I was talking to a guy at work the other day, and the topic of cars came up, and he recently got an '04 Mustang GT. So during our discussion he was dogging on the F-body, and he admitted that I'd spank him in a drag race, but he bought the car for the handling not for drag racing.

So my question is do the GTs really handle any better than an F-body? I was under the impression that they both handled fairly equally, both are addequate and both can be improved on. I don't hear much talk about the rustangs handling, so I don't know much about them.

What is your feeling, knowledge, and/or experience with them handling wise in comparison to an F-body?

Obvious question...

Even though it's been 10 years since the 4th gen emerged, why is the Mustang AX / RR community still so strong?

When the 3rd gen was still in production, the only fundamental suspension difference was in the rear. But then the 4th gen emerged with a double front a-arm design. You would think that most serious gearheads and racers would look at the two platforms and switch to the F-body... especially when the price of buying a used vehicle is about the same for both. But instead, sites like corner-carvers give me the impression that Mustangs are still raced FAR more than F-bodies.

Is it just because of greater overall Mustang sales? Or am I missing something?
