Here's how I see it: Ford isn't going to rock the boat as it is doing fine sales wise. Also, the F-Bodies are about to disappear for a while so there basically is no competition. Comparing a Corvette to a Mustang isn't really a fair comparison. While it would be nice to see a new NA factory Mustang that could compete with a Vette, I don't think that day will be anywhere in the near future
unless the Stang loses the back seat and jumps up into basically the same price bracket where I don't think the Stang would do as well. Numbers don't lie and Ford knows that they are doing well enough with the 4.6. Don't be surprised though if the Blue Oval comes out with a bigger engine when the F-bods return.....
