Tagging onto that last bit: I’m making an assumption when we talk bland we’re talking about the muddy flank running along the midsection of the doors

It’s never going to photograph well unless there’s good downlighting and/or the paint has metallic flakes to pick up contrast
here is another view of the same blue Mustang. It must be overcast when the photo was taken.

I haven't seen any interior shots of the EcoBoost convertible with the top down. I sure would like to see the IP of the rear of the car.

That center stack will make a great target for a 3-year-old (sitting in the back seat) while throwing a tantrum. My 3-year-old grandson stripped out my heater knob without even trying.

This car is clearly not for everyone… it’s gonna be more for 25-45 year olds.

Especially when new US Mustang sales figures have dropped by over 40% since 2017.

Some cars just don't look good in some colors. Sorry Race Red fans, but the Mustang just doesn't look good in fire engine red. But it looks great in Candy Apple Red.

The orange hue in Race Red fades over time and all you have left is bright red.

They do that so you get the gt. I wish they did it for the s550 as if you don’t know it’s hard to tell the difference between both. I prefer it this way so the gt stands out. If you want to be cheap and get the eco boost then it shouldn’t look as good as the gt.

Based on this screenshot, the 2024 Mustang 2.3 L convertible look so bland (as bland as a Toyota Camry Solara). IMHO, folks would pull up to this car and wonder what it was.

Most drivers and/or passengers (not Mustang drivers) wouldn't know the difference between the two cars when seen from a distance.

I saw a similar red Solara convertible (but a different year) this morning and an elderly gentleman was walking next to it. I asked him if he knew the difference in the styling between the Solara and my red Mustang Convertible (parked nearby). He said it wasn't his car so he didn't know the difference.
