I will be turning 16 in a few months and my parents and I have been car shopping around a bit. I indeed want a convertible but i‘m not sure of the mustang‘s cloth top convertiblei‘m not sure if i would feel safe enough. But the Blt;W has a hardtop convertible that i like alot. But the mustang is still in my mind. I like that alot too. HELP?
Do you plan to drive in such a manner that would result in your car being upside down? If so, perhaps you should not be considering a convertible. or any car, for that matter. The S197 Mustang convertible actually has better overall crash scores than the coupe version. I'm not sure why, but maybe it's because there is additional bracing underneath. If you're driving the car the way it's meant to be driven, which is with the top down, then a rollover accident is going to ruin your day regardless of which convertible you buy. Drive them both is all I can say. Yes, the BMW is more refined overall, and I like them OK, but they and their Z4 twins are about as ubiquitous as Toyota Camrys; they're just not special. There is nothing special about a Mustang, either. until you get behind the wheel. I am happy to say there are very few cars that I would trade mine for, and a garden variety BMW 3-Series ain't one of them. It's visceral, brash, unapologetically cheap in some areas, but it's just so much fun to drive. (What would I trade for, you ask? Let's see. you don't happen to have a Ferrari Daytona sitting around, do you?) Oh, one more thing: If you want a hardtop convertible at a lower price, get the VW EOS or Miata hardtop. I would think those would be more up a teenage girl's alley.
The BMW big time, and the mustang is probably about twice as much money in insurance.
Luxury car ( interior and exterior ) with better stability , magnificent suspension system ,wonderful sound insulation . etc without hesitating BMW
