As a new member to this forum and new '02 GT owner, I was wondering what some of your thoughts were on the subject of handling. I am a little dissapointed that the car doesn't handle better than it does. It's a great ride, however, my wifes stock 1998 SVT Contour will run circles around this thing when it comes to handling. The contour also brakes better, but that could be attributed to the handling also. I don't intend to go overboard with mods on the whole car, but I would like a better handling ride. I am willing to change springs, shocks, and sway bars; does anyone have any suggestions for this setup? I was thinking of the springs and shocks from the Bullitt...maybe...does anyone have any experiences in this area?

Thanks
