2003 Ford Mustang GT Convertible Centennial Edit review from North America
"A big bang for the buck!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing major to this point. It has a few minor defects. One of these defects is a creaking in the rear area where the top folds down. The other defect is a small gap in between the front and rear window on the driver's side.
General comments?
This car is an absolute blast to drive. The power is sometimes overwhelming (especially when coming from a Jeep TJ).The ergonomics leaves something to be desired. With the driver's seat 3/4 of the way back you cannot reach the stereo. One of the best things about these cars is the abundance of aftermarket performance parts. Something as little as a aftermarket cat back exhaust wakes it up. The exhaust note is incredible on the V-8, especially after the installation of a cat back.
