Not at all, I've been driving convertibles for several years, have yet to roll anything, both coupe and convertible.
I've spent enough time on two wheels cornering that I can't imagine a convertible. To each their own, I suppose. Same way I hate driving SUV's, always feel like I'm going to flip over.

Is it any wonder that so many drivers here in Southeast FL who are former New Yorkers are responsible for the amount of Crashes we have. If "cornering" on public roadways in a passenger Vehicle causes you concern about flipping a Convertible over due to aggressive performance driving, you belong on the Track with a steel roll bar, (not) on the city streets and highways, just saying.....

Really? Please, do provide your source for the official statistics that reveal the percentage of accidents in Southeast FL for which former New Yorkers are responsible. :rolleyes:

Contact Sheriff Rick Bradshaw Palm Beach County Sheriff`s Dept. In Collier County, Southwest FL / Naples, where there are (very) few New York / New Jersey transplants, folks drive in a much more civil manner. That (behavior) extends to rudeness experienced in all aspects of the service sector and hospitality industry as well. If you`ve ever visited West Palm Beach, Ft Lauderdale or Miami, you already know that.

I call BS on your self made statistics. I know many born and Florida breed drivers here that are WORTHLESS.

No doubt, rubber necking watching someone change a flat tire causing backs ups for miles on the Interstate, Red Light Runners and no one (ever) using their Directional Signals. Lithia is (not) in Southeast FL!

I lived in West Palm Beach for 8 years before transferring to the Tampa office.

Funny, I jumped in just wanting to see when I might expect to Order and take Delivery of a 2015 Mustang Convertible in Base V6 Trim with no PP. Just a damn Spare Tire and Spoiler Delete!

Job 2 convertibles will be available in the spring, probably April.

I see plenty of Florida plates in the NC Appalachian mountains. They cannot drive in the hills/mountains. We have a name for these people... Flor-idiots.

EB with PP brakes are the base brakes for the 5.0 , so the non PP GT is already starting off with better brakes. Also these are equivalant to last years Brembo brake package.

I too am dissaponted the convertible is not offered with the PP.

If the 2015 Convertibles are delayed until April delivery, I`m holding off for a 2016! I don`t give a damn about the 50th Decal Badge on the Dash. Just like what was experienced with the long extended production run of the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid, expect the same with the 2015 Mustang. With a backlog of Build Orders, the 2015 run will be extended into almost early 2016 and the 2016 run will be shortened to 8 months or less with an early launch of MY 2017.
