I've heard that Ford has tweaked the suspension up a bit (electronically adjustable Bilstein yada yada yada), the SLA complaint is null and void. Have you seen the new GT500 btw? Looks waaaay more impressive IMHO.

Yea, I've seen it. In another post on this thread I said I'd pick the looks of the mustang over the ZL1. I'm more or less saying the ZL1 is also a car that handles well. Look at the times for the weight. I'll wait and see if the 2013 GT500 improves enough in the handling department.
I also agree with another poster that the Mustang has improved more than any other car. I didn't own domestic for many years because they were an inferior product. They no longer are. I'll look at them equally with the imports. I do NOT have brand loyalty. I buy based upon what emotionally moves me whether it be Nissan, GM, Ford, Toyota, Subie and so on. In this case the Mustang emotionally moves me more than the ZL1. We all have our opinions.
