I guess I see things differently than you.

I see I4 and V6 Mustangs differently: Sweet looking cars, with decent pickup, better gas mileage than a V8, and lower insurance. Perfect for someone like me, who needs a car that gets 25+ miles per gallon and can't pay insurance out the *** every month, buy wants something with acceptable acceleration, handling, and good looks. And I've loved Mustangs since I was 5 or 6.

If I could afford a car built for speed and only speed, I wouldn't consider a V6 or I4 Mustang (maybe an SVO or other factory turbo'd car), I'd probably buy a GT and have a car just as fast as a well modded V6 right from the start. A V8 vs a V6 with equal mods will win every time.

But I guess I understand where you're coming from... Taking the role of the "underdog" V6 and making it faster than a V8. Alot of people enjoy this (import scene with I4s) but its not my ballgame.
