I guess people don't understand that this is NOT a 2015 mustang, just certain parts being tested in a 2013 chassis.

Ford has been using a three spoke steering wheel in the Mustang for 50 years. They aren't going to use that steering wheel in the new Mustang. And the wall of buttons in the center console is an abomination that belongs in something designed by GM.

It is a safe bet though that Ford will use a stereo in the next Mustang that they already use in another platform.

And you would be who I am talking about not understanding Fords future plans. Ford knows the domestic market is largely indifferent to the rear drive train layout. Who isn't is the rest of the Global market whom Ford is hoping will buy into a global Mustang. They won't and never will accept a live axle. Ford would be committing sales suicide by releasing a global Mustang with a live axle.

I also think you are confusing Mustang owners with enthusiasts. I think the overwhelming majority of enthusiasts don't mind or like the live axle. The average driver doesn't know much other than their Mustang rides like a pickup and not like their ex-blandandfwdeconobox.
.

I agree 100 percent on u thoughts on fords global plans althought with how expensive gas is in Europe n Asia I doubt people will be rushing to buy a mustang....maybe a fiesta. Also I'm not confusing enthusiasts and owners. Prob 95% of enthusiasts want a live axle, the other regular mustang buyer who is not an enthusiast does not buy a mustang because of the ride. They buy them because they're cool. In other words my neighbor just bought an 09 convertible, when I asked him why he bought the mustang he said because it was red n he wanted a convert for summer. He didn't even realize it had a 4.6 in it lol.

I'd rather have the IRS....so long as it is hell-for-strong. It would accelerate (better traction), handle and ride a lot better.

I think it's safe to say that Ford would not have a problem using something other than a three spoke steering wheel in a Mustang...

New is nice, but I like the simplicity of the old-fashioned (!) debut S197 design.

I would rather have IRS as well. Hell, if it showed up in the 2014 model year I would consider upgrading if possible.

Sorry, I forgot that Ford actually made something they called a Mustang between 1970 and 2005.

The Australian Falcon IRS is supposed to be very robust and there's talk that might be the source for the next Mustang IRS.

Not even close to being a Control Blade IRS... Shocks are too large, springs too large, too much space above the diff. It's a nasty rumor but to be honest I wouldn't want it if I were you... it's robust, but extremely compromised in geometry... An analysis for your reading:

Only gripe is that this guy thinks it's the best damn thing since sliced bread to have an IRS... obviously not completely true.
