My Thoughts:

1. NEEDS DIFFERENT WHEELS!

2. Style Bar "Roll Bar" Needs to be a real roll bar. 

Other than that, I actually really like it and at $10k it actually seems close to reasonable. Classic looks, modern reliability and parts availability, and a soft top that works well. I'd drive it!

So top up doesn't look nearly as good, but I think I still like it.

M1stang! It's been around for a while, as evidenced by the fact that it uses "M1" instead of "NA".

I've also seen a Cobra body kit for these. Surprisingly good from a distance, then the uncanny valley takes hold.

Dang it! I did a quick glance, because I suspected there would be, but I didn't see it.
