I've owned both an '89GT and now an '02GT and I would definately say the '02 feels alot tighter and stable during acceleration and at higher speeds.

isn't the sn-95 platform based off of and an improved version of the fox platform?

SN95!

Many fox's I've been in at high speeds had rattles and stuff that was sketchy.

I took my '93 GT up to 130 one time. It shook so bad I never did that again.

full length subframes... either way

just becasue a car rattles doesn't mean it's unstable, we had a 86 GT with sensatracs on it that ran good between 50-90mph

Foxes are cool, but they are aerodynamic as a brick. My bone-stock 96 GT did fine at 120+ mph, surprisingly stable. Part of it is due to a stiffened platform which is why SN-95's are heavier and they are more streamlined.

i had a chance to try a top speed run on a closed road and was radar clocked @146, i swear to you the chin spoiler adds the best feeling of frontal downforce in the world
