. You’d need to be a pretty heartless soul not to enjoy the charms and character of the world’s biggest-selling sports car . In a world of turbocharged, all-wheel-drive, double-clutched coupes derived from saloons and estates cars, the Mustang has always stood out as the alternative choice, and in our book a very good one at that.

There are contrasts to how they like to be driven, too. On the road the RC F rewards precision with a front end that reacts to clean inputs and delivers you at the apex as intended, the nose grabbing onto your chosen line. The more you lean on the front, the more feel flows the other away; in fact, once you know there’s more chatter available you wish the conversation started earlier and at lower speeds.
