Dude, I feel your dad's pain. The first two year, I never drove the stang in the rain. But I moved to Wetshington State and rain here is like air...can't do without.

Wow, I'm shocked it's still in one piece!! Normally when rain touches a mustang it automatically dissolves into tiny little pieces and rendered useless. This is truly remarkable.

What's with the cobra next to the mustang???
Ha, I notice it has the rain deflectors on the windows, kinda crazy seeing they haven't gotten much usage...

BTW Those wheels on the car are awesome!

Car looks great! Those wheels are looking good...I love the rear window louver, but I'm not sure how vision is going to be when I'm inside the car looking out. Would you happen to have any pics from inside the car looking out the back window?

I've only driven twice in the rain, and I almost got stuck in it yesterday!

Your girl is wise.

Hey if I could keep the stang in the garage at all times and only bring it out when the weather would be ideal, I so would.

But I can't. I'd go nuts if I couldn't drive this thing nearly every day.

From my experience in the rain, it pours into the interior in any rain. I hate that I can't even crack the window in rain.

well right, but the OP said the car has only seen rain twice so those rain deflectors get used like once every 2 years... hence not really serving a purpose...

Talking Solved the Rain Problem

This weekend I solved the problem of never being able to drive in the rain.
I bought a second S197 Mustang.
Does that mean that I have finally gone off the deep end?

They look like Boss 338s....and they're very, very nice (as is your dad's car!)




Here's a set on my favourite '10 to date.....belong's to BlazeOne




When I first got my car, I tried my hardest not to use it in the rain but living in England means it'd only get used for 2 weeks in every year
