just to throw my 2 cents in..
most young people drive the V6's (including yours truly) because they cant afford a GT or especially a Cobra. GT's cost more than 2k over the V6's and much less then that, for an 16, 17, or 18 year old guy, the insurance is a killer if they pay it them selves like i do. also, if they have smart responsible parents, they'd probably shit a brick if i came home with a GT or Cobra. but those are just my thoughts..

m&ff got a 14.9 outta the previous gen v6 stang and all they did was pull the spare tire and lower the tire pressure. That was on the 190hp 3.8 pushrod motor.

BTW, GM's pushrod non-VTEC non techno-babble horseshit motor in the new ZO6 Vette will pwn your S2000. Hell, SUPERCHARGE your S2000 and it'll still pwn it. Put a shot of NAWS on it and guess what? It'll still PWN it.
Ford...well...Ford doesn't have much ni the way of superbeast N/A motors that I know of in their cars. they prefer superchargers/turbochargers.

I guess no one gives love to the boring old non-vtec 4.6 3V SOHC ford motor that makes 300 hp on 87 octane.....

Back when I had my 2000 Nissan Altima automatic V4 and a friend with I think a 01 Mustang V6, I was able to keep ahead just about a cars length on him, being that the altima was no racing material but just a thought came to my mind, now forward ahead now, I wonder how the new 07 altima would pair with the new V6?
Altima
VQ35DE – 3.5-liter DOHC 24-valve V6
Horsepower – 270 hp @ 6,000 rpm Torque – 258 lb-ft @ 4,400 rpm
Mustang
4.0L SOHC V-6
210 hp @ 5250 RPM
240 lb-ft @ 3500 RPM
Altima

Mustang
4.0L SOHC V-6
210 hp @ 5250 RPM
240 lb-ft @ 3500 RPM
The v6 is the baseline car, and isnt given uber amounts of power so it doesnt compete with the GT. What would happen to V8 sales if it only had 20 more HP than the base v6 model?

Are you seeing the correlation between that line of thinking and why Ford is losing more moeny than Bush in an oil investment?
