Used Ford convertibles for sale near Marine, IL

After a negligent driver rear-ended my other car, I bought a 2022 Mustang GT Premium with the insurance money. I had a 1979 Mustang Cobra years ago and loved it. This is a great car, too. Fast, comfortable and beautiful. I haven't driven it in snow yet and have some trepidation about that but otherwise I'm glad I bought it. There are only three things I don't like: the car payment (who does?), the gas mileage, although I can get 30 mpg if I drive 58 mph, and there seems to be some high school kid at every stoplight who wants to race. This is definitely a car worth buying if you're an empty-nester, going through your mid-life crisis or single and don't have to haul much in your trunk.

Representative informed me that my warranty hadn't expired and that it was good until 2027. I had purchased another warranty, and he explained that I needed to cancel it and get a refund.

Excellent value for the price. Do not purchase this vehicle without the active exhaust option. The fake vents are disappointing but otherwise the car is perfect.

Jad, The salesperson was absolutely fabulous! He really knew his stuff and shared everything with me without any pressure to purchase the vehicle. Probably the best salesman I've ever dealt with and I'm 72! Steve j. Sisson

I am so in love with my 2005 Mustang GT. I have owned this car since probably 2007. It was a repo and I've never been sorry I bought it. She been a baby and I'll own her till I have to say goodbye. ❤️

Here is a review of my start to finish process of buying a car from Gateway Classic Cars, Ft. Lauderdale: ----- 1. The sales people who you work with are not on site. They're working remote so they don't have eyes on the car. ---- So, 2. You'll want to be connected with someone on site who can start and drive the car, provide a walkaround video, pictures of whatever you want and give their input. I worked with Alex at the Ft. Lauderdale location for my purchase and he was outstanding with helping me to know the car before making an offer. He is the reason that this is a 5 star review. -------- 3. Hauling: They'll get you a quote for hauling the vehicle. I chose Nexus Transport myself to use. They were a bit cheaper and top rated by Forbes. That went just fine. --------- 4. These cars are all on consignment. So, I feel that you have to be a little more careful because you have another party who may not have disclosed things to Gateway. Best practice is to get a pre-buy done from someone like Lemon Squad. That being said, I was so comfortable with my deal, took the risk and waived the pre-buy. And in my case, the Prowler is a mint gem and I have no concerns after receiving it. Also, there is a common thought then you buy a car like this, you should budget 10% or so of the price for maintenance right after you get the car because stuff always comes up, otherwise, don't buy a used car. --------5. Since they're on consignment, they have commissions they charge the seller. As a buyer, I don't care if I see a commissions line on the purchase agreement. As long as my out the door number was what I offered, that's fine. --------6. I wired money to them and within a few hours, I had all the fully executed paperwork back in my hands. Title took about 3 weeks to receive by UPS. And the folder had everything I needed to register the car in my state. Wow! Thank you Barbara! ------ 7. So here is what breeds loyalty. Alex at the Ft. Lauderdale location made sure the car was completely ready to be picked up including accessories that were bubble wrapped. The car was supposed to be picked up at Noon on Saturday, plenty of time before they closed at 5pm. He stayed until the truck arrived...very late....AT 1:30am Sunday morning!!!! (Otherwise, it would have sat until Tuesday). I cannot believe he did that for me. I received my car loading video at 2am. That's unbelievable service that deserves more than 5 stars. ------- Summary: I'd have zero issues with buying from Gateway again....they just operate in a different dealership style than what I'm used to, which is just fine.

Sounds....amazing! Drives...smooth and clean. Interior... feels like new. This is as close to a new 1989 Ford Mustang LX Coupe as you can get. V8 Engine is a 5.0 and is up against a 5 speed manual transmission that makes shifting solid and sure. The cold A/C is great... but the best is when you go out cruising...all the heads turn, tilt, listen...and then smile. It's a show car. No rain. Paint... mirror like finish. She is ready for a new home, so check it out!

They were super helpful, but never found what I was looking for. Gateway said they would kept looking for me.

The Ford Mustang is the kind of car that you get because you want, not because you need. And this one is exactly what I need. Much more ruggedly built the Fox body Mustangs, Though a little smaller in appearance, but a whole lot of fun for the money especially if you can find 8 cylinder with low mileage.

Overall everything went well. The requesting of the original owner for the vehicle keys was never done as I was never notified of a reply.

This car is my dream car! Even down to the color!!! It's a gas hog but I can't help but putting my foot in its petal and absolutely love the sound and feel of it as I drive!

Great timed replies and working to get my price and dtermine location of unit.amen

This car is super comfortable for the driver and front passenger. The comfort for the rear passenger isn't the best. Cargo space is surprisingly decent for a sports car.

Beautiful car and it's sounds bada** . Love the stick shift , and it's VERY reliable , easy fix .when you turn on the car it roars to life . When I got the car it wouldn't run I got it for 300 I probably invested 300 more and it was running amazing . Love it

Awsome car very dependable , rare one of 250 made all paperwork and orig window sticker.always garaged . Never abused . Good example of a survivor car

I only sold this because I need more space for a family. Such a fun car and a great drive. Lots of space in the trunk but not much in the backseat. Didn’t bother me because the front is very spacious. Definitely going to miss this car.

Love this car just had it ceramic coated it looks brand new. I put a Roush cold air return on it with Borla S Axel backs. Love the growl. Will be getting a tune in the future. Changed out the shaker 500 radio and speakers. Now the sound is amazing. Plus now I have blue tooth and Android Auto.

This 90's muscle car has newly added comfort and performance parts to make this Foxbody Mustang run look and run like new. Find yourself in a time machine of road performance.

I fell in love with car when it was new and didn’t have my own until decades later. I bought an in line 6, swapped the engine, and rear end. CJ Pony parts is awesome. Plug and play. Be prepared to drop 30k on your 20k “investment”, live life and have fun!!! All you need is a Phillips screw driver, an SAE socket set, and a credit card.

This car is great for me and my wife to cruise in, it easy to get in and out and love showing it off,will have lots of fun this summer.

Fun summer ride you'll enjoy. Top down comfort. V8, all the ponies you need to get up and go. If you like to tinker this is the car for you to add your personal touch!

I've had a my 1965 Mustang GT High Performance Convertible since my Dad bought me one new for making the Dean's List in High School and the Varsity Tennis team--May 1, 1965 Dad Paid $4,020,80 for this comfy manual 4-speed, front disc brakes, fog lamps, front seat belts, center console, AM Radio, with a Tachometer and Clock: My Father Believed that Power was safety when Passing cars--He wanted me to have the "Special Handling Package" for solid control which came with this model with manual steering, brakes, power top and front seat belts: His faith in me for handling a powerful car only made me drive that much safer--I never let him down; no tickets, no accidents, and I kept the car waxed, clean and garaged--saving the paint and interior as best I could--but it did need a new top and interior, and an engine overhaul after 150,000 miles in 1986--I read a review here where a man said it handles poorly--that may have been true with the basic model $2600 bare bones car but certainly not with the front disc brakes, 4-speed manual transmission and the "Special Handling Package" with Limited Slip--My car is very cozy and I've driven as far as Aptos CA to Everett WA in one haul, 1400 miles in 22 hours with a few rest stops, meals, good tunes, a warm heater, and comfort; and, were talking a convertible! Like any car one needs to read the manual to keep the car in shape and avoid breakdowns--If one follows the owners manual one will avoid any problems. I recall only one time over 700,000 miles I needed a tow truck for a faulty Alternator--my bad as this should be changed every 75,000 miles and I'd let it go over 125,000--AAA tow was free and the cost of a new Alternator was 29 bucks! Parts are inexpensive as over a 1/2 million of these cars were made in 1965 when we bought mine in May 1965 . My car has gone up in value ever year, is great for work or vacation with 2 kids--I get 18 miles to the gallon all around and can get 22 without my foot in it. it is now valued at $75,000 in Good Condition (mines a tad better as I've always had a garage); not bad for a car my Dad paid $4,020.80 for 56 years and 10 months ago.

Great place and service department. Always a pleasure to be there. Friendly staff. No place I'd rather go.

I bought a Mustang GT because I was dissatisfied with my 2020 Corvette's ride and ergonomics. Also, because neither Chevrolet nor Dodge had an answer to the Mustang. The GT has great features with its touch screens, intuitive HVAC controls and other vehicle control features, The interior is comfortable. It could use power tilt-tele steering wheel. There's plenty of gauge clusters, and color schemes to keep you busy. Same for Drive modes. Braking is very good, especially the optional Brembo's. The sound system in top B&O guise is the minimal you'd expect. It doesn't measure up to Mopar. Power is good, but low end torque could be better. The exterior styling would be second to Camaro if there were one, but it keeps improving. Opt for the 20inch wheels for looks and handling. Choose the right paint, and get the 6 speed if you like manual gears. Ford, increase fuel tank size from 16 to 18.
