When I was researching the mustang as training wheels for my eventual Camaro (I've only driven fwd cars until last year and didn't want my first rwd car to be over 400 hp) I found an overall resistance to the IRS setup. It seems people got turned off the IRS with the Cobra, where they tried to squeeze the IRS into the same place as their solid axle to save money. It ran horribly, and now every time you bring up an IRS in a Mustang forum, they say "keep that PoS out of my car" or "not worth the price increase". Ford is simply listening to their fans and building accordingly, that is all.
