top down if its warm, what a baby, my rule is if its above feezing (yes 32) the top goes down. if you want a vert get a SN-95

This is the second 'vert I've owned in my life and still love it. The mustang 'vert is very quiet with top up and the wind and noise is cut somewhat with the top down compared to others i've driven.
The vert is definitely a cruiser. Great on nice days and warm enough in winter.

People I know into performance and racing would never buy it because the coupe has far better body stiffness, less weight, and won't break your neck if you roll it. The government rollover safety requirement do not apply to convertibles. The increased weight and less stiffness comes from not having the roof as a structural element.

The new 'verts don't have much of a problem with stiffness because the new 'stangs were designed with vert in mind from the get go. They do have that 'rollover issue' but its not an issue if you drive carefully. Tracks will allow 'verts on only with a roll bar installed(good idea anyways for racing)
