I was just throwing it out there haha. The thing is, they're all much lighter and put the power to the ground much better. They can also make turns really well

There IS nothing better that a Coyote V8 with a Corsa or Bassani exhaust system.....full throttle tunnel music!!!!!
Because the extra cost isn't work 1, maybe 2mpg gain. You can already get 30MPG on the HWY if you drive nice with the 5.0. Hell in my truck and I get 24MPG if I drive super nice without A/C. I am getting 19.7 according to the computer with mixed driving and with A/C right not.

I'm pretty sure Ford already announced the Ecoboost Mustang few weeks ago.

What is it with people lately wanting to destroy muscle cars images with v6 engines and diesel engines? It's a muscle car folks. They became the icon they are today because of the big, powerful, throaty v8s found under their hoods. Do you think anybody in the 60s or 70s was bragging about how fast and awesome sounding their v6 was? No. They were racing and hot rodding their v8s. Quit trying to screw with that image. And to hell with that idiot in the office and his figures. I'm willing to bet money that the next guy in office gets rid of that or the guy after him.

well i'm not a sports car guy at all, but i think it would work great, yes.

i'd love to see an ECOBOOST.....6.2!!! that would be AWESOME! especially in a real sport version of the f150 (where is it, damnit??!!), with 6 speed manual trans.
and i'm sure sports car fans would love it in a mustang. oh yeah...

For one, I would calm down if I was you and second I'd remove about 99% of that post^^

A twin turboed 6.2 mustang would be AWESOME!!

Weight reduction. Corvette owners are capabable of getting 30 mpg on the hwy because of it.

The 3.5L EB Engine would make a better Mustang GT than the current 5.0L if it the EB made 400+ HP.

There, I said it. Oh yeah, and it'd probably handle better too.
