I'm not a car salesman, but I know part of what moves Mustangs is how traditional they are.

’m not a car salesman, but I know part of what moves Mustangs is how traditional they are. When you sign on the dotted line, you buy into the 50+-year history of the car that the Blue Oval’s marketers and engineers have managed to bolt into the S550.
As technologically advanced (no more tape decks!) and modernly powered as the new Mustang is, it’s fundamentally similar to its old school ancestors. For example, take a look at the video below, which features a 1966 convertible with the 289-cubic-inch V8. Ford promotes the ragtop ‘Stang as a vehicle that gives drivers a feeling of adventure.
That hasn’t changed. Several years ago, I spent some time behind the wheel of a black-on-black New Edge GT and felt as if I was a drug dealer (pretending you might get arrested any second is good for a thrill or two). I recently drove all around Austin with my girlfriend in the 2015 5.0 convertible and the two of us had our very own Miami Vice moment. We even played this song at night when we had the top down.
Flashback Friday! Take note of the beautiful flowing white scarf on the driver. But our favorite is the "sterosonic tape player". Fred is indeed a happy '66 convertable Mustang driver.
