They keep the live axle to keep cost down. It's already a $50 grand mustang so I guess they didn't want to make it more expensive. Atleast they found a way to drop some weight and it looks pretty good. However, even Ford acknowledges that the live axle is inferior and stated that the next mustang will have an IRS. The best mustang cobra ever produced (03-04) were IRS and given the right mods with still run better than the GT500's.
