I've driven both ecos, hardtop and convertible as well as both 5.0's and I can honestly say the eco boost are amazing cars to drive and have a suprising amount of power. However the convertible 5.0 is definitely my favorite.
No, the rear seat does not fold in the convertible. There is a structural brace behind the rear seat, and with the folding top down it could be damaged if the seat was folded. Get a coupe if you want folding rear seat back. 🙂 I have a 2019 Ecoboost convertible 6 speed manual and on the highway avg 65-70 mph the car easily gets 33 mpg on regular gas. My 86 GT had 200 hp, so this Ecoboost with 310 hp is plenty.
mac daddy yes for sure but only 20 with my first purchase of a 2019 sports car I probably would have overpaid for anything of the sort 😂 I got what I wanted so I’ll just be happy lollll
Great cars, i own a 2017 mustang ecoboost 6 speed manual coupe in uk, its a great car my pride an joy, thinking about gt 10 speed auto in couple of years time just for the v8 sound, want one in grabber lime or twister orange they look amazing 👍 good review man, nice seat colour in that mustang 😍👍👍🏴
no don't kid yourself lol, let's just say it would make a great second vehicle, especially with the droptop. Second to none other than one of the top 3 favorite pony cars, Mustang GT of course, Camaro SS, or the Challenger Scat Pack.
Agree completely. For those of us whose conception of "performance" means more than going from 0 to 60 mph in a straight line while making as much noise as possible and don't have to bolster their gender identity with a vehicle, a properly configured Ecoboost Mustang is a credible alternative to a European sports car at a significant savings. I"m lucky enough to live in the Pacific Northwest where roads frequently curve and mountains exist. No doubt a Mustang GT will outperform an Ecoboost version in a quarter mile drag race. But take each on a 50 mile mountain loop and the driver in the Ecoboost Mustang will be on a second cup of coffee when the GT (with the equivalent of an NFL lineman sitting in the passenger seat) arrives.
no way, gt has a lot more tire. i also think the smaller engine might be the better one because it's a lot quiet. if both cars had the same tires, the lighter car would be much better cornering.
No this is a silly comment. Absolutely 100 percent i agree the ecoboost is a great car but performance wise the GT will beat it time and time again. Especially in the PNW area, being able to hear the v8 roar through the mountains is an incredible feeling. I've rented an ecoboost and own the GT, both are great but the GT is better in every way other than fuel consumption.
The automatic with the convertible, especially in the Premium Ecoboost package, is awesome. It is not a race car; if your intent is the track, get the coupe. This is a fairly sophisticated drop top sports car - cruiser, and feels like it was designed from the ground up to do this. Plenty of power when you need it, good handling, very sporty yet very comfortable. And it looks gorgeous. Not quite as sexy as, say, the Aston Martin convertible, but far more beautiful than it’s convertible domestic (ahem) challengers. It also has better lines IMO than many of the BMW and Mercedes convertibles. Oh, and unlike the convertible Camaro competitor it has plenty of trunk/stowage space.
Ecoboost = affordable sports car Gt= pony/ muscle car. In south africa I would compare the gt to the m3 and c63. While the EcoBoost is compared to the gt86 and supra.
X .x I own one. its dope every time I go to drive it. seriously so much fun lol. Put the car in sport mode while driving down shift using paddle shifter then take off!

Hey Buddy, Very nice videos of your channel. Good and neat work. I am in the dilemma of considering if i should go with a 2019 GT convertible or Coupe. I am staying in UAE. My concerns are the 8months of heat + dust. If the rag top is cleanable, will it fade and all. It would be great if u could give me some suggestion with respect to it. Thanks in Advance Rohit
The fact is that owning any car that you have to constantly justify, either to yourself or to others, becomes very exhausting very quickly. The EcoBoost Mustang is the definition of such a car. Hard pass.
@@JaredRosenholtz the Mustamg convertible is awful. There's a reason it lives on the rentals fleets. If you are gonna get a 4 cylinder convertible,get one that was designed for it from the start like a Miata
@@swanblake The convertible cars, of which there are very few models as rentals are very popular with tourists who don't own and may never have been in a convertible. All the popular summer vacation spots in US get a lot of foreign visitors who rarely see a Mustang in their home countries. I have a 2019 Ecoboost convertible; it is very quiet, snug and a thousand times better than convertibles used to be. Take a ride in any convertible from the 50s-70s and then you will know how much better the new Mustang and Camaro convertibles are.

These cars must be pretty good if we're down to complaining about a manual latch to lower the top.
My mustang is in Orlando hub can’t wait to receive it this weekend I’m pumped !

You overpaid.

@@charged1thegamer589 I was just kidding.
@@bigmacdaddy1234 i paid 100,000 for mine
hey gamer that's a good deal, the rental i just had, had 33k on it, and it still looked and drove like it was brand new. And it's a 2020 model.
The option groups aren’t described accurately. The 201A group includes the digital dash, not the premium trim.

You want as much manual controls on the convertible top as you con get. You are lazy if you think the center latch on the top is too much work.
Ecoboost premium soft top is what I have
Ecoboost = affordable sports car
Gt= pony/ muscle car.

I rented one last summer 🔥🔥🔥
Same here these are great cars I’m 6’3” and fit perfectly 👍🏽👍🏽
I just bought one yesterday. I’m in love
Was it dope I’m renting this one tommarow for the beach 🏖.?
X .x I own one. its dope every time I go to drive it. seriously so much fun lol. Put the car in sport mode while driving down shift using paddle shifter then take off!
ChargeD1 The Gamer I will certainly try it out tomorrow with my buddy’s 💯😁
But you shouldn’t have to remove the Mustang name to enjoy the car. I do like this vehicle though.
Trying to find one of these rn
You make alot of good points there Is Jonah
Let's do a convertible review with the top up the whole time. Way to go Einstein.
Sorry, it's better for audio
Einstein would have kept the roof down mac daddy, as you wouldn't have heard a thing otherwise! Think about it.

Absolutely get the coupe. It's going to be WAY too hot in the UAE for a convertible. The convertible is also slower and more expensive.
Just drop the top and turn on the cooling seats and ac 👍
@@BrianDivaCox Not sure you know how hot the UAE gets
@@carbuzzcom ok add a hat lol. What's their temp?
@@carbuzzcom currently it's 101 the car Windows creates a ac/air bubble. It's pretty amazing
Convertible (31,385$) new or used?
Is this car still available?
Pounds??
Guys I have the same car and the same options but there’s NO exhaust mode. Please answer me!!
I believe the exhaust mode you’re talking about was a $900 sport exhaust package which I don’t think you got.
The fact is that owning any car that you have to constantly justify, either to yourself or to others, becomes very exhausting very quickly. The EcoBoost Mustang is the definition of such a car. Hard pass.
Or, just learn not to care what anyone thinks and love the car for what it is...

No fear of losing press cars, just enjoyed the car a lot. The new Hi Po one is even better.
Not everyone can afford the GT and that's a fact.
