The dual clutch unit is slated mostly for their economy models. There is no guarantee that it will be able to handle the power or torque of a V-8 or turbo 6 engine. Hopefully they have kept that in mind as an ecoboost Mustang with a dual-clutch is interesting. The lack of an IRS is still a concern.

I’d like to see Ford bring over the Euro Focus or whatever that new model (can remember the name, the concept was a candy red color) that is replacing it with 350-400hp and AWD. I bet they offer that with the 2010 Fusion SVO/SHO which will handle well as it’s basically a Mazda 6 platform.
