Stability Control stops you from going around corners sideways - where's the value in that?!
Mustangs are meant to be wild horses!
At least the Traction Control has an off button.

Stability Control monitors steering input and uses ABS and Traction Control to keep you going in the direction you are trying to steer.
It takes all the fun out of driving, hence the override button.

"the new GTO could be a four-door car with a coupe-like profile"??? Why is it that automakers think a four-door car is a sports car. I could never imagion buying a four-door GTO. Its sounds like something out of The Twilight Zone.

What the heck is this thing supposed to be? Cause surely it's not a GTO.
Eh. At least it only has two doors. They are moving in the right direction.

why? No offense to Doug, because that's great chop work, but that car is *still* a boring, Cavalier-esque failure waiting to happen. At least the sketch a few posts above shows some personality, the current Monaro/GTO is just purely bland and uninteresting. As long as the basic shape stays as it is, it will remain so, no matter how many swoops and scoops you give it.
