2005 softer than 2004?
Since my 2004 GT was totaled by an old lady in a Grand Marquis, I got an identical 2005, but its handling seems softer.
Grip level is OK (as far as I've pushed it in the break-in period), but there seems to be significantly more motion from left to right than I remember.
Imagination or known change?

the fact your 04 tires were worn and the new 05 tires werent probably explains 99% of it. that and all the bushings are top notch clean and everything it working as should.

epitrochoid... the 2004 was 3 months and 4000 miles old. Hardly worn tire and bushing territory.
Baron... the tires are the same Bridgestone Potenza 225/45s as was on my 2004
GuitarJunkie... Since my race tire gauge went missing at the body shop, I don't yet have one I trust, but I think they're OK. And the slop feels less road to wheel than wheel to chassis.
Jason... Pbththth!
