Ditto! I am sick of that lame rear set up. I just keep telling myself it's on the BOSS 302R and a similar set up on the BMW M5, so it is okay. However, we all know Ford should be throwing some monobloc 4-piston calipers on there like Corvettes and Camaros.

Which from the inside looks unchanged. Could have the B pillar behind glass from the outside though, or this car could still be a mix of the new and existing car and simply a component test bed.

Does appear slightly trimmer than the current car, though hard to accurately tell from here.
Does sound like the V8, though it would be nice were they to give the V6 a bit more voice.
While some nice Brembos out back might be nice, in reality, the rear brakes tend to be lightly tasked in a front engine, RWD car, so might in actuality be rather expensive and unnecesary overkill. But they do look cool, maybe at least some purtier calipers even if just a good 'ol sliding caliper design.
Roll-down quarter window might be a bit tricky, but perhaps a pop-out one ala my M3 would be nice for added ventilation.

The rears wouldn't be so bad if you didn't have to wind the piston back into the bore and on the passenger side rear of my car often requiring the use of a teflon faced persuade-O-tron to get things turning.
Money notwithstanding, eliminating the B-pillar would require adding significant structure at either end in order to properly "support" the habits of people who like to drive the car on the roof. I don't know if you would call the B-pillar with glass Dorito elegant but it works well and personally I like it.

From that gif, it looks like it will be a little lower in the back end which is great. The current rear is far too tall.
It also looks like the greenhouse is going to narrow, or the body be wider???
It also looks to be the lower since the padded camo is the same height as the current car. Should be an inch or two lower roof line.
All in all it appears the sleeker look that has been rumored is under there.

Both! Brake lights everywhere! One for you, and one for you and one for you! Have 'em all over so they KNOW we're stopping!
