Convertibles do weigh more, and they are taller, catching more resistance. But a 14.5 stock convertible is still pretty impressive.

if you do decide to go with the conv. get subframe connectors before you invest in too much HPbecause i have seen them get warped all to hell on a mostly stock enginewithout reinforcementyou'll wanna have them welded on also because bolting them weakens the frame via drilling

umm...you can always special order a car to you exact specifications. If a dealership wants you business, they will take care of you. I S/O'd mine, so I am not just pulling this one out of my @$$.

The only reason I mention this is that i was thinking about a convertible and all i can find are automatics. Any help would be great<IMG src=smileys/smiley1.gif border="0">

u have had a v-6 for 5 years and are saying that the 2003 GT are slow?!?!?! the only reason why u would think that theyareslow is because the engine has not been broken in yet when u test drove it, 0-60 in5.5-5.7 is what a stock GT does, that is not slow at all, and the dealer is all BS, 5 speed are MUCH faster than auto, o and BTW thre is no such thing as a 2002 Cobra, i think u meant 2001.</P><edited><editID>2002 Stang GT</editID><editDate>37905.047662037</editDate></edited>
