How about they bring back the glass roof?
I wouldn't care about that, but others might. I want the fresh air & sunshine. I want a bit of the convertible experience, without having the structural integrity of a soggy tortilla.

Buy a vert and never lower the top. Boom notchback. BTW fastback has been called 'sportsroof' bt Ford since 1970 iirc.

I dig...T-top? T-tops are cool :sunglasses:
A sunroof (moonroof? WTF is the difference? Dunno?) is my jam. T-tops are.....very, very 1970s/80s.

I think a moonroof doesn't open? I'm going to keep this going...and offer up a targa top.
I think a sunroof is metal, and a moonroof is glass? Or vice-versa? Something like that.

No targa top. Want structural rigidity, and one button ease.

I

The '69 through '73 models were known as Sportsroofs. The SN95s and S197s were Coupes, according to Ford, and then they stated calling the S550 a Fastback for the first time since the '68. Personally, I think Fastback is a sexy name (if a description of a roofline can be sexy!)

Curved roof. They wanted the curved roof.
I've never seen a curved glass sun/moon roof, except maybe on a 911, AFAIK.

And if you look at the Mustang's roof, it's really curved. Not a little, a lot. Big ol' arc goin' on there.

I think they should have both, plus a convertible option just like they were back in the sixties and in the eighties with the fox body. But no hatchback, make it a real fastback.

They should make a 4 door option.

5 door? A 4 door with a real hatch-back? A diesel-electric motor?
