Used 2015 Ford Mustang Convertible Consumer Reviews
A Horse of a Different Color
Like the Shelby Mustangs from 1968-1970, this new one is an odd contradiction: Both brutally powerful (in 435-hp GT form) and luxurious at the same time, it recalls those late '60s boulevard cruisers more than it reminds me of the more simple, honest 5.0 liter GTs of the 80's or the straightforward 2005 retro reboot. That is ok, as my 2015 GT Convertible finds me in my mid-40s, ready for a little more refinement in my car. This is my 19th Mustang; my tastes have changed and the car has grown up along with me. This car is built like an anvil and full of modern conveniences. It seems low and heavy at first, but soon it shrinks around you and feels like an old pair of Levis.
2015 Ford Mustang Convertible V6
I just got my 2015 Ford Mustang Convertible v6 with red exterior and black interior. The driving dynamics of this car are absolutely amazing. It feels like a true sports car. The drive is firm but smooth and when you put your foot on the gas the car just flies. I remember when I was taking the car out of the dealer, numerous people passing by were commenting how beautiful the car looks in bright red. My only complaint is that the interior looks plasticy, outdated and kind of cheap. The materials are really mehhh...wish they had done something to make it look more upscale, but all I care about is how it drives and for that this car gets an A+.

Pulsating vibration 60-75
Have had the car for 3 weeks already been in the shop 5 day. It has a pulsating vibration between 60 and 75...horrible and feels unsafe to drive. Replaced driveshaft and rear differential on a car with barely 1000 miles and still not fixed. Lemon law is next if it's not resolved ASAP.

Sporty....controlled aggression thats also a work of art :)
took delivery of this few days back. It is everything I liked about previous versions PLUS stuff that I had wished for ... like the feeling of luxury without compromizing the sportyness. Its pure exhilaration, as this beauty accelerates like a wild one by the looks yet a seasoned tamed pony by the responsiveness.
Hopefully your car isn't mine.
The 2015 Mustang GT is finally a sports car. The removal of the solid rear axle was the best thing they could have done. The rear end hop has been eliminated which has taken a drag racer and made it into a touring car. The stock ride is surprisingly comfortable for the driver and passinger. Both have heated and air conditioned seats the driver has lumbar support and I don't know why they didn't put one in the passinger seat. As always the back seat is more of an ornament than anything else. Child seats or a few grocery bags is really all that you'll be able to use them for. The power and sound is great for a stock car but I'd like the exhaust to be just a bit louder. The headlights and signals are top notch I have the adaptive cruise control system and it's been problematic. The automatic windshield wipers will suddenly come on for no reason and the adaptive cruise control shuts down in heavy rain and ocasionally for no reason at all. It claims the sensor is blocked. The remedy is to pull over and restart the car. The adaptive cruise control is operated by a radar head mounted below the grill and it also serves as a colision warning system. It beeps and puts a red bar on the windshield. Having that shut down during a rain storm is not something you want to happen. The interior far exceeds previous standards and it isn't a plastic rattle trap that we've come to know and love. It has plush parts now and real metal. The navagation screen is sharp and large enough to read. The home screen can be reconfigured with personal wallpapers of anything you want. Unfortunately the leather on the passinger side dash started to bubble on the inside front corner. Ford had to replace the entire dashboard and the replacement dash has done the same thing. Two dashboards before the first scheduled oil change is a bit much. The car handles well even in normal touring mode. There are 3 steering modes and as far as I can tell they just decide how much power steering you have. By putting the pedal to the floor the tachometer gage will turn red at night when you touch the red line. I haven't used the line lock feature and probably won't. New tires are expensive. The car comes standard with W rated tires and I personally feel that they should change that to the Y performance rating. The car is very responsive and I have broken traction once on a tight curve. When these tires wear out I will be replacing them with a Y rated tire if for nothing else better traction. The convertible top has an insulation layer that reduces road noise and makes for a quiet ride. I can recommend this car over the Camaro and Challenger. The Camaro has 1.2 more letters but you only gain 20HP. The Camaro isn't as comfortable to ride in and has less features. ** UPDATE: I have had a total of 3 dashboards and have been informed by Ford Motor Company that it is normal for the windshield wipers to come on without warning while in automatic mode. When I pointed out to the dealership that my wife's Lincoln Navigator L has the same system and has never had any problem and I never had any such problem with my Mercedes that I traded in for the Mustang. They told me that this is a Ford not a Mercedes. I pointed out that the sticker on this Ford was over $5,000.00 higher than the 2013 Mercedes SLK that I traded in on the car. If Ford wants to charge premium prices they need to deliver premium goods. I will be getting new tires for the car soon.
