Nothing I can post will make any difference, but isn't interesting that the gossip about the next Mustang have it on and IRS?
BS. Both the modern boss and 2011+ gt500 will smoke the terminator around any road course and it's not just because of power or braking. I have taken all three out at mid-ohio and both the boss and 2011+ gt500 are much more confidence inspiring, controlled, and better gripped on track than the 03-04 cobra. That's not to say IRS doesn't have handling advantages over SRA, but to say the 03-04 cobra is the best handling mustang ever is just wrong. Maybe the Cobra R, but then again you'd have to compare that to the 302 S and R. . .
