in a straight line yes but the mustang corners like a brick..... and beemers are renouned for cornering

unless its the new roush one with fully independant suspension and not the live rear suspension the normal ones have inc the shelby

A live axle doesn't automatically mean worse handling. The 82-2002 F-bodies are quick and stable, but use a live axle 3link setup. The 4 link setup the Fox body and SN-95 Mustangs have is not very good at cornering but does excel at straight line grip. The downsides to live axles is that rough, uneven pavement can unsettle the rear end of the car because the rear tires are linked together.

I say Saleen, has a better reputation with mustangs than Roush does.
