I get it, and if we were talking about a change to the motor management of a Tesla or a boost increase on a turbocharged car, I'd agree. But I understand it's a pandora's box.

The Ediff and how it felt last year is one reason I started looking at the new Mach 1. no ediff lol. Problem is that car is no way 10-20g more car than the 1le. Ill struggle through for now. Personally I enjoy taking a car thats "not the one" and making it or trying to make it competitive.
I agree on the Mustang pricing. In October I got to co-drive a friend's 2017 SS that started with every option from a 1LE except the eLSD and the 1LE springs and swaybars. It didn't do the kick-out thing on corner exit, but then it also understeered on the power coming out of corners so you had to wait a bit longer. The 1LE doesn't push at all when exiting corners, so if you can avoid the oversteer it can exit corners really hard. I'm sure with the recalibration it's spectacular. I went fast in that car, but it's not an apples:apples comparison because it's a CAM car with stiffer springs, 11" front wheels, camber plates, etc. It definitely gave me a glimpse of the CAM potential of our cars!
