Pretty sick! And it will yet still be lighter than the ZL1. Here is my wishlist of upgrades:

- Direct Fuel Injection
- TiVCT
- 1 Piece Carbon Fiber Driveshaft
- Adjustable suspension
- Carbon Ceramic Brake Factory option
- Fore and Aft adjustable headrests
- Folding Side mirrors
- Dial out wheel hop symptoms entirely
- Make it lighter than the current GT500

It NEEDS IRS

Hell no. I would rather hammer my nuts with a mallet than Ford put IRS in another Mustang. Talk about killing a great design for something new requiring years of refinement and much costlier to upgrade than the solid axle setup. Complete mood killer.....:nonono:

Did we not learn the lesson first time around?

+1. Forged H beams and Forged slugs. I don't really care otherwise.
If It has the same rods, it will be limited no matter what blower they put on it.
The 5.8 rumor is nice, but without 4340 forged rods, forget it. We know they are going to ask all the money for it, so no point in saving a few hundred bucks, as they are worth thousands to duplicate.

I would like to see the "PP" or "track pack" come with some GOOD R compounds, like the r88, as well as a good diff. I don't see why the Performance Pack of a 53k mustang has to spin the inside tire on the track. That is more than a little ridiculous.

If the rods are not 4340, i am not "upgrading". If they are, the thousands I would spend on a built motor could go towards the purchase price/upgrade fee :)
