I think I've decided on Windveil blue with the parchment interior but I will need to see all the colors I'm interested in personally. But I can't make up my mind on coupe or vert. I hope it looks good with the top down some verts don't i.e Mini Cooper, PT Cruiser and others. The current Stangs and BMW 3 series look good topless. I live in Texas so cold is no problem but do verts hold in the A/C? Leather seats are also on my list. Though I worry about dirt with the light parchment interior. My plan is coupe or vert till 08 then check out SE's and SVT's. So should I go topless.

 

Sounds like you want a vert, and are just worried about some small stuff that you probably wont care about once the top is down.

 

Think about it...if you thought about it enough to ask the question, then you know you want the vert. Next summer, it'll be here. Get the 'vert!!!

 

Yea but I wanted a hot girl too but after dealing with one for a while they ain't worth the effort give me a plain girl with a good attitude every time.

 

Haha, how about one with essence? *Que Wierd Voice* Mustang... What about one with style? Mustang Do you like fast women? Mustang...

 

If you can use your vert at least 40% of the time, then a vert is worth it. If you use it less than 40% then I don't think $5k more for something you won't use is worth it to me. I live in Florida so in the dead of winter, I'm still using mine. Someone say up north or Northwest (Seattle) probably won't get to use is as much as they want. Now if you do the top down, heater on full blast with the windows up senario..........

 

I have three cars and they are all Verts. Of course, in Southern California we've no shortage of Vert weather. After so many years on a Harley, a Vert just seemed like the obvious choice.

 

It is supposed to be a great vert as the platform was designed especially for it.

However, the vert will be about a second slower than the coupe in the 1/4 mile because of added weight.

 

If you have convertible weather, get a ragtop, no other way to go

 

In '04 the Vert was only 200 lbs give or take heavier than the Coupe. You mean to tell me the '05 Vert is going to be that much heavier that it will be a full second slower than the coupe? My '02 vert is only .3 sec. slower than a '02 coupe.

 

yea ur in texas.......soo get the vert. since i live in NJ theres no point of one cuz ill never use it even tho verts r awesome. i love driving in cars with the top down but since nj sux and i been planning to get a coupe thats what im goin with.

 

Great color choice. That's my favorite, but I want to see one first.

Yes, verts are fine for holding AC in, and they even keep out the rain.

Regardless of where you live, I think verts are great. On those days when you drop the top, there's nothing better. And since I am not a 1/4 mile guy, I could care less if they're slower than a coupe. And I doubt they'll be a second slower.

Get the vert. You'll never regret it.

 

For every 100 lbs., deduct .1 seconds from the e.t.

Thus, 200 lbs. difference equals approximately .2 in the 1/4.

 

I want a special edition so bad for the spring..... :bang:

 

Thanks guys I'll wait till after SEMA and make my final decision that way I can see all the colors and check out any SE

 

Ok, if your gonna get windveil blue you have to get a vert. I'm planning on a windveil blue coupe. We live to close to have similar cars. Actually it'll be ok if you get the coupe since i'm getting dk charcoal interior. We just can't park near each other if we show up at the same place. lol.

 

Cool we can get Blake and have a party

 

I live in New Jersey and I always had verts! I use it with the top down April through october. My best memories are of my friend charlie, who had a 68 mustang vert, And me in my 65 mustang vert. Both with tops down, driving around my high school before classes, in mid january having snow ball fights!.... Geez you don't have to live in LA or florida to have top down fun!
