Visibility is much better than anticipated. Compact interior dimensions, large greenhouse and cockpit dash layout give the impression of a smaller car. Disc changer skipped over a security gate track under hard acceleration. We're not fans of interior wood, but here it certainly compliments the caramel leather interior. OK, after listening to CD's on the JBL system, we have to say that this stereo is the equal to the Mach 460.
Car is tomblike on highway, with just a hint of wind roar around the A-pillars and mirrors.
Solidly constructed, like other recent Ford products. Odd sticky plastic in the seam on the right side of the console came out. Very few of the stitches were made successfully. Trunk is shallow but deep, which is OK, as long as bulky items aren't being carried. Amazing how a car's styling can be overwrought and dull at the same time.
