They almost tried something crazy for the SN95 and they never followed through. We'll see I guess.

They are gonna eff it up with an IRS. Oh well, hopefully it still has a 5.0

5.0 is supposed to have DI and 460 hp. 3200-3400 lbs. The size of the Hyundai Genesis coupe.

i dont like the thought of this... ill bet that it looks like a steaming pile

That actually sounds pretty good...hopefully they don't make it look like ass. And hopefully they put a beefy IRS/axles in it that will handle some power.

Make it even lighter with an ecoboost v6 and aluminum chassis. If they could get it down to 3000-3200 lbs and 50/50 weight distribution, I would not care if it had a solid axle or not. Sell me a mustang that can run mid 11's with a tune and get around 33-35 MPG and you have done a good job.

Good, I hate the retro mustang look.

As long as the change the looks of the rear of the car we should be O.K. !!

lmfao your whole post sounds like your talking about 5 different cars. no way ford is gonna make any of those 2 things happen.

I lost interest after reading the IRS part.

 

[kingnut]

would be nice to see the stang go to a more futuristic look. also making it a little smaller and lighter would be great.

Aluminum is not likely with a unibody.

I think 3400# would be a good, realistic weight for a 2+2 coupe with a V8

2014.5 Version maybe???
50 year anniversary!!!!

 

[Fox-4]

I can't wait to see what they do!

[Ry_Trapp0]

I agree. If Ford must have IRS, make it optional!

:lol:

if you think the cobra looks aggressive then ok...... but throw it next to a WS6 and the cobra will slither away in hurry, i wish io could have a ws6 with a cobra motor
