I noticed the distance between the 1/4 window and the upper character line when I first saw the unpadded camo'ed cars.
I could tell they moved the upper rear quarter character line down AND changed the radius. The crease above the wheel arch is gone. The gills are gone.
And the 1/4 window looks like one from a mid-'70s Ford Falcon from Australia.
I said it before and I'll say it again. They softened the car. I could see it when those first unpadded cars hit the streets.
The stuff that made the 5th gen so edgy and muscular is gone.
