First time poster....long time viewer of this board. I'll be getting a Mustang in the next couple of weeks and I'm trying to decide between the GT and 'Vert.

I've never had a convertible and I'm wondering:
A. How easy and quick is it to put the top down and back into place?
B. Do the tops rip easily?
C. How much would a new top cost?
D. Do any of you guys keep the top down when you park the car at the beach or shopping at a store?

Thanks for you responses. I plan on posting here a lot, especially when I finally own a mustang.

Well... If you live in all-year summer climates a Convertable would be perfect and lets hope you not too tall, cuz you lose a good 2 inches of head room on a soft-top. And if you plan to park it at a mall with the top down I strongly suggest you get an alarm with proximaty sensors with a lcd pager. They are great I installed one recently, works really well.
