2019 "Need For Green" Ford Mustang GT Convertible Review (FordNXT)
Business With The Top Up & Fun With The Top Down In A 2019 Drop-top.

“I am sorry to tell you that is a nice color on your car,” the cashier said sheepishly. “No need to be sorry, it is pretty cool,” I replied.

No matter the color, a Mustang convertible still makes people green with envy, but no longer does it mean that you have completely given up on performance.
