I hope FORD puts in more power soon! Nissan has a mini van with 245 HP now! The v-6 mustang needs to be pumped up big time. Think of it, a sports car that can be flat out wipped by mom in her mini van. The v-six stangs need to be 250 hp and the GT's 300 to 320 with the Cobra 390+. I may just be dreaming and maybe the new breed of sixes with 240 + HP may not be able to compare to a sports car (mustang) with less HP but come on! a sports car should have it where it counts, in the HP department! The new stock GT's with 260HP are being outdone ( in HP ratings which I know are dependent on many factors to put that HP to use) by MANY V-6 ricer cars, to numerous to name that have HP ratings of over 260HP. I don't mind being whipped by a turbo v-6 but when grandma leaves me in the dust with her new VW something is wrong! We need MORE STOCK POWER!!!
