Nope, but you sure can scare them out of the showroom showing them the 10" side windows. There are people who literally wont even drive the car once they sit in it. Why? Visibility.
The side profile of the car is a CHOICE. It could be changed and it wasnt. That was GMs choice. They have to live with it.
It still goes to show that the Camaro will get around 80-85k sales this year in the US while the Mustang will garner some 120-125k. Best selling car in its class last generation has a great ring to it. Why not best selling sports car?
At the end of the day visibility is compromised by the design. You literally cant deny that. That doesnt mean that you cant see out of the car or that its a fail but that GM made a conscious decision to alienate potential buyers by targeting customers it already had. Pretending its not an issue to brand new customers is taking an head in the sand approach.
