If Ford Drops the V6 ...

Your probably right there wouldn't be much issues selling them but I think they would lose customers if that's the only choice that there leaving people.

During the entire Fox body run it was either NA 4cyl or the 5.0 (except for the 4cyl SVO that was available for a couple of years).

Yeah your talking 22+ years ago though times are different now. There's a fair market of mustang people that don't like 4 cylinders and if they can't afford the v8 and there only other option is a 4cyl they may go elsewhere is all I'm saying. I like all versions of the mustang.

I don't think things have changed much. The majority of non GT shoppers are only worried about colors, gagets, gas mileage and price. A women I work with has a 14 and doesn't even know what engine the car has.

Times are different.
There's also a market for people wanting more economy from their sports cars these days. Whoever "leaves "because they don't like the idea of a four cylinder mustang, just as many people will consider the four-cylinder because of it's potential fuel efficiency combined with good power. For example a bunch of owners that never would've even considered a Mustang at all

I am one of those that wouldn't have considered the Mustang if it weren't for the turbo 4.

I have driven turbo 4 cars continiously since 1985 for my daily drivers. All of them have been tuned and the Mustang is too.

I also have a v8 muscle car in the garage, a 68 Barracuda, for when I need to make some noise.

Jamo just buy a damn car already

Oops. I ordered a 'stang. Yes, that's right. I did. I got it, 'just so.'

Just now, about an hour ago. From Bull Valley Ford in Woodstock (where they shot "Groundhog's Day).

I have to say, this comment by Joe partly got me to make a decision.

$300 below invoice and I keep the rebate.

:ford:

I thought you'd never ask:

V6, DIB, 051A, 3.55, Spoiler Delete.

I could be talked into the Ingot Silver or RR. But let's face it, DIB is bitch'n.

Please see thread. "Why the V6 is the best choice."
