No more V8's would kill the Mustang... My 2005 V6 was 310RWHP and ran
12.8 @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
107... and as much as I loved the car, i still missed the sound
and feel of a V8... Next car will be a V8...
BTW... has the EcoBoost for the 2010 Mustang really been confirmed?
2010 will also most likely see the return of the 5.0... or maybe
2011... but I seriously doubt Ford will drop the V8..
