I'm going to defend GoAuto on this one. Ford have moved to global platforms and do not have a large, RWD platform; the Mustang wheelbase is too short and Australia is the only Ford market with a current, large RWD sedan. The development costs required to provide variable wheelbase length for the Mustang platform will not be justified just for Australia. The current trend is for FWD vehicles with flexibility for AWD.
