Hey. First post so please pardon any gaffes. Sold my awesome 2019 PP2 red Recaro 401A car a month ago. It wasn't getting much drive time and we have a loaded 2018 GT premium auto for the daily so it was not used often enough.
The Recaros got old quick and the manual and PP2 suspension was only fun without passengers if you know what I mean. After selling it, I got the itch for another spare stang that was more "family daily friendly".
Just picked up a loaded convertible GT PP1 w the magnaride. Great price and couldn't pass. Was hoping to bridge the gap between our GT premium and the PP2 but with the rag top to change it up and auto for the wifey.
The car is awesome. However, the convertible is A LOT more "shakey" than I had expected. The lack of rigidity is very noticeable from the coupes. More so than I hoped for but I'm stuck with it for a while. Looking to make the best of it. I plan to paint the calipers, probably square the wheels with some PP2 style wheels, add a wing/spoiler, tint, maybe a tune?
Any suggestions on how to get the best out of this magnaride PP1 Conv without destroying what's left in ride quality would be appreciated. Please go easy on me for ditching the PP2. I'm already missing it but can't go back now. Below is old car and new.
