Reinforcements on convertible top look like stripes
Advice to buyer:
No need for the interior upgrade. The sport package adds the leather steering wheel and shift boot without the chrome panel. The tire upgrade and alarm are a must!
Detailed review:
This car drives exactly like it should. I purchased the 2005 GT 5-speed manual to replace my 1999 Mustang GT Convertible. I really appreciate all the improvments Ford has made. The cockpit is much roomier, the steering is nice and stiff, the clutch is just right and it shifts much smoother than my 99 did. Wouldn't change a thing!
I love my red clearcoat paint and black leather interior. The car turns heads everywhere I go. SWEET!
