She’s a beauty, but can she go around a corner without the rear end trying to race the front there?

I hope not.

That was part of the fun of the old cars, having the back-end swing in front of the front-end, and then swing back and punch it.

Nothing like 300+ horsepower combined with shitty brakes and handling. I'm surprised I survived some of my early cars.

Of course not.

But unpredictable squirrely handling is all part of the fun of owning a massively over-powered ‘pony’ car.

PS - Of course, compared to the original V8 Mustangs, the new one’s handle like Lotus Elans.

If she can’t she will just be one of those Corvairs. LOL
