If Ford manages to follow through with its plan for the 2011 Ford Mustang V6, these jokes could all go away, as massive powertrain improvements could not only lift the lesser Mustang out from the land of ridicule but also actually put it in direct competition with the excellent 2010 Chevrolet Camaro V6.

I like where Ford is going with the Mustang. Given it's good chassis as a foundation, sharing components with higher tier performance models and having a more livelier engine are great places to start. Next they should look into engineering weight reduction, not just on the body itself, but also on the interior as well. The price might go up due to this, but I wouldn't be surprised to see a Ford Racing V6 'stang in the near future.

All we need now are domestic engines with big displacements and high rev limits. Hello Deutchland? Amerika is koming... haar haar haar?

[Jutt08]

[ambientflier]

It's not a 4.0, it's a completely different 3.7.

[EvilCerealBoX]

You must be doing it wrong then. 90% of the 'maro owners I know get around 28.

[MJBCOIL]

4.0
