The 2021 Ford Mustang will drop some major models and option packages from its lineup, including the Performance Pack Level 2 package, as well as the Bullitt, Shelby GT350, or Shelby GT350R models. However, the lineup will also add the new Mach 1 track-focused variant. In the process, 2021 Ford Mustang prices will increase slightly across the entire lineup.

Comments
I know it wasn’t done in the past, but why hasn’t Ford ever offered a convertible Mach 1?
I asked the Mustang team about this, but was given a non-answer kind of answer.
What I personally assume to be the case – and again, this is my personal thinking – is that there simply isn’t enough demand for a track-focused car like the Mach 1. Those who want a convertible would get the non-Mach 1 Mustang GT, possible with some Ford Racing accessories, if they want it.
There’s also the issue of the Mustang Convertible being heavier than the Coupe due to the additional structural support. That, in turn, results in a more challenging project when it comes to handling / vehicle dynamics.
The same situation is seen across town at GM: the Camaro SS 1LE models are only available as coupes, not as convertibles.
Timing on the 2021 GT500?
