I only drive them in the summer so convertibles are the only way to go. Top goes down when I take it out of storage in April and usually stays down until October unless we get caught in the rain.

Love the Fastbacks, but not having a roof in the summer is the only way to roll.

I like driving a convertible but with the mustang it doesnt look as good as the coupe and fastback forms.

Hah, my name says it all. I am especially into fastbacks. I plan on looking for one to mess around with when I get out of af tech school. But thats months down the road.

How about a little bit of both? I can't give a decisive answer since I like specific coupes and fastbacks.

64/5-66 coupes
67-68 fastbacks
69 fastbacks
71-73 fastbacks
then it all sucked until 1999 (I somewhat lie... I do like the king cobra mustang II)... and it started to rock heavy when the 2005 came out.

I never liked topless cars. To much weight and to much wobble.
