Default convertibles

i was just wondering how much heavier they are, if any than a normal coupe? also which ones come with the white top?? i have seen some yellow ones with a white top and they look the best i think. i was wondering if any other colors came with white tops, and what year do the yellow ones come with white tops.

generally the convertibles are a little heavier. But what year are u talking about? Ive seen some with different color tops, but I think those are custom.

It a b!tich to keep clean tho. i had the tan roof back when i had a 95GT and even that was a b!tch. Black is a nice looking easy to keep clean top.

I don't have any trouble keeping mine clean. You gotta scotch guard that bad boy, then the dirt, dust, leaves, bird poo, everything just rolls right off with a shot of water. Hell a good rain while I'm driving will make my top shine like new, but then again it's only about 9 months old

My 96 is 3400 lbs. i had green with a tan top but recently change to the black, tinted windows, the look is totally different.
a vert is def slower, but has it advantages too.
take a look at mine....http://stangsource.com/rides.cgi?vehicle=664
