How much would you pay for the next Super Mustang?
This has me thinking. The rumour mill for the next Halo Mustang is probably worse than the mid engine corvette right now. I have a couple theories:
1) Ford with their new CEO (who is really an advocate for following the mobility future, NOT performance) will probably castrate R&D for the Ford Performance department.
2) Based on one, Ford will sort of push the next batch of Mustangs to compete with the front engine corvette as a legacy sort of thing.
Now back to rumours.
There was ramblings of an AWD variant but it's been sort of pushed aside. Now what is being pushed along is this:
Mach 1: This could be a NA 5.2-5.4L with 480-515 hp. This could also be a 755hp 5.2 SC package.
GT500/Cobra: Base Gt500 could be a 5.2 SC or a 5L twin turbo. Some people theorize a KR package will show up (think GT350R) with 800+ hp and carbon fibre galore.
Now my favourite and the reason for this thread:
BOSS429 50th Aniversary: FORDs new global 7L V8. It exists and is going in the next HD pickups. This car would be something incredibly special. The last of the last. GM had no issues stating a big cube engine with the HP needed to compete couldn't meet emissions and mpg. FORD might just do this as a legacy thing. It's no secret the next 2021 mustang is going hybrid. This car would have carbon galore,
and likely built to exceed on any track.
So price? That's the poll. What is a "muscle car" worth?
Keep in mind FORD likes raping Canadians in pricing. GT350R 68k USD and 91k CDN.
ZL1 62k USD 70K CDN.
