Interesting new info by Automobile mag saying next gen GT500 will drop its 5.8L because it can't fit it. Will get a Ecoboost Coyote instead.
The May 2013 Issue of Automobile Magazine is out and the publication contains some interesting new speculation about the 2015 Mustang. Some of this information has been known and/or widely speculated while other info is new.
Highlights:
The 2015 Mustang will premiere at the New York Auto Show on April 16 or 17, 2014.
It will be slightly smaller and lighter and come close to retaining the current car's muscularity.
The current 5.8L V8 in the GT500 will not fit in the slimmer 2015 Mustang.
It will have an independent rear suspension (IRS).
The article also suggests that 6 (yes, six) different engine options will be available for the s550:
EcoBoost 5.0 Coyote Engine for the GT500
N/A 5.0 Coyote Engine for the Boss 302 (and presumably the GT)
EcoBoost 3.5L V6
N/A 3.7L V6
EcoBoost 2.0L 4-cylinder
