Just ran across this today and wanted to know what the mitsu nation thought. Will this deff bring more competition for our ralliart's

I heard about this not too long ago. I'm kinda confused as to why the Mustang has less horsepower compared to the Taurus.

 

^ +1 im still asking myself the same question and as to why the price is so high.

 

Maybe to compete with the BMW 335xi, Audi A6 and other such vehicles in the same class.

 

Looks nice! I'll have to get one when i hit my mid to late 40s!

 

The only thing u might have to worry about is a strait line, will never catch the lancer in the corners

heck for 37k, u can do a lot with a lancer

 

The next Mustang will either have an option for the 5.0 Coyote or the Ecoboost Turbo motor. I am not so sure about the Mustang not hanging with the Lancer in the corners either.

 

wow that thing looks pretty sweet... but for 37k+ i'd much rather have an evo. like ^^^^ this isn't in our price range to be considered competition

 

erg...ford...no thanks.

 

Totally different class of car. They are not in competition.

The SHO is after the BMW, Audi, Jag crowd.

In Aussieland, they have the Falcon with that motor. Ford will never produce the Mustang V6TT since the American public wants the V8...personally, I'd take the V6TT in a heartbeat.

 

i watched a review on this somewhere... for the power it has, its damn slow.

 

Oh don't get me wrong I would never leave the mitsu nation I was just wondering if everyone thought it would be as fast as the numbers show.

 

Closed - continue this conversation in the link I provided.

 

Just a note, you all are high if you think this car is competition for the Ralliart. A car like the new SHO is aimed directly at the BMW 5 series, Mercedes E-class, and other full-size luxury V8 cars in the $45k-$55k range.
