Tony,  I'm sure you are right, but I also remember a Car & Driver, Motor 
Trend or another magazine pronouncing the '65 coupe "stiffer" than the EM.  
Especially the convertible.  It is hearsay until I find the magazine (don't hold 
your breath), but the LM were stiff cars--they just didn't SOUND as tight.
