who said it was going to be a new block and everything built from the ground up?
It's funny that people believe this kind of stuff. Does anyone remember the "Hurricane" four years ago?
And do you remember the "Hurricane" became re-named the Boss 6.2L which is already in the F-series super duty trucks, and will also be included in the 2010 F-150 Raptor. Real funny indeed, isn't it
Build your own!
... grab a tired V6 Deluxe and drop-in a stroked crate motor ...
(I'm kind'a surprised that this isn't happening already)
Yeah I think what it comes down to is people will believe anything. It like this I could log onto a forum say I work for ford and say all sorts of stuff and people will believe becasue they want to. Than the people who believe this person will swear up and down that they personally know this person and than when the time comes for these mustangs to come out they don't and these people that supposedly work at ford are no where to be found.
Whatever dude, time will tell
Why wait for Ford to do anything? There's plenty of aftermarket go fast goodies to build the car of your dreams for the same or less than Ford would charge you. If you want a Boss mustang - get out there and build one!
Klaw, I understand where your coming from, however for those who are in the market for a new Mustang. Why buy a 2010 which has the same 300HP 4.6 3V, when you can buy a 2011, that has the new 400HP 5.0 4V.
Perhaps it's just me, but the 2011 would be well worth the wait IMO
I agree with you but I don't get why people will wait 2, 3, 4 years for the next great thing and then are disappointed when it isn't built or doesn't turn up with the features they're looking for
There's enough parts and pieces for any Mustang lover to build whatever they want now and not have to wait and hope that some faceless, nameless, mid-level manager in Ford gets his way with a new engine design. If someone wants a badass mustang they only need to get started putting one together. I get the impression for some people life is more about bitching about what someone else isn't doing instead of getting out there and actually doing something themselves.
I work for ford at the Kansas city assembly plant and can tell you that they tell us nothing!!! We don't know anything about new models until they run the test models down the assembly line a few months before they are in full production...But not unlike the forums there are always rumors floating around the plant about EVERYTHING! I'm guessing with the market the way it is that Ford is conserving money and probably won't make any expensive changes to the product lineups especially for a small niche car like a boss mustang...If the plans were already in the works then maybe but Ford doesn't know what they are going to do next month let alone over a year from now...
the only thing is. if someone wants to buy something thats fast out of the factory. they look at the mustang and see only 315 or whatever the 2010 is rated at, and then see the SS camaro at like 420 or whatever it is. ford has always been low on the horsepower number out of the factory. if you want something with that kind of power you gotta go into gt500 territory for new car.
if the 5.0 is going to be 400 horses, and then able to order it with a whipple, i think ford should be looking great for 2011.
not alot of people are happy about modifying a brand new car. i don't have a problem with it, depending on the situation, but some people are completely against it because of warrenties and etc.
