Powerful car with classic looks, HD Radio, Sync. The car goes like stink!!

Big-time Performance That You Can Afford — My 2012 Mustang GT Premium is the first convertible I have ever owned. I waited for the '12 model to get the 5.0 engine and it was worth the wait. Bottomless horsepower and torque meets top-down driving enjoyment. Every time I drive the car with the top down, it feels like I'm on vacation. Hey, Ford, next time please include: memory seat (at least for driver), telescoping wheel, a better seal system for rear windows to convertible top and smaller in-door speakers (hard not to kick the speakers when you're exiting the car when you have size-13 dogs). I considered the Camaro, but the convertible was not available when I bought the Mustang.

To Call This Car Awesome Is Not An Exaggeration! — This car has performance specs similar to sports cars costing 3 to 4 times more. The rumble made by the extra pipes coming out the side greatly enhance the audible experience. I have had many sports cars and this is easily my favorite of all time.

My Wife Loves It — Who cares what the back seats are like, I'm never going to sit in them. Could do with a better shifter but the power is over the top as is the comfort and handling. Excellent for long long drives, just eats up the miles and you arrive relaxed.

Dream Car — Muscle and finese. This Mustang is very fun to drive, it is nothing like a regular Mustang GT. It is lower to the ground and hugs the road better. Get the "red" key with the performance chip and it is a completly different car.

Fierce Unlimited — I love the way my new car looks & handles, it's a comfortable ride that is smooth & shifts like butter. It's a fun car to drive & be safe and in control. You can't beat the gas mileage $ in the bank with gas savings.

The Beast — The best car I ever had in my entire life! Always wanted a '68 Fastback but this was the next best thing. My buddy works in the Ford plant and actually makes the engines for the smaller v-6 but this is a swet ride

This Pony Runs !! — I love this car for just about everything it does.... speed, handling and looks. The Recaro seats are fantastic. The car cover has the Boss 302 stripes on it. Looks fast even while covered up! My dislikes are the lack of SYNC in the car ansd the crappy 4 speaker stereo.

Street Legal Race Car — This car is an absolute beast! Great power you can really feel. Responds very well to minimal modifications so not alot of money is needed to make it stupid fast. Handles very well for a live rear axle instead of an independent rear suspension like its competitors (camaro, challenger). All in all a very fun car to drive!

Overall Very Satisfied — I would say the only bad things about this car are The back seat room, the trunk space and The stupid amount of horsepower in which i can kill myslef with. Other than that I am really satisfied with the car. More buttons and nick nacks than i know what to do with.
