It doesn't need to handle as well to totally dust a Z. The fact that's it's even close is what causes it to be such a blowout.

No I dont believe it was the 2011. They put it on the dyno and then afterwards markered in "Almost" next to the 500HP stripe on the bottom. I havent read anything on the 2011 so they must of made some major changes to the suspension, cause when they took it through the hammerhead it was almost in the grass on the model they were testing. Ill see if I can find the episode and find out which model they were reviewing.

Ah, the older GT500s. Yeah, the 05-10 GT500s were kind of whack. Too much power for the suspension. The 2011s are quite different, though. Very quick.

The only Top Gear Mustang review I remember was of the '05 that Hammond drove around the English countryside.
