However, steering feel changes quite a bit when you are in sport mode or select something other than Comfort.
Uh, there is a difference in feel related to size between the vehicles. You know you're driving a larger vehicle in the Ford, from feel alone. Maybe not steering feel, but there is definitely that feeling that, "oh, I'm a tiny human in this large vessel", compared to the Z being a much more compact feeling, taut sports car.

Again, feel is also very subjective. I like the tighter feel of the Z. The Mustang is worlds more comfortable and spacious, though.
