I'm not too concerned about staying warm inside the car.. Fords have pretty good heaters.

I'm concerned about driving on ice & snow with 260hp. I doubt the traction control will be quick enuf to save my bacon each time the wheels wanna spin..

Mustangs are not good winter cars at all. If you can help it don't drive in the snow or ice.

greystang if you going to get a beater for the winter i would suggest getting either a front wheel drive or 4x4.. i had a tacoma 2 wheel drive with snow tires and my friend had a honda civic with no chains on and he did circles around me in the snow.. talk about me wanting to drive that truck over the edge of the cliff..

No sweat these days with the modern materials and the fact all newer convertibles are now fully lined and insulated on the inside.
