I'm unsubing from this. So much bias towards coupes, 0 understanding of what a convertible actually is.
Roof loweres in under 12 seconds which is actually very, very fast.
You get wind noise? NO SHIT SHERLOCK.
You need to slow down to put the top down! Do you even understand the damage that can be done if you basically put what acts as a parachute at 50mph?
Interior sucks? well don't get the most basic version of the car.
No room in the back? I sit in the front, why would I need the space in the back!
Look dude, I've driven ONLY cabrio cars since my first car ever. We don't care about back leg room, we don't care how the bloody interior looks.
WE CARE ABOUT THE WIND NOISE AND THE ENGINE SOUND.
Does a biker care if he has no room in the back seat, or his windshield is made out of plastic - no.
Learn the target group for these cars and look at it from their perspective. Convertibles are a completely separate group of cars, and you can't compare them to coupes and limousines.

Such a shame, looks decent, but i still prefer the late 60's models, same with the Corvettes, and we all know American build quality is poor, cheap plastics and poor fit and finish, obviously Americans don't care about that kind of stuff, they just want a noisy engine! Stick to European sports cars, at least they are built so much better.

Meh, this chap really does not understand this particular model. I completely disagree especially with the end, It should be a -buy it. - I am an owner of one and know how much fun this car is and how the four cylinder out performs all but the stoutest V8's out there while getting decent gas mileage. Home run Ford!

And if you buy this halo car for the Ford brand, you get the -honour- to drive around in the only car on the market, which Euro NCAP have scored only 2 stars in its crashtest in recent years. Its even worse than cars like the Fiat Doblo, which scored 3 stars. So well done Ford, great job. Or something.

I don't know. I have a '17. Love it. Interior is very nice. I have a friend that has a -loaded- Mini. This is a head scratcher. Talk about cheap plastic! Maybe Mini is making the interiors on the Mustangs sent to the EU? The tip-off? : The steering wheel is on the wrong side for crying out loud!

This exact car costs 160000 British Pounds in my country with the taxes and excise duties That's the tax for a mere 2. 3 litres engine, and the taxes increase exponentially as you approach higher engine capacity, and there's a 800 percent tax on 5000cc Engines. :)
The country is Bangladesh.

I think Ford Mustangs only problem is they didn-t pay Matt enough to like it. I currently have this same car as a hire car and I think it-s great. Granted the roof catch is a little old school but otherwise I can-t fault it. Will be heading to the Ford dealer on my return for sure!

He doesn't seem like he understands why people get convertibles. If we wanted a Mustang GT to whiz around a track and to drift in we wouldn't have bought a convertible. It's like reviewing a forklift and saying it would be better if could hold dirt like a dump truck.

You know what - it's time for every reviewer to learn - YOU DON'T BUY A CONVERTIBLE TO BE THE FASTEST AND THE BEST AT CORNERING SO STOP JUDGING THE CAR BASED OFF OF THE COUPE - IT'S A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT CAR. Bloody hell you people, do your homework.

All the journos say go 5. 0. Why?
Cos they get free fuel for the test drives and literally get off on anything with a V8 under the bonnet.
For the UK market it makes so much sense to go V8 especially with the amount of remaps out there
