Has anyone had opportunity to check out rear headroom in the vert with top up? I would imagine it is substantially better than the coupe. How are other rear seat proportions compared to the coupe?? How does the inside of the top appear when viewed inside the closed car? Does it seem to be a tight and well finished job?????

 

As if it wasnt hard enough for me to decide on a color now this!!!!!! coupe.......vert.......coupe........vert.......... coupe........

 

I'm going to agree with the naysayers on this one. The Mustang completely loses its styling edge by hacking off the fastback roofline. It just looks like a blocky convertible instead of something special. Just my .02...

 

Ouch baby, really ouch. .02 is right

 

i agree i think it takes away from the new/old look that they got oh so right, nothing wrong with the vert though just doesn't have that retro look IMO

 

I definitely feel it loses something too - not MY cup of tea but not bad really...

Alhtough just saw the pictures of the screaming yellow with the Bullitts - now THAT looks 10 times better than the torch red one for some reason....

Hott!!!

 

I just unscrew it and put the cover on, then reverse in the morning...

Did that with my 88 for years - really only takes an extra 10 seconds tops....

 

Very accurate review though

My thoughts exactly. I think the rear quarter windows add so much to the retro look. The vert just doesn't look as mean. Now if they came out with a removeable hard-top, I might be interested.

BTW, I don't know what color combos are being offered, but there's a red car w/a white top here in town, and I don't think it looks very attractive. The white detracts from the car. Black and tan seem like better options for a vert top color.

 

you can only get Balck or Tan tops. No white available

 

There are no fanblades availiable either...that doesn't mean that they aren't out there though! Could be an '06...I wonder what the interior looks like....perhaps like ICAP with white instead of red. That'd be so pimp!

 

How are you folks getting build dates on Verts? I ordered mine on December 10, and have no update on any build date.

 

There are no build dates as of yet.
I was just told that i am UNSCH/CLEAN.
Will get serial# on or around feb 2.
April delivery due to quality assurance.

You must have an order #.

 

I do have an order number (four (4) digit number), but when I called Ford Customer Service, they could not locate it.

 

You have to bug your salesman.
Whick I am good at ;-) JK steve.
If he is an honest guy he will keep you informed weekly.

 

Weekly, as opposed to daily!?

I'm not that bad am i?
Remember when you ordered your first new stang. I'll say no more ;-)
Once the DORA, serial# and build date come in order, then I will be happy and ulcer free!!!!! My pain is in your hands. :worship:

 

So If Ford Is offering the IUP , they must have to plans on more stock or relocation of said stock for this Launch of the convertible, as well they are advertising the My Color so must be all hope is not lost, would be nice if Ford were to just spell it out

 

here are some photos i took of the vert at the L.A. Auto Show
