[QUOTE="Formula51, post: 9569964, member: 19833"] It all depends on how much weight they can save from the new platform. Based on the Camaro's IRS weight, the existing Mustang platform with an IRS would weight close to 3,800lbs in the GT. Similarly, the existing Camaro with SRA would weigh under 3,700lbs. Thus, the IRS and the slight difference in dimensions looks to be really what separates the two in terms of weight. Not the chassis like many assume. What cars would the Mustang shares its new platform with? The Camaro should be on Alpha by 2015 which should be lighter and smaller and will be shared with Cadillac and Buick models. Therefore, I predict that if Mustang gets IRS on its next platform and Camaro is built on Alpha that the weight difference between the two will be negligible. Perhaps this will make the 2011 to 2013/14 Mustangs very desirable. [/QUOTE]
