We even have 98! in Australia. Love the options you have especially that red interior wow. But at least we can buy a factory designed and built right hand drive Mustang here which is a huge improvement over an after market conversion. Mustangs have been hugely successful in Australia although most buy the coupe. Cheers
The cars must love that 98! Definitely a trade off between North American and EU builds though, we have way more options out this way. The RHD conversion would be great! A guy in a local car club has a Skyline R34 which I've always been a fan of
What was the price for this one specifically fully loaded??
Full build is in the description but this one was:
$67,490 Canada / $59,785 USA
Looks like I could a couple carry suit cases in that trunk! Im shocked. Thats good
Right? It's a surprising amount of space in the trunk of the Mustang
@@CarsWithSteve I would love to see a review on the longevity of the top its self
Good idea for a future video!
HELP! Got my convertible 21 eco premium. When bringing top back up, there is a 2.5 inch gap to complete the closing. Therefore I need too pull down 2.5 inches before turning handle too lock. Too stiff for me too pull down. Witnessed dealer needing to put left hand on roof while pulling lever and needing too bring body off seat to accomplish. Note: when releasing the handle lock to prepare to push button to put roof down.. the top pops up 2.5 inches. Rented identical car this summer and no problem! Took vin to dealer and had car built. Dealer states car is working as it should even though I can’t close. Went to dealer today they had gt on lot and it reacted same as my car! Contacted ford and my rep doesn’t buy its right. One more visit to a different dealer service and I’m asking them too but it back. I CANNOT close the roof myself and you need too be a gorilla or bench 100 to accomplish this feat.
It’s wild that the roof is giving you so much trouble! I found that it takes a good tug to get it to drop to the point where you can latch it shut.
If you’re having to throw your entire body weight into closing it there’s something up. Curious what happens at the other dealer
I wish you could show us how easy it is for you too put roof up and lock it?? Thanks
I’ll see if I can dig out some old footage for a cleaner open/close demo
It takes about 5 seconds from the time u press the button til you twist the lock
I got second hand excitement from his expression 😄
Haha it’s hard not to smile in a convertible 😜
Loved the video.👍
Recently Traded my truck for a GT convertible! Very happy with it. 😃
Thanks and what a trade!! Glad you're loving the convertible so far. First time owning a Mustang?
@@CarsWithSteve We had a loaner car, Ecoboost Mustang convertible 2 years ago.
Wife loved it, so been looking for one since then.
Btw,
Love your reactions in the video!…Its how I felt trying the different modes on our GT.😃
@@MrJohnnyArcher Haha thanks! I've heard a lot of people say they rented or loaned one and fell in love with it!
The GT is a beast before you do any work. And glad I'm not the only one who reacts that way when the top is down!
It’s all fun and games until you need too close the roof
I have the feeling that this is the last Mustang with a V8. The next Gen will probably have a hybrid V6. To prevent engine knock, 89 octane is not enough, mine runs perfectly on 94 octane from Petro-Can.
I’m really curious what Ford’s plan is for the 2023. Apparently 2022 will be the last year in the current platform
I can see a hybrid or fully electric being announced for it - maybe EcoBoost / V8 / Hybrid. I think Ford could pull from the Explorer and do a 2.3 Hybrid
I heard Ford is dialing the HP back a little in the next gen by 10HP.
@@AStanton1966 I read a few things saying that as well because of increase emission standards. Carbon offset probably.
But a simple stage 1 tune or even a simple cold air intake will fix that and then some
Not, for mine!! Great car
You were wrong lol
Bring to papa house
haha
When you live in the Netherlands and it will cost 120000 :(
Wow, that's wild! Is that 120k for the GT convertible? It sounds like there may be a good market for importing these things!
@@CarsWithSteve there are only a few riding here! The 70k added is co2 tax (BPM)
@@ryonnl wow that's a surprising tax. Do you know if that's the same on new and used?
@@CarsWithSteve it's only paid on import and new cars. Used cars not, because the tax has already been paid by the initial owner. But they of course keep that in mind when selling.
But if I want to import a car from let's say Germany, I need to pay it as well, and otherwise it's paid through the dealer.
But the argument can be made that we are already paying co2 tax for it through gas. Its 2.34 per liter for 98 (93 in US). More than half of the gas price is tax.
@@ryonnl That's a bit of a kick down under hah. Huge tax on the car being brought in and then huge fuel tax.
I'm really curious what the dealer markup is like there now and if there's a demand for these cars
It's the year 2021 and the convertible top still has that stupid handle to twist it open. Seriously Ford WTF?
Haha and a CD player! I can't see that going away in the 2024 redesign either
Automatic?!?!?! 🤢
Haha it's way of the future unfortunately, especially with EVs becoming the norm
Drive a 10 speed car then get back to me. Promise you'll be in love
@@r6master69 Exactly! It's a great ride either way in the Mustang
