Top 10 Cars for Summer Under $30,000

3. V6 Mustang Convertible

Some people won’t be satisfied with the 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine found under MX-5’s hood. There’s an obvious alternative, too. It comes from Ford.

Take a look at the six-cylinder Mustang if you haven’t in a while. It isn’t pathetic anymore. The 3.7-liter V6 makes 305 hp and 280 lb-ft of torque. That won’t offer as much pull off the line as old 4.6-liter GT models did, but its damn close in horsepower.

Not only that, but a V6 convertible with a six-speed manual comes in at $27,995.
