Mine parks next to my 69 in the garage. Yes it is a Much larger car however what people dont seem to get is the reason this car got larger better yet heavier is due to the safety equipment it had to gain. Mustangs time will come. Its not Far off from the Mustang in the weight department like yall think.

curtain airbags
Brembos
20 inch wheels
Factory Exhaust ( especially the L99 )

And dont listen to that weight that is printed inside the drivers door mine was 63 lbs less that what that siad with a full tank of Gas.

I weighed it at a truck stop on one of there scales


Yes it got larger in size however look at all trucks and cars today they are all Bigger looking.
The Mustang may not get bigger but she will gain some weight otherwise it wont fit saftey standard for the future.
