I'm sure a hefty price tag will come with that as well. The prices are quickly getting out of the every day Mustang guy's budget. Part of the appeal of the Mustang is that it was affordable performance for just about anyone. It's no longer the case.

I completely agree. A lot of that is that fact Ford is taking steps in a new direction, and the value of the dollar too, since the value is so weak compared to other countries where the parts of produced...

Completely agree. They're already pushing it with the prices they want for a base model. I could only imagine what kind of money they'd be asking for a 5.0 pushing 475hp

That's one of the reasons I didn't get a Camaro when I had the option to. I think they finally hit a sweet spot with the current 5.0's with solid power stock and not breaking the bank completely for the average man....and if you have the extra laying around you have the Boss and the GT500 to consider
