Subscribing in hopes to see some reviews and more photos! Mine is still sitting after being built for 13 days....grrr....Will have to live vicariously through you now! :cheers::hail::thumbsup::ford::headbang:
Looks that our "early build convertibles" from 11/17 through 11/25 might have been the ones with possible Roof Leaks and are being held to be retrofitted. I`m anxious to get mine shipped but don`t want to be dealing with wet seating or carpeting and rather not have to deal with the Dealers having the ability to make it right.

Mine is still sitting "In Production" since being built 12/4...wonder if the issues extended to my build date? What day was yours born RisingForce?

90 tempo.
Just got done driving it this afternoon/evening and two hundred miles later, I must say I'm impressed.
I've owned 7 mustangs in the past ( 98-2010 models , V6 , GT , coupe and verts). The 2015 is the best Mustang I've ever owned. Very impressive when it comes to combination of power, ride, comfort....Everything! It's one thing to read about the horse power, but when you actually feel that power and torque and with one nudge on the gas pedal you get pushed back as you see that mean hood cut through the road, that's when you realize what a give automobile this is and how it was so worth the wait.

For a convertible the road noise is very improved over previous years.

The antenna gets screwed on and it's not retractable.

Very impressed that they now paint the Sirius antenna the same color as the body paint. Hated those black bugs! lol

Only sad thing is I have to tuck it away till March :(

Hope all of you who are waiting for your verts get them soon. Looking forward to see pictures from fellow member's vehicles and read the reviews.

Cheers.

I like the seat belt guides on the convertible, the ones on the fast back look flimsey

Sorry (again) but any more thoughts on the rear seat head room? That is the one potential deal breaker for me.

Happy to hear about the improved road noise, that is great to hear!

Thanks,

Chris

Thanks for the review RF. Checked COTUS this AM and "Maggie" is in transit with EDD to Colorado changed to 1/7/2015. Sorry to hear that the antenna is a screw on guess I'll just have to put a hole in the car cover. :)

More headroom in the rear compared to fastback but still not enough IMO. Which is why its great with the vert to put the top down. I am more concerned about legroom though as if you wanna sit comfortably as the driver, your passenger behind you will be left with not much of legroom,

Thanks for that, will have to scoot down to a local dealer when they start coming in and try one out for myself. Congratulations again!

They look sturdy, but at the same time look like a pain in the butt if you actually want to take the belt in and out. On the coupe it's a magnetic button strap and super easy to disconnect and reconnect.

Crappy weather yes, but HE is here and it was worth the wait!

Am I officially the first vert here? :) :cheers:
Congratulations, RisingForce! That's awesome; Sepiroth is looking fierce. :headbang:
