Well now 500 hp wouldn't be very economical now would it???

Good point, but also bad point. Ford doesn't want a 500 hp car in the mustang, it just wouldn't sell....what old lady, old gramps would want a 500 hp monster?? What sane mom and dad would buy a 500 hp car for their son or daughter??? I think that if Ford wanted a 500 hp car, they could very easily build one.
