Hey all. Gonna order a GT/CS convertible next week. Finally decided on a color (Oxford white) anyway, since I had never owned a convertible, I rented a 2015 vert last fall for a few days it get a feel for noise, wind, cowl shake, etc. I found the car fine. Noise was very acceptable. I didn't feel and shake. But I was getting some wind noise coming from the rear window area on the drivers side. It was a rental and maybe it had some issue that I wasn't aware of. So I am asking if there are any weird noises or other anomalies I should be aware of with the verts. I am thinking all is good, but if there is any weird stuff going on with these cars, I would like to know before my purchases. Thanx in advance:)

I have a 2015 Mustang V-6 vert and can tell you that there is driver's side wind noise behind you when you drive with the top up and the windows down...it's due to the wind making the rear window vibrate. This is normal. I have found much less wind buffing from this new Mustang vert than from my previous 2013 GT vert. Also I really like the new "one latch" closure. And the top operates so much faster now. My Pony runs around topless every day.

Mine doesn't have much wind noise with both the top and windows up. I do find the cowl shake to be quite excessive though. It became more noticeable after putting in lowering springs.

Thanx for that. Not planning on lowering anyway. Or not for some time anyway ;)
