Rear side windows
I really love my 5th gen, but I wish GM could have came up with a way to make the rear windows roll down. I know there were safety reasons keeping them from making it happen. I just think the first gen looked so good with all the windows down. Does anyone else feel the same ?

I like the look as well. Lucky for me I still have my 1st gen.

I agree, it wouldve been kinda cool. Im sure they probly thought about that when they were designing it. Probly would have made it happen if they could.

Look at the '06 5th gen silver concept which is a true 'hardtop' just like the '67-'69. That roofline was 1000% better looking IMO. It's just not as sleek looking with the B pillar.

They are pretty useless. I don't really see when I would roll mine down and use them. Only time would be at shows maybe, and even then I almost never roll my windows down.
I think it's good they didn't bother with it. I've got a '67 and '68 mustang and the roll down rear windows are a PITA so far. :(

I never sit in the back seat so who cares.
As far as looks go, I don't see it.
