Default RE: Enter the rumormill: Next Mustang iteration to get 007 flavor

Some very good points indeed! Don't forget about their success with the Fusion model.

ORIGINAL: RLSH700

Now this I'm happy to hear IF it offers a different engine than the GTs do. I don't mind the Mustang having more variants, in fact, that is a great idea as long as it is justifiable. Making 4 versions of the same engine output instead of closing the gap between the GT and the GT500 (a 200hp gap mind you) simply does not make sense. Offering the Mach 1 as they did back in 03 to close the gap between the Cobra and the GT was a smart move and it would be a smart move to repeat. Offering 4 versions of the GT and charging inflated prices is simply silly.

I do appreciate that Ford kept this segment alive, I just think that Ford needs something besides the Mustang to survive and needs to pump their R&D into their slower selling models that have great potential, just lack of power or styling depending on the model that prevents them from being successful.
