It's not like if they made the Cobra a V10, you could only get a V10 Mustang. There would still be V8 GT and Mach 1 stangs, and the V6 base car.

Can you imagine what kind of stuff the aftermarket companies would be turning out for that engine.
I like to think about a Kenne Bell on this engine.......
Probably the same kind of stuff the aftermarket has now. Not much.JaysGreenLX said:I would say 427ci V10.

You can forget a throaty sounding exhaust...have you heard a viper before?

i4power said:Uhh, it DOESN'T. Have you seen the video? I've been trying to upload it, but my server is being dumb. It sounds nothing like a Viper. I can't really describe it, you'll have to hear it for yourself. But trust me, it sounds BADASS.
kirkyg said:go buy a damn ls1 if all you care about is speed...you can make anything fast but you can't make anything look good

tylers65 said:So what does a V-10 have to do with looks?
CdnNavybob said:I think if it's light enough, a V10 is a good idea. The last thing we need is a heavier Mustang that's more nose heavy! There's already rumor that the weight of the new Stangs are going to be even higher than before. From Fords point of view, which would be cheaper to produce, a naturally aspirated V10 or a Forced Induction V8? If it's true that the V10 weighs less than the current SC V8, I'll be all over it. If it's a brick, they can keep it.
And as for all the heritage crap, the name and the looks are the heritage. What's inside is guided by technology. Porsche said flat out years ago that if they had listened to all the people who whined about heritage when they were redoing the internals of the 911, they'd be out of business right now. How much business would Ford lose if they were still running carbourated 302s? Sure, the fanatics and performance addicts would love it, but the average Joe would laugh and walk away.
kirkyg said:the 911 isn't sold based on heritage its sold to a bunch of rich people that just want a nice car that is pretty quick. The mustang is sold for the most part on its heritage...its classic muscle sound and sex appeal. If you take those two things away they better be ready to go luxury with it because otherwise it'll be a failure.
