I've just researched this. The biggest differences between the China-spec Mustang and the US-spec one are the configurations and tuning. Many US-spec models come with basic configurations, lacking even heated seats and featuring only single-zone air conditioning. The China-spec version comes standard with leather seats and dual-zone air conditioning. In terms of handling, the China-spec chassis is tuned softer, making it more suitable for rough roads in China, but it tends to wobble when cornering. The US-spec retains the original firm suspension, which can jolt your phone flying over speed bumps. The US-spec infotainment system is entirely in English, and the navigation doesn't work, requiring an additional module. A friend of mine bought a US-spec model to save money, but ended up disabling the active noise cancellation when flashing the Chinese system, and now his ears buzz on the highway.
