Current V6 mustang owners and Mustang GT owners get to see for the first time just how much Ford has been holding back on them, if I bought a 200 HP V6 for 22K and then went back to the dealer that next week to find 315 HP V6's on the lot for around the same price as an example, I'd be pretty ticked off.

This is why ford people should be in love with the Camaro, it did what no other car could make ford do, make them change the mustang....Rapidly too I might add....

I totally get what you are saying about GM rattling Ford's cage and waking them up. They bought the bite back in every dog that has its paws in the auto industry. But, I am not comparing base models here bub. I am comparing the best mustang v6 to my top model 2LT/RS/Auto(v6) incase you didn't catch that, lol jk. I wouldn't buy a base model of anything I would buy the best model of the most uncompromising engine. Catch my drift on the assumption of 35k! On top of all that Ford is worse about 'market value adjustments '. I went to a ford dealership after ordering my Camaro just to see what they had to offer and 2.5k markup is the first thing that came out of the dealers mouth. His face changed shapes after I told him I was buying a Camaro and had just ordered. He didn't even believe what I was getting for the price I was getting it for.
