AMC Pacer...LOL!!
If I am not mistaken, the tech, track, and R all have tuned suspensions due to magnaride as it is a dynamic system. They just have different programs/algorithms for the different components in each model trim. Now, the base model with static suspension (normal coil overs) probably does not because it is like any other Mustang as far as component makeup is concerned formthensuspension.
All of my Porsche's are ordered with steel brakes for a reason. They perform just as well on the track as the pccb and less expensive to maintain. I would think 95% of the garage queens have pccb's.
Interesting...if Porsche thought they were so good and a must have, then it would be standard on the RS. It is about $$$$$$.

More flexibility then with the TP car it would seem.
Also, Chevrolet just announced their new 1LE (soon to be released) will out perform the GT350 based on its testing. Who here didn't see that coming? If true or even close to true expect ADMs to drop.
Also, who here doesn't see a new Z28 coming?
Ford will surely up the game with improvements on the GT350. So it continues. All good stuff though for consumers!!!

Ford's first crack at a flat-plane crank V8 is a whopper. At a much more attainable price, the Voodoo generates BMEP within a stone's throw of those produced by manufacturers that have a lot more seat time in developing them. And it does it without the benefit of direct injection, ideal exhaust manifolds, a dry sump scavenging system or exotic materials. There's not a titanium rod or valve to be found.
All this and it can be serviced at your local Ford dealer.

The engine in the GT350 has a dry-sump? I haven't seen that anywhere. In fact, this review at Edmunds says it does not: http://www.edmunds.com/ford/mustang/...voodoo-v8.html
