IMHO its people that want to take a 5,000lb brick and throw it into a turn and expect it to handle like a Mustang, that are ruining the SVT Mystique..
SVT made their vehicles to be a bit versatile.. Its all about personal preferance on what the owner of that SVT product intends to do with what they own..

hey, its still kinda a ford. you should go drive a gt, 93+ theyre pretty fun and cheap. then youll know why i said to autocross it.
lower it with quality spring/strut comb, get a strut bar to help keep things straight and you've got a car to play with for less than 2k in most cases.

Speaking of which, I just saw the newest SVTOA Enthuisiast and it has a great article about whether the GT500 Shelby is SHELBY / FORD / or SVT ...
After riding in the SHELBY GT500KR at Gingverman, I have to say it is the best handling stock vehicle from Ford that I have ever ridden in ... (And that includes the FORD GT)
