Regardless of whether Ford mentioned it or not this has been a complaint most of us Mustang owners have been voicing. Most (going by forums) figured that it would lose weight (it was part of the expectations). Now the car is heavier with a tiny more HP so the performance most likely will be a null for us street drivers.

I'm also curious to see how much power those rear axles will handle. I'm personally going to wait for the SVT.

And for the Mustang being lighter, this is about as much as you'll find:

Unless you go to a 1 of the 2 Mustang forums (that are worth a damn) that are the best source for info.
