Ford Mustang Convertible 2018 in-depth review | Mat Watson Reviews

  • For the first time in Ford Mustang’s long history, the convertible version of the Mustang coupe is now available in the UK, with right hand drive! However, once the excitement of being able to rip around in this iconic muscle car on UK roads has died down, how does it stack up against similar priced rivals, such as the Audi TT Roadster, the Mercedes C-Class Convertible or BMW 4 Series. How does the turbocharged 2.3 litres EcoBoost petrol engine handle on UK roads, or will you be left wishing you bought the 5.0 litre V8? Have sacrifices been made in converting this car to be a convertible? Can it pass the carwow flick test? Find out exactly what I thought of this iconic America vehicle in this 4k review

    I own this car and compared to my other car (2007 Honda Accord) it is amazing. Looks and power (I drive the ecoboost in the sport mode almost all the time - something that wasn't mentioned in this vid) are incomparable to so many pedestrian type cars. Why does every sassy sounding Brit reviewer keep comparing this to a V8 version which costs 5k more? This is a somewhat affordable and goes quite fast compared to most of the cars you'll see on the road around you. As fast as a Porsche? No. As slow as a camel? No. It just "is what it is" and it is a really fun (and quite fast in sport mode) car.

    I think Ford Mustangs only problem is they didn’t pay Matt enough to like it. I currently have this same car as a hire car and I think it’s great. Granted the roof catch is a little old school but otherwise I can’t fault it. Will be heading to the Ford dealer on my return for sure!

  • @IcelanderUSer
    @IcelanderUSer 7 лет назад +1

    When your looking at a one bedroom condominium with Formica countertops and carpeting instead of solid wood floors you don't complain that it's not finished in higher cost materials because you're aware the price would be much higher. The gt model would be the condo with a great view and the four cylinder is in the back facing a brick wall. Both have carpet but you want the view. It's more exciting.
    Forgot to mention. the marble countertops and Brazilian teak floors you want are down the street at the Porsche dealer.

    I've just driven this 5.0 litre V8 convertible in Florida for a week. It is sensational, but being typical American car, it is not as refined as our German cousins & clearly the build quality is not the same. However the engine roar is sweet and performance is incredible. It really does give you a grin then you plant your foot down. It's all about emotion! For the price it is incredible value. Go for the automatic. Don't bother with the smaller engine, go for the 5.0!

      As someone that works on cars for a living I agree about German cars being over rated. They are built to last a few years for lease packages and then fall apart. BMWs use the most flimsy materials in the world. KIA is much better then German cars.

    I don't understand why Ford doen't give the customer the opportunity to choose higher quality if he doesn't has a problem with spending more money. The GT costs in germany around 50k they just could give things like leather packages etc. for 10k extra. I'd say a lot of ppl would compare this to a 440i, S4 or CLA.

    +Carwow Something I've noticed is that most American cars don't pass the big bottle door test. I think it's because in America, we don't sell many beverages in 1 liter bottles the way they are...... well anywhere else in the world. I think American car designers don't have the liter bottle in mind when they make the door bin. Just something I've noticed and something you might mention next time you review an American car.

      Perittologos Megas It wins in style as long as noone sees the interiour.
      Better not buy the convertible, but a coupe with tanned windows.
