I have driven Convertibles since 1999 and had my 71 Cougar Convert for 23 years, and have never had any concerns.

I can put the top down for nine months of the year.
For all the points anyone can come up with for not buying a convertible, all you have to say is "maybe so, but the top does go down!"

For the $4,000 difference on the '05, I think it is worth it.
At some point in their life, everyone should own a convertible.

What is the weatherman calling for? I was down in Guelph for the weekend and it was still pretty cool in the mornings.

Have fun tomorrow. (I'm hoping to get "the call" this week sometime)

I've had convertible sports cars since the mid 1960's, but went for a Coupe this time in the GT. I still love a vert on a warm summer evening, but not during the hot days with the burning sun we have had thelast few summers.

Besides, the Coupe is more reminiscent of the 60's Mustangs.

I just saw a Sonic Blue GT with white stripes last night on Spadina Ave. in Toronto. Only saw the back but it looked good. Very "In your face" however.
