[QUOTE="BillyGman, post: 2165442, member: 19962"] You can use all the fancy and eloquent words that you want, but bottom line is, that no matter how sophisticated you think the modern IRS is, it still adds 4 more U-joints to the drivetrain, and there's no way that you can deny that U-joints are the weak links in the drivetrain. So I'd rather have two of them, than six of them thankyou. you put so much trust and faith into modern technology when it comes to your precious IRS, but by the same token, since it IS 2005 like you've so boldy and sarcastically stated, why can't you believe that it just might be possible that the modern engineering practices of the day just might have come up with a live axle and suspension set-up for the 2007 GT500 that might come pretty close if not even match the handling characteristics of the two years old IRS that you're comparing it to from the 03 Cobras? The bottom line is, that you're going to twist your theories about this topic in any direction that you want to lean toward. But meanwhile you and others are whining about a how a 2007 car is going to handle when you haven't even sat in one yet, let alone had the opportunity to drive one. How unrealistic is that? Why don't you guys just wait until the car comes out, and you can test drive one before you start complaining about how it's going to handle? [/QUOTE]
