Nice! Not that I'd ever buy a 'vert, but nice!

Hmm...looks like EleanorsMine is going to have an even longer wait!
I HAVE HAVE HAVE HAVE TO HAVE HER!!

Imagine me and you I do

I think about you day and night

It's only right

To think about the girl you love

And hold her tight

So happy together

If I should call you up invest a dime

And you say you belong to me

And ease my mind

Imagine how the world could be

So very fine

So happy together

I can see me lovin' nobody but you

For all my life

When you're with me baby the skies'll be blue

For all my life

Me and you and you and me

No matter how they toss the dice

It had to be

The only one for me is you

And you for me

So happy together

I can see me lovin' nobody but you

For all my life

Very nice pics. Thanks!

I too though, would prefer the coupe. I think the reason I like the 05 is that it has that classic fastback look and I think that's lost in the vert. Still very nice, but IMO the coupe is the way to go.

I'm suprised that no one has commented on the way the top folds. If you look closely you will see that it folds with the exterior facing out (ala boxter, mr2). No need for a boot. A Ford rep told me about this at the innovation drive. He also said they would offer a tonneau cover as well.
Yep, just the way Hau said it would!

TMS: Will the convertible have a hard boot?
HTT: No, but the top will fold differently than before. Instead of folding back onto itself so you see the underside of the top when it's folded, it's a 'Z' fold.

I love the hard cover it makes.
it looks better than any SN-95 hard boot, and you don't have to put it on or take it off!

Please do not flame me but I just don't like it. The vert looks all off to me.

I love the coupe though and will have one in my garage sometime this coming year.

Looks great! My thoughts:

• Top looks great folded
• Headrest angle looks a little odd. I know they're no different than the coupe, but they are more pronounced in the 'vert.
• Without the fastback roof, the rear 1/4 is a bit plain. Anyone else missing the classic hips now?

I'll personally be forking over the dough for the fastback.
