I’m out here in the valley(AZ) so I’m looking for a convertible, nothing like taking a trip down to the lake with windows down can’t imagine how much nicer in a convertible
Good review, but, I have to say that I would have spent my money on the convertible top before spending it on any other performance things. Before o bought my mustang I had done some research and discovered that these convertible tops had problems around the rear window so I immediately had the top replaced with an upgraded material and it has lasted 14 years and still looks like new. O have a friend that had his 4.6 L engine replaced with a 5.0 L and it's much faster than mine and sounds a lot better too. Keeping it stock is a good idea though, I believe this car will be a collectable sooner than later. The body style was well thought out and has easily seen elements of the 1967 and 1969 mustang's which in my opinion were two classics.
knowing what I know now I would have probably purchased a new top and installed it myself which comes out to about $600. I did take it in for a quote on a new top and this shop offered to do it for like $2200 at the time which I just didn't want to put into the car. I hope you enjoyed the video ☺️
Hey your comment about not being too crazy about the convertible top made me wonder if they made nice hardtops for convertible Mustangs that could make the convertible look like a regular coupe. And low and behold they do make them! Here's one I found: www.smoothline.com/mustang-2005-hardtop If I had a convertible I'd probably go with something like that 'cause I don't really like the look of the rag top either.
I noticed when driving newer models like the 07 and 08 they had lots more features. I’m not sure if these features came later or my car just didn’t have the packages that those features came with. 05 was the first year of the s197 style so these may have just been added on in later years
Hey I’m looking at one 2005 it’s a convertible and an automatic it’s in great shape and it’s stock and it’s an gt. I in az so I want a convertible is it reliable and is that automatic reliable?
