Longer - Wider - Lower Stuck in the '60s?

Ford must have thought that Gen-5 Camaro had it right, after all! Smaller windows, the thing Ford fanboyz complained about in the Camaro, are now included in the Mustang, exacerbated by a lower seating position and less helmet room.

Now they'll find out that a wider-lower car, especially equipped with IRS, actually handles better with a lower center of gravity.

Welcome to the 21st Century, Ford!

As to the absence of DI in the Base GT, there have to be some elements left for their up-priced $pecial Edition$.
