I love the C7, but I'm waiting for the 2015 Mustang to show it's cards before I make the leap to a new car. I love my GT and it will definitely hold me over for a while, but the Coyote is getting DI and anywhere between 450 to 475hp, the new Mustang is rumored to be in the ball park of about 3,400 pounds, and if Ford get the IRS right, that will be the next car for me.

I initially was excited about rumors of CBIRS, but from all the info slowly leaking out these days it looks like they took it a step even further than that by choosing to utilize a ILIRS setup. I'm pretty sure one of these will be parked right next to my Terminator when the time comes.

Yeah the vette is better able to utilize its power in the quarter but we all know what happens once a gt500 catches traction and starts rolling.....
