I use to sell brand new mustang GT's off the lot, when you say it feels better(ride)in any which way shape or form than a 99+ CSVT, one thing comes to mind... you must be on crack! At high speeds my CSVT feels sooooo much better than a GT, it's much more stable..both in stock form. With upgrades the CSVT will just flat out run circles (handling wise) around the stang. I'm driven more than my share of GT's and as far as ride and handling I would have to disagree. On another point congratulations on your puchase.
