The no track issue is a big one for me. Also the flex in the body. I am sure it is better than the previous, but, 500lb/ft torque will still twist it a little. That heavier front end will probably be more noticeable in the vert also.

Why would it be more noticeable in a vert?

Read the motortrend article. It states that Ford doesn't have any current plans to build a ragtop for the 2007MY. Ugh..

I'm just guessing, but, more body flex in turns. Heavier front end = more flex.
