Lol, was just about to post that.
interesting how they dialed back the v6 numbers to help promote the eco boost.

3700 lb WTF. That is huge, why do they keep getting heavier. Completely turns me off, after having a lighter car with less power it is way more fun to drive. A vert must tip in near 3850-3900 add a blower and over 4000lb. That sucks .

If the next gen Camaro is lighter with the new platform (as its supposed to be), Ford will have some splaining to do.

I would still like to try driving one of those higher horsepower, better handling, heavier Mustangs, lol, all the Mustangs I've driven have all been over 20 years old.

TBH I was really hoping for more power out of the GT... I mean at least somewhere between 440 and 450 hp.
They made us wait how long to tell us about a 15 hp increase... I find that disappointing.
I was honestly considering trading my 2011 GT for a new 15. But as of right now, I think I'll keep mine... I'll wait and see what the special editions have to offer.

The Ecoboost seems like it'll be a nice little engine. But for me it's a V8 or nothing...

As for the V6, how did it loose 5 hp?? I mean, I guess they wanted to put a bit more room between the Ecoboost and the V6. But as models go forward so should the performance numbers.
