Review and Test Drive: 2018 Ford Mustang GT Premium Convertible – The Green Car Driver –
Once underway, I paid minimal attention to the latest version of Sync, which is quite decent, and plugged my iPhone 8+ in so I could take advantage of the more personalized experience that Apple CarPlay has to offer. Ford, along with Volvo, has outshone other automakers in integrating CarPlay into the vehicle and – at least for now – it’s the best infotainment interface available.
BOTTOM LINE
The Mustang has more power and more personality than ever before and it’s a car I look forward to drive again and again and again, top down of course. There’s no question Lee Iococca knew what he was doing in ’64 when he championed the Mustang project.
