so you're telling us the cobra coupe is heavier than the convertible WS6, and that all the extra boat anchors (like IRS which gets removed by people making power anyway) makes that weight worth it?
We could debate about IRS all day but Im not going to do that. I LOVE IRS, the ride quality is 1000X better and the handling is sooo much better than any stock solid axle F-body or Mustang it almost has a luxury feel to it (I know luxary and mustang dont go in the same sentence to well, but thats how I feel about it). I know Kevin isnt a fan of IRS because of the weight, but I am. I will never swap it out. The reason many people that swap it out isnt because of weight its because they break half-shafts and it cost $$$ to replace or "Beef up" Personally I would rather have a beefed up IRS than have a solid axle.
