Default 2012 V6 Convertible

Hello everyone,
I am new to this forum, obviously, and I am going to buy a 2012 3.7 Stang tomorrow, if the test drive goes well. Can anyone tell me about the reliability of these cars, or anything else in general?

Thanks

Only thing I noticed with my 2012 vert. Is, when it rains, I get water in the trunk wheel well. It is always in the garage, and my second car, so it very rarely sees rain. But when a surprise shower comes,(in Fl. It’s every day in the summer) I just remove the drain plug.

I have a 2012 coupe that I bought a year ago with 104,000 miles. In a year I put 20,000 on it and have only noticed a low antifreeze level which occurred this weekend. So with that mileage, if all I have to do is replace a water pump, which I will do myself, then I would say that's pretty good.

Heck yeah, that would be considered doing good.

I am trading a 2002 Camaro with 74k miles, awesome condition, especially considering it is 17 years old. The Mustang has 90k miles, but I am taking it home for a good test drive, and so I can look it over really good.
