They have to focus on the back seat. What else can they criticize? The car is a performance machine. Europe has to live with smaller and less effective, not us.

Too bad they didn't test the LS, then they'd not even be able to complain about a rear seat. BAZINGA!

Btw, Corey, I love it when you speak in asterisk.

All that said, I don't see the need for bashing all of Europe or the monarchy. Just this dimwitted journalist who's obviously off his mark. I sure hope Ford isn't paying any nevermind to articles like these when developing the 2015 Mustang, which is supposed to be "global". For every neighsayer whiny baby like this, there are multitudes of people who love the Mustang (esp the BOSS) just the way it is.

LMAO at europricks and various wannabe's. This is AMERICA baby!

The point is, they have nothing to do with this topic.

I'm just lucky to have two of the top 10. As my daily driver is a FR-S which is a fantastic car for the money!

How is Car and Driver still in business? They aren't objective or even rational sometimes in their car reviews, they also can't seem to write good sentences more often then not. They can keep their "well refined" taste of cars and we will keep our brutish American cars are half the price and twice as fast.

Some of these comments play into the stereotype far, far too well.

Everything he hates I love. I love that its a simple high performance car with minimal toys to go wrong as it means it will still be a working performance car 15 years down the road.
