Well, technically I can but realistically unless all the new muscle went to turbo 4s and 6s, it's not going to happen.
For Ford to be the only one moving to a 120-150HP/L design... that's gutsy, quick-thinking and pretty much cutting edge. When was the last time we said that about Ford? :huh:

Personally I like the sound of a "Euro" Mustang - lightweight with IRS and a turbo V6 (yeah, I know - doesn't make sense on some levels) - but I don't think you'll ever see a 4 in a Mustang again ... and Adam, the last time we talked about Ford that way was the launch of the 1985 Taurus.
