Following last week's lonesome Mustang hood story, another MustangForums.com member walked into a 2010 Mustang photo opportunity. It seems Ford is taking a grassroots marketing approach to promote the 2010 Mustang teaser microsite by parading a heavily camouflaged prototype at what appears to be a street fair in an unknown American city. From the 2010 Mustang microsite, countdown to the full unveiling at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November has already begun. Stay tun

Otherwise, based on what I see, especially from Torque Report yesterday, this car is a rehashed POS as the current model out now.
In fact sometimes I feel American cars get a bad and unjustified press about their handling. Conversely, many (Euro) Toyotas I've driven (with a few exceptions) are much, much worse, but no one ever mentions anything about that!
BUT, lets face it, they are two of the most lousy drivers you can find, with the best motoring job in the world! Who said life was fair?
Plus, a stronger bodyshell, a 31% improvement in chassis rigidity, the front axle being moved forwards (improving the front-rear weight distribution to almost 52:48), and the wheels being pushed further apart, all improved stability, handling and ride.
Thus, at the limit, it corners with great confidence (unlike its nervous predecessor), thanks in part to the Panhard rods which keep the rear wheels firmly planted to the road, and the rock solid chassis. In fact, the live-axle is more refined than expected and on a smooth road, you’ll be hard pressed to tell which suspension it uses. It may not have the agility of the very best, but it's not far off.
My friend has a 2005 model and complains about the ride. I used a 2008 model but did not agree with his findings.
