Excellent video, James! Your praise and criticisms for this car are accurate. I have a ’21 GT Premium convertible w/10AT, 401A pkg, leather interior, B&O sound with 12 spks and subwoofer but no magneride and no performance pkg. I absolutely love it, but you’re right to point out that it’s not an AMG because it’s not SUPPOSED to be an AMG. For $50k, it does everything it’s supposed to do very well! The AT that I got (so I could have ACC) is good but a little slow-shifting in spots. I’ve learned to adapt my acceleration to hit the sweet spot on gear changes. I didn’t get the performance options because I’m not taking it on the track or drag strip. I use it for road trips. After all, the GT stands for “gran turismo” (grand touring) so I use it for touring the beautiful USA. Nevertheless, the exhaust system does produce just the right amount of obnoxiousness. :-)

Slow shifting? What spots are those because I've had many sports cars and unless you get a dct that transmission shifts faster than most. You guys do realize that there are different drive modes right? And that it will shift faster depending on what mode you're in. This kid is driving around using paddle shifters doing 20-30mph and trying to upshift without being on the gas pedal. Most standards don't e even like that.
Really likes your review!
That bad boy sounds oh so nice.
Did I miss something, or did you not open the trunk or show the hard top retracting?
Has Ford corrected the problems they had with the MT82 manual transmission?
Earned a sub +like! Love it!
Awesome review Jim. I'm a Corvette guy and I've owned quite a few, especially the C7's. Your review was my deciding factor to go drive one and my wife and I did. We ended up buying a loaded up Twister Orange with the 10-spd. It's virtually the same thing as the 10-spd in my 19 ZL1 convertible. The Mustang won't be in for another 8 weeks as we ordered it how we wanted. Thanks for the great review !

Nice vid! and Thanks for going under the hood! So many reviewers don't do that
Any differences of significance between this and the 2021?
I heard the paddles respond better when you shift into sport mode

I was wondering if I should pick a convertible, and you mentioning how nice it is to hear the exhaust with the top down has set my opinion to go with the convertible. Also, really great production quality and overall atmosphere. Thanks for the review!

Hey James, Very nice videos of your channel. Good and neat work. I am in the dilemma of considering if i should go with a 2019 GT convertible or Coupe. I am staying in UAE. My concerns are the 8months of heat + dust. If the rag top is cleanable, will it fade and all. It would be great if u could give me some suggestion with respect to it. Thanks in Advance Rohit

Hi! Is the exhaust we hear in the video stock V8 or is it the active exhaust we hear in sport? I’m asking as I don’t own one and want to rent one and wondering if it would sound like this? Thanks so much!

First of all..if you purchase a V8 you don’t care about costs especially gas...anyhow..it’s okay..I pay between 45-50 dollar for a full tank..it holds for 300-400 miles depending how you drive
What's that annoying sound that comes up randomly like at 12:26?
Why the Hell mustang keeps putting that antenna on the back of the convertible making car look bad in my Opinion

Nothing abnormal/noticeable. I have one and I also had a 2012 convertible-both are fine. I like this top so much better than my 2012. It is sturdier and opens/closes faster.
Had to build mine, was zero 6 spd anywhere with the options I wanted. Delivery is August 14th

I really luuuuv this car, I wish Ford could have more options on the interior colours tho, the traditional black seats are boring, you can't have almost every colour with black seats.

My opinion, I don't really focus much on the seating. It's comfy, but still looks nice in a way. It blends with the exterior.
My favorite sound at 0:49
Why would it be called premium that doesn't sound like America muscle how bout ss that sounds great

I feel like that's a given in a car at this price point
I would definitely opt for the manual...BUT that 10R80 is objectively better built and demonstrably faster. The MT-82 is notorious for shift fork failure and gear lockouts. Ford obviously couldn't fit in a Tremec manual at the GT price point.

SMASH THAT FUKIN LIKE BUTTON
Lol.. we did search convertible for what?? U didn't even show the conversation
You're missing out on capabilities of this car. The handling on windy mountain roads, canyon roads, twisty switch-backs, VERY comparable to the SUPERB handling characteristics of a BMW 3-series. Very buttoned down, very connected. I took a standard turbo 4 convertible to the back roads of Pennsylvania, AND THE HANDLING COMPARED VERY WELL to my 2011 BMW 3-series. The latest Mustangs are excellent handling cars, without question.

Lol , like most you don't know how to drive a 10R80. If you want the car to perform put it in sport mode and the gear selector in S..
the host is in love with himself a little too much LOL
you don't know how to drive to the automatic ask raiti, he knows how to drive the automatic lol
