Packing on the pounds
All convertibles - Mustang's or otherwise - are heavier than hardtops. The extra bracing plus the top mechanism (motor, braces) all add up to maybe 150 pounds, at most, to haul around.
If you really want a ragtop, go for it, especially if this is your daily driver as well as a weekend cruiser. Saving weight is great but you're not buying a drag car and a few good mods can make up the weight difference.
