2004 Ford Mustang GT convertible review from North America
"Great car, lousy build quality"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The carpet is bunched up at the rear of the driver's door opening.
A piece of molding wasn't properly installed by the passenger door.
The wiring harness under the rear seat was not secured correctly.
I found a very large nut/washer under the rear seat also, what did this come from???
Underlay under the rear seat was not installed correctly.
Paint on the side scoops doesn't match the rest of the car.
Top boot does not fit well.
Driver's window squeaks when up and top is up.
Overall build quality is poor for a new car.
General comments?
The car drives and handles great.
The Mach 1000 sound system is superb, but cuts down the trunk space to almost nothing.
Transmission shifts very well.
Fun factor is high with this car, my family loves it.
