The Mustang visibility issue sounds exactly like a Challenger I had for a rental last year, the monstrous c-pillars hid entire cars. I drove it in Phoenix rush hour traffic and was terrified to even change lanes.

I had a 2012 Mustang V6 convertible a few months ago as a rental, overall impressions were mixed. The V6 is a fantastic motor......mated to a crapbox of an automatic. It was obviously tuned for MPG, content to lug the engine at 1000 RPM until you shove the gas pedal through the floor prompting a delayed 3 gear downshift. The suspension was 100% highway cruiser, I drove some of the national forest W of Tucson and it bobbed and weaved like a Buick. The dash design is a huge improvement over past Mustangs, but the door panels were still composed of hard, cheap plastic. With a 420 HP V8 and a decent suspension it would have been fun, but in basic guise......not so much.
