Dealers are still offering discounts on new '24s and there's a reasonable inventory of GTs. This is just your 90-day warning to make some moves happen if you don't want to eat the price increase.
It's a buyer's market for Mustangs at least through the end of 2024.
GT Performance Package - $5,295
60th Anniversary and Brembo Brakes - $5,990
Since the convertible gets the frame bracing and sway bars from the PP already, and can't option the DH spoiler, I think it's well-suited to the 60th anniversary.
I figure by the time that would be an issue to where a quick wipe with a cotton swab wouldn't remove the "dirt seam" - it would be time to replace the protector anyway.
Xi Jinping, not that it matters.
If Ford really wanted to make more affordable Mustangs, they wouldn't be leaving FRAP at 30% capacity, or subsidizing $132000 per EV sold from their ICE sales. Ford Corporate made those decisions.
If I was ordering a convertible this year, I'd be tempted, I like the look of the wheels. Vapor Blue, space gray interior, 60th anniversary package, throw on some Brembo brakes and the active valve exhaust.
For a coupe, it seems like a rough deal, the GT Performance Package is cheaper, and...
Depends if it's a track-ready convertible.
Integrated rollbar with brake light? Dark Horse spoiler installed not "deleted"? If they make a Mustang Spyder, I'd be interested.
EDIT - By which I mean "Mustang Roadster", not a Lovecraftian horror :wink:
Sad. May be worth checking the Ford site (put in different zip codes + 100 mile range) and checking dealer sites, there are some built GT Verts with MagneRide.
What exterior color are they after? I'm assuming trifecta (PP, MagneRide, Active Valve), interior color is probably going to be black...
All good, it's being built. All the MagneRide and Brembo equipped vehicles got grouped together in that same window; there's at least one Dark Horse being built.
Why not?
There's no substitute for the top-down driving experience. When the first cool air of Fall rolls down the Blue Ridge mountains, when you can hear the crunch of leaves on Tail of the Dragon - what's not to love?
The Performance Package and MagneRide are appreciable on those mountain...
The system itself is fine, it's just the subwoofer that's "meh". If you're an audiophile you can opt for the 9-speaker system, or an aftermarket subwoofer. Thankfully, it's easy to access the subwoofer in the trunk.
Gotta' remember to put the air quotes around "safety" when you're talking about Toyota.
Yes, you can adjust the follow distance. I'm not a fan of cruise control, but I have to admit Ford, BMW, and Porsche seem to have it figured out.
Hahaha! Midnight shift, you're a wild one: FRAP's only got one shift. I was gonna laugh at the idea of getting a wake up call, but I actually did get a phone call today confirming that my car is on the assembly line.
