Tangible means something you can touch. By defintion Breasts Augmentation are definately gains you can touch.

Additionally HP isn't always a plus to the experience. There are cars which have more HP than can reasonably be put to use. I have a buddy with 2 2014 gt500's, a zo6, a viper.... he tells me that some of his cars have more HP than can reasonably be put to the ground. He has done many track schools and is not without some skills. I'll stick with More isn't always better.
Sorry. I should have been more clear. The attractiveness of tits isn't tangible. Big, small, its in the eye of the beholder and bigger doesn't always mean better. Its all opinion. All things equal, more power equals more speed and/or faster acceleration. So if going fast is the goal, more power is the way.

If I was infinitely rich I would buy a gt350r and cut a hole in the hood with a giant weiand blower sticking out of it just to drive you people crazy.

Just wait until the voodoo comes in the standard GT in 2018 you'll all feel stupid about treating this gt350 like its so special

Yeah, because when new designs and models are 3 years old they're not new or special any more. Something better always comes along and what was new and special 3 years ago is now pedestrian. What a brilliant observation on your part. Where can I get a crystal ball like yours?

Rational explanations have no merit in these forums. Damn.....everybody knows that.

Yeah, I totally can't wait for the Voodoo to replace the Trinity 5.8L that's presently in all Mustang GTs.

Just like the Roadrunner in the S550? Oh holy balls, that's right...the current gen Coyote is still not a Roadrunner and is still down on power and still doesn't rev to 7500 from the factory.

Not to mention that anyone who sums a car up based on its engine alone is laughably myopic. The GTR would just be another overweight puke if it weren't for its ground breaking AWD system, steering, torque management system, and aerodynamics. But it does have those things and that combined with its great power is what makes it a stand out offering.

The GT350 with its Magneride system, brakes, springs, aero, and chassis tuning are what make the car combined with the engine. Little things like, oh I don't know, carbon fiber wheels on the r? A completely unique and non interchangeable front end to base S550s. A brake system that isn't backwards compatible. At least not yet anyway. And in the end, a VIN is a VIN. And if you don't have a GT350 VIN, it's never going to be one regardless of what engine comes into the next base GT car. To some people, that's special and intrinsically valuable. If logic were to 100% take over in the Mustang GT price range you're most likely better off with a Gen 6 Camaro SS with the Magneride option.

They are holding out until they put out the new gt40 using the vodoo instead of an ecoboost

Say if I was at a car cruise and saw a super clean new GT350 and under the hood stood a blower, I'd be pretty disappointed.
most would say the same about the Boss but a lot ppl have done it. But im going to leave mine N/A

I too doubt that will ever happen.

Even of it does, so what? Technologies never stand still, it is part of the advancement of civilization. What matters is the opportunity of being part of history, and being able to say "I was one of the first to have one!" Imagine being one of the first to have a 64.5 mustang, or an original Boss 302, or fuel injected Corvette, or a Grand National / GNX. They are all totally outdated now but being part of the history when it happened is worth your place in gold.

Voodoo won't make it to the GT unless two things happen:

Better emissions and better economy. Even if they drop the displacement to 5.0L and add DI it's still not going to help Ford achieve a higher CAFE rating.

My money is on he 2.7-3.5L ecoboost technology finding its way to a mid-compression 4.2L v8, crossplane, with DI and reaching an easy 32mpg on the highway.

This seems like a much more likely senario
