Hell yeah!

 

[rx7_ted]

oooh riiight~~

 

[NecroJoe]

Mustang 'vert with a 5.0?

This guy's happy:

 

[LeVeL]

the 5.0 is back! time to grow a mullet

 

[MadCat360]

Being a smaller engine it'll rev higher too (than the Chevy and the Dodge).

 

[Wizegui]

Mmmmm a free revving 5.0L V8 Mustang with over 400 hp and less weight than a Camaro or a Challenger? I approve of that

 

[NecroJoe]

Wow...at least a full liter down on displacement, only short 13hp, and undercuts by weight by at LEAST a hundred or two lbs, no doubt. Niiiice.

 

[Ilpav]

Nice!

I was wondering when they would finally retire that (comparatively) weak 4.6 (only 300 hp).

 

[Paul_The_Aussie]

Nice, we Aussies will prob getting that engine for the Falcon here in 2011/2012.

 

[gaasc]

I'm kinda hoping the Cali Highway patrol buy those, then bust a 911, also it needs more 5.0 badges.

 

[Mitlov]

My wife has demanded that we get one (specifically, an MT coupe).

Did I mention that my wife kicks ass?

 

[JipJopJones]

Yeah! Return of the 5.0 badging! SAWHEET

Your wife kicks ass!

I wonder if they'll do IRS next year as well. Prolly not.

Did I mention that my wife kicks ass?

No, but you did strongly imply it.

 

[JohnnyRacer]

You know, if this new gig goes well enough, I may just save my pennies for this as a DD.

 

[NecroJoe]

I just wanna give ford NA a great big hug.

 

[HatePersonified]

Cheaters!


(Everyone knows true muscle cars have pushrods!)

 

[argatoga]

The Camaro will have its ass handed to it now. The SS isn't that much faster than the GT right now even with an extra 100 or so hp.
