SVT-DADDY
World's heaviest S550
Apart from all the BS in this thread acting like it's 1987 all over again and Ford just cuts the roof off a coupe and calls it good there are really three things to consider.
1. Looks....some might say that with the top up the lines of the car are "off" compared to a coupe. In some respects I agree which is why all 3 of my Mustang convertibles have been dark colored. The car being close to the color of the top makes it look less broken up.
IMHO with the top down the lines are fantastic and better than the hardtop.
2. Racing.....honestly the 120 extra lbs won't matter much, all things being equal that is still a drivers race. What will be a factor is with most tracks requiring you to bolt a swing set in the car to race it will limit what you can do.
3.Safety....A roll over would be the one time I'd prefer to have a hardtop. Pretty simple solution...don't roll it!
