Revised cabin
The interior is also fresh for 2010. The revised dashboard still looks massive, but it’s all trimmed with a new soft-touch material. Satin aluminum accents work to create a link between past and present Mustangs.
The seats and armrests are wrapped in soft leather featuring delicate stitching. The front buckets are large but fail to provide adequate side support. As for the rear seats, access is fashionably complicated… unless you’re flexible like a gymnast or slim like a supermodel! Oh the things you’d do just to enjoy the sun in a Mustang Convertible!
Ford’s SYNC multimedia technology is also included along with new functionalities like 911 Assist. Moreover, thanks to MyColour, drivers can create more than 125 background colour combinations for the full complement of six gauges. Totally nonessential but a definite conversation starter!
Soundproofing is certainly worth mentioning. The addition of sound-deadening materials successfully makes the interior quieter than ever. As a result, occupants can appreciate the fascinating growl of the V8 and the powerful audio system even more.
Ultimately, becoming a fan of the Ford Mustang GT Convertible means embracing both its refined and rustic attributes. After all, any drop-top will always be a combination of compromises. Thus, the design and construction of a Mustang GT don’t meet the same expectations and compromises as a Honda S2000. These two cars actually target very different types of drivers. If the former is too much compromises for you, well, go buy a run-of-the-mill sedan!
