Portage hasn’t yet released control weight or weight dissemination numbers for the 2010 GT500, but at roughly 3900 pounds, the 2008 GT500 amounted to something greater than 300 pounds heavier than the Mustang GT, and worse yet, the greater part of that united weight sat on the front pivot, resulting in a pushy 57.5/42.3 front/rear weight dispersion (vs. The horse GT's more nonpartisan 52.5/47.5). It's not amazing that the GT500 has been less than energetic to move each and every time we’ve attempted to get jiggy with it, displaying pronounced figure movements while turning and braking and shuddering violently over knocks. Convertible samples have proven considerably more unruly.
All that expressed, today's Mustang builds merit some forceful credit for transforming the 2010 Mustang into an energizing country byway romper, particularly as a GT with the Track Pack. Undercarriage changes for the 2010 GT500 carry it closer to that of the hard-edged KR, incorporating springs and damper settings stated to preferred control primary form movements. Our anticipations are hence raised, and we are inquisitive to view how far the SVT crew has gone to beguiling this Cobra. We’ll moreover be searching for a clutch that doesn’t brutalize one's other side leg following several moments of stop-and-go activity.
