Used Ford convertibles for sale near New Baden, IL

I traded in my Dodge Challenger for something that gets better gas mileage. Let me say first that I was skeptical about trading in a car for fear of losing value. They saw that my car was very well taken care of and offered more than I was expecting for trade in value! Karla responded to my inquiry first thing after checking to see if they had what I wanted in stock. I arrived the following morning and Karla met me on the lot. Im giving this place 5 stars because there was no hassle what so ever! These people are different from the giant dealership system where they send you from person to person. Karla took me through the whole process and made it into a worry free trade. All the staff are personable not to mention some of the pretty sweet classics they have for sale. Thanks Karla and SI Vallett for the help.

I bought this car as the baseis of a new hobby build. It had the performance options I wanted and was an automatic. Two items the dealer failed to disclose were worn tires and two curb checked wheels.

Responded quickly with info, pictures and a video of the car. Very professional. I would recommend them.

Nice sound system Lots of accessories available for my vehicle and Good performance. Very nice interior with phone amenities and cold AC. Kona blue has a great look , with its metal flake in the paint

Beautiful classic’s automobiles And very selective on their business, I planning to buy one soon.

Mine performs above expectations. I highly doubt I will ever sell this car. I have owned many cars in my life this one is very special.

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

Custom rod...Built from the ground up. Perfect street rod. Got air conditioning, heat ,power windows, electric doors and tilt steering wheel and lots of chrome.

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.

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

Mustang convertible GT California special edition mechanical work a little bit needed but that’s OK at 130,000 miles. A dream come true my second convertible.

I have owned my pony for 4 years now. The only repair I had was a fuel pump 2 years ago. Every little button still works, it is fast(but not superfast yet) and it looks soooo cool! The main reason I went with this Mustang over a Vette, is it is way easier to get in and out of for an older guy. It has all the standard amenities you could want. And did I mention how cool you look in a red Pony convertible when you squawk the tires???

This vehicle is almost flawless for a 32 yr old vehicle. Drives and rides like a new one. Very fun, fast, and very dependable.

Mine is a 2006 4.0 V6 convertible. I am absolutely in love with this car. It was very, very well maintained by the previous owner, and aside from minor paint chipping, looks to be almost brand new. It never fails to turn heads.

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!

What do you get in a fox body? Well you get the legendary reliability of the Windsor V8, you get an intoxicating sound, you get a comfortable interior, and easy to work on platform. You get a car that's fun to drive.. While by today's standards they are slow, they still make gobs of torque, and that makes it fun, the RWD platform is a noodle in convertible trim, and a rattle trap in Hatch trim, but they have held up very well over the years. Things to watch out for are Rear main seal leaks, oil pan gasket leaks, and rust. At this point in time, they have been beaten on, hot-rodded, and tossed around, they didn't have the best build quality from the factory, and panel gaps are a mile wide. These aren't daily drivers any longer, but they make fantastic, cheap entertainment for a bargain price. Fully restored factory fresh examples should get 20k, while a very nice reliable driver quality should fetch no more than 7K. It is important to check strut towers for rust at the seam, if there is any rust, walk away. In convertibles check the windshield and the rear torque boxes, as they tend to tweak, if they are tweaked, it has been beaten or wrecked and rebuilt.. walk away. Low mileage cars should be avoided, all of the factory seals were cork, and dry rot from sitting. However if you find a well maintained, higher mileage car, they are a bargain.. blast... and you should feel confident buying them.. This is not a beginners car, it will put you in a ditch if you aren't careful in anything but dry weather. An important note is the top on convertibles, the mechanism is hydraulic, and expensive, if it doesn't work, walk away.. The top itself is cheap, but very in-depth at re-installation, which can cost 2k for the installation.. if it needs a top, negotiate that into the cost.. a driver with a bad top is a 4-5k dollar car.. don't over pay..

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.

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. ❤️

I bought my mustang sept 1974 we have just about every option on it borgson ps 4 wheel disc brakes am fm radio air cond pony leather interior real wood steering wheel tinted glass running 17 inch shelby wheels have style 14 inch car is a driver

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.

Second excellent Mustang. First was an 02 6. This time I bought a third owner 06 V8 convertible. It needed cosmetic fixing up. No problem. Being handy with cars it worked out for 63 year old woman. Easy to change plugs ,etc. I could not afford one. But I was willing to put the little work into it and got it for $4,200 in 2020. This car has been wonderful. Black with silver Shelby stripes. Red interior

I flew all the way from Atlanta to California to pick up my classic Mustang. On the way back I drove through Phoenix Arizona to visit my Mom, "after all, I didn't know when I would see her again and she was a real fan of ZZTop, then off through Cherokee country, and we bonded through many hours of open road. I felt so free to put the top down and cruise easily at 80 or even 90 mph as the 302 just purred the song of a true Mustang. I've been driving this legend every day now get for reasons behind control we have to part. Oh and b.t.w. That was the last time I saw my Momma.

Beautiful, All original perfect paint, Excellent Interior, Overall Beautiful car that doesn’t hurt the wallet! Ready to go cruise on Sundays with the top down! Hard to find in this condition! Candy Apple Red!
