no i think it is being built for straight line performance...but not only. i think that the way it handles will not be a key factor in the build of this car. i dont think handling will play a huge role in the build or the people buying ths car. there are very few people who buy a mustang because it handles so well. they buy it because it has very good HP for very minute money and the GT500 will take this to a new level.

im not at all inferring that the car will handle like a mini van, i am simply saying that it will not compete with cars way out of its class. these cars we are speaking of will compete with $150k+ exotics in all-around performance.

i was very surprised at how well the mustang handles and im sure the GT500 will be no different but i will and never will expect to compete with the cars mentioned above.
