yes on a multi link when you change the length of one arm the knuckle that holds the wheel will articulate due to the change, and the arms are designed such that they are not just straight changes to one setting. The toe arm primarily changes toe the camber arm primarily changes camber but they also effect each other as well. this way when you turn a corner you get both a change in camber according to the load to increase grip, and a change in toe so that the wheels will actually steer themselves around the corner a little bit. This is the advantage of a multilink over a double a-arm, is that it is a more dynamic design that can be tuned to adapt itself to changing driving conditions. Setting the rear toe to 0 is far from unsafe because the multilink setup is designed to add a tremendous amount of camber as the wheel is loaded. Setting the camber down in the rear increases the handling balance because from the factory the car likes to understeer.
The suspension on this car is its party piece, it isn't particularly light, nor is it particularly powerfull, but it does have one hell of a suspension setup and the rest of the car is "good enough". Most people don't really appreciate what the 370 is until the take it to a road course and find out it is indeed fast as ****.
