"Cons: No side curtain airbags or stability control, seats could use more lateral support"

Excuse me...

MOSTLY STUPID.

Thank you. Now with commentary for that:

Exactly how good are side airbags in a CONVERTIBLE? Inflatable roll cage maybe...

And as for the lateral support, yeah, let's do that, let's put in those gigantic side wings on the seats like they had in '89 Thunderbird SCs and those awful Recaros. That'll make the ladies happy, and the big men too. There is a reason those things aren't there anymore, dummies. Buy it as an option or something.

Stability control is always welcome. So that'd be the only Con I agree with.

If that's as bad as it gets, Mustang Convertible 2005+ is the b0m0rs!!!

/I'm not a reviewer. But I stayed in my own house last night!

Yeah, that got me thinking about an ad in the paper I saw once that advertised a convertible with t-tops. Or a sunroof. Either one. That'd be way useful, yeah?
