I was watching top gear once and they reviewed the crossfire and Jeremy Clarkson said that it looks like "a dog taking a poo." If you look at the shape of it you can clearly see that he's right.
I'm not discounting the Mustang here. Their apples and oranges. There's something to be said about the utilitarian benifit of having a back seat. I could use the car for work if the Fusion were ever out of commission.

The XF coupe does look like a dog taking a crap...but here's a pic of my Roadster.


It was turning heads everywhere it went.

Mustang II > ANY Mopar product... and thats REALLY sad...

i can find MACH 1's up here all day long for 10-11K so IDK they're thinking about asking 15K for the SLOWEST PI new edge ever...

I'm surprised you've actually seen another one. The made very few of them. This alabaster/eggshell is the only 1 I've seen with these colors and it's recieved nothing but praises...until you came along.

I'll keep an eye out for a Mach 1 convertable or a Cobra convertable but admittedly, my confidence in their reliability has been shaken. That window was a $350 repair. Perhaps it wasn't ment to be.

Going with this one I think. It's very different from a Mustang but I really miss my old car.

So you're scared to buy any mustang because that one window motor wasn't working?


I think you deserve to buy that crossfire... Good luck u guess.

I dont think he was talking about the color I think he was talking about the crossfire period but anyway nice car I wouldnt own one personally but thats just me and my taste but its not ugly. And I dont think the Mach1 comes in a vert Im thinking they only come in coupe form.

I could've sworn I saw a mach1 convertible.. but when I thought hard about it I don't think I have. I wouldn't spend 15k on that GT. Just remember, don't let price make you impatient. If you want a good mustang take your time, one will pop up sooner or later and when it does it will make you the happiest man alive. I waited until I found a good GT and now I can't explain how happy I am. I find myself smiling when I'm driving coz I'm genuinely happy with what I waited for. Other terms, the juice is worth the squeeze.
