Much as I would like a smaller mustang again (we like the size of our 97 GT compared to our 2015 GT) how do you think Ford could shrink the S650 from S550 dimensions and still "fit" American buyers while keeping "sporty 2 door coupe" styling and having enough room for performance size wheels, tires, brakes, etc? Give up on the back seat and/or trunk, at least in hybrid versions?I expect it will be somewhere between SN95 and S550 size-wise, and it will hopefully get the F150 aluminum chassis treatment. Design-wise, I look at the facelift for 2018, and keep thinking about the 4 gen Camaro versus the 5th gen. I hope they keep more Mustang elements in the design than they did with the Foxbody. I do think the S650 may have a lot of the same design elements as an Aston Martin -- that wouldn't be so bad. Does anyone know who is on the design team, and what other projects they have worked on? I do like the retro rendering -- the last on Topnotch posted -- I could really go for that! More S197 than S197, more S550 than S550.
