I have a feeling that theres a reason it doesn't have one, other than cost.

Well curb weight might have something to do with that since the challenger is about 500lbs and the camaro is about 300lbs over what the mustang weights. Thats alot of extra weight to throw around. Out of the three I personally like the mustang the best for a alot of reasons, I just think a IRS would do alot of good for the car and feel its a drawback on the currrent platform when compared to the Z and other cars. For the coin a GT 500 should have IRS though, especially with that much power. But to each his own.
