I hope you are right about the seats. If he seats suck as back in this new GT500 as they did in my '11 5.0 I'm going to find a set of the '08 Shelby GT seats and put them in the car!
Well the ones in the video are recaros - different from regular mustang seats
Here is mine from a similar camera angle- and mine are cranked all the way down- I'm 6' tall and have no issue with the height of the seat or where the steering wheel is.
My 1st thought seeing him in the car was "that seat needs to be adjusted" and then he mentioned the awkward position.
If you ordered the recaros you'll be happy.
