Wife's new 2016 Ruby Red Convertible ecoboost

Greetings,

My wife just picked up her first Mustang, ever. She has been waiting 18 years. Now she is the only one in the family with a Mustang.

She actually let me drive it....and I must say, not having the 5.0 means nothing. The ecoboost is amazing!

Dark Ceramic
20 in. Wheels
Auto
Sync 3

Pretty much everything else

I always thought the convertibles were better looking than the coupes.

Good luck with it. I have had my 2015 for six months now without any problems. Agree with you assessment of the EcoBoost. The only thing it is lacking is the roar of the 5.0 I like my black interior but the ceramic looks great also.

I have a couple of iPhone interior photos. Hopefully, I will have a couple with the top down and the wife smiling the entire time.

Wind Noise?

I have a '93 Allante and am running out of part sources. Also, the '93 doesn't have the small wing windows the earlier ones had and the wind buffeting can be pretty strong. I can buy a screen for $350 that is supposed to quiet it down but have been noticing how good the new Mustangs look without the parts headaches of a 22 yr. old car.

How is the wind noise for the 2015/16 Mustang convert.? Can you carry on a conversation at 70? Hear the radio? All opinions welcome.

Also, do the new ones rust like the old ones?

Thanks
!

I'm just learning. Are your wife's seats leather or what? TIA
