In my opinion it doesn't make a very attractive convertible. The cpnvertible top looks too long. I still like the hardtop though...

WHY oh WHY do manufacturers still use the cheap vinyl rear "windows"? The Camaro had glass, surely Ford can figure out how to make it with real glass?

I mean, the Porsche Boxster still uses glass, and so does the Z3... It just looks like *** after a few years. Really ruins the look of the car.

That vert looks horrible. No wonder there is only one pic with the top down.

The top Looks like the Toyota Camry Solara convertible top and the rear fenders still scream Honda Accord, IMO.

Although I like the silver show car that was a coupe best...This convertible is nice. I bet they sell a ton of them. I like the look with the top up and down.

It doesn't look too shabby. Ford actually made a Mustang that is attractive again.

Not bad.
A roll bar and a nice set of wheels would really set it off.

All mustang convertibles is recent memory have had glass rear windows.

Like many convertibles, it looks good with the top down.. not as good with it up.
