Disheartening? You are talking about a 9 year difference in technology. Don't bug me that much.
Yeah no kidding. The ones who are hating it right now are the 3v owners and in particular the 2010 cars if bought new when they came out.

9 year difference doesn't matter ur comparing a blown car to NA

9 years in technology does matter. Engines keep getting better and better N/A or not. The best production engine Ford had at the time was from the Cobra R which the 5.0 is putting similar numbers despite having a smaller displacement. Why? Technology improvement.

Amazing how far Ford has come in performance..........a new base GT will keep up with a top of the line Cobra from 8 years ago.

Its been that way since NE Cobra's. 99/01 Cobra's were neck to neck with the 05 Gt's. Those NE Cobra's were also top of the line Cobras too you know :-D
