Not sure on a GT500. when they changed to the aluminum block in the GT500 it finally got decent handling reviews. Im not a fan of the new camero, it does look pretty good and they sell great but just not a drivers car. I like the feel of my Z. I would love to drive one of these new Boss' though. When will Ford stop acting like Porsche and change the rear suspension from live axle to a independent setup. How much better would the car be?? |

Though I think it's been confirmed that the next generation Mustangs are going to be a few hundred lbs lighter than current and will be equipped with IRS.

I need to find an intermediary willing to hold it for 30 days then get an Altima, though.

The difference really isn't that big. Like I've said a few times before, not all IRS is created equal. Ever compare the Z to the Cayman S? There's quite a big difference in how the two cars perform over uneven surfaces.
