This might only be important to those who drive on the track,drag race or on expressways at higher speeds.

Its completely different depending on what kind of racing.....aerodynamic requirements are different for drag racing then road racing....

Also which variations of which car?

I mean the cars are basically the same.....

For handling (according to AI).....

The 2023 Ford Mustang GT exhibits lateral acceleration performance on a skidpad ranging from 0.99 g to 1.11 g, depending on the configuration and tire type.

The 2024 Mustang GT exhibits a lateral g-force of 0.96 g during skidpad testing. This figure is equal to that of an even heavier, automatic 2019 non-Performance GT Convertible, and it's slightly lower than the 1.06 g average achieved by the 2018 GT Performance.

The 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R's lateral G-force is 1.62g at 120 mph.

The 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse exhibits impressive lateral acceleration, with the Handling Pack equipped model achieving over 1.3 gs. The standard model without the Handling Pack achieves a lateral grip of around 1.14 g.

Drag (according to AI)

The 2019 Ford Mustang's drag coefficient is around 0.38. This is a significant improvement from previous generations, thanks to aerodynamic refinements like a revised grille and optional spoiler.

The 2024 Ford Mustang boasts a drag coefficient of 0.37

so basically the same

will also add- the track versions- Dark Horse HP/ GT350R exc will give up aerodynamics in order to create more downforce
