The only annoying thing is that the windshield is so short, you can't see the overhead stoplights if you are the first car in the line. You have lean way forward and look up. The A pillars can block certain dangers as well...again, you get used to it. But its no wonder the car mag reviewers complain because they don't have the car on the street long enough to get used to it.

Visibility is the compromise for having the coolest looking muscle car on the road. The compliments, the thumbs up, the gas station conversations, etc. It’s the price we pay. Mustangs look ho-hum. Enough said.
I feel this pretty much sums it well nice, just got to get used to it. If you're having second doubts go try and sit in one and have the sales person or parent walk around the car so you get an idea of visibility. Thats if you cant test drive it of course.
