I drive a compact 4-cylinder hatchback, but because it's a manual, it's actually a lot of fun.

I'm not sure if the Mustang V6 convertible was even available with a manual tranny. As far as old ladies, you're probably right there, but even a model that has been well-cared for is OK, just not one that's been heavily modified or tuned up.

Keep posting though, I'm interested to hear what you end up getting and how you like it.

I sure can drive sticksifts. These cars are very common in Europe and I have driven them for 3 years now. I don't remember having seen any convertible Mustangs with manual tranny.

Here's a nice coupe:
