- Electronic e-brake
- 1 inch less of headroom according to specs
- Interior that captures a luxury car feel but loses the retro muscle car feeling entirely
- What looks like somehow even less trunk room
- No more 4 pack gauge cluster option, everything is done via screens
- Fat C pillar which will cause even more blind spots and frankly conflicts with the car's body lines... because those lines are basically from the Gen 5
- Electronic e-brake...

Ok, first you said electronic ebrake twice. Not sure why this would ever be an issue.

4 pack gage cluster that you have to look down below the radio to see?

And the only retro part of the 5th gen interior was it's Spartan cheapness.

But can really disagree with your comments. I just don't see not having a big honking brake lever is a big deal at all.

Trunk space could be a deal breaker for me. Need to get 2 sets of clubs in there and it was a tight fit with the current car.

Visibility? Well it can be a big deal and I see forward being better with rear being not improved at all.
