The 2015's are going to be direct injected so it will be a challenge to get anything more out of them then what the leave the factory with. I think that alot of people are forgetting this...

The days of bolting on a supercharger may be over as upgrading direct injection is near impossible at this point and very expensive.
Tell this to the Powerstroke guys...:lol1: I remember when this same fear surfaced with the move from carbs to EFI, and again at the move from pushrods to OHC. Besides, how do we know all of the 2015 engines will be DI?

I just ran across an interesting page in the new Road and Track on page 62, just a one page recap of a past story but they seem to think the GT350 will have a 5.4 winding up to 7,000 RPM's and pushing about 600. That estemate doesn't seem to crazy to me but I guess we shall see. I myself have always hated the new design at first but after a while I always seem to find the old school muscle car charictiristics that Ford tries to hide in the updated Aerodynamics of the new standards. For Ford to meet the crazy upcoming fuel economy requirements they will have to get aerodynamics to aid along with the more efficient engines, I have faith in them but either way I have plenty of Mustangs to keep me happy if they don't.
I talked to the people at Tasca ford. They are one of the licensed super snake shops. They do a lot of custom tuning and performance and have a lot of connections at Ford. And their head mechanic told me the new body style will not allow for anything larger than the 5.0 and there's no room for any supercharger. Also so that the direct injection is going to limit modifications...
I still think it will be lacking in looks the first few years, then they will tweak it to perfection.

Let's hope they are wrong! I would think an SC would be limited the the cowl size on the hood rather then the engine compartment, either way I have faith in Ford until something changes my mind!
I would've like to see them do one more retro style with the 69 mach one Where the new style based off the 69 Mach one I personally don't like the fusion or the European-style.
I'm sure the Ford engineers could've found a way to keep the car fuel-efficient but kept the American looks
I think I can dig up similar threads from across the Internet from some point in 2004...
We all know how that turned out.
I prefer the exterior looks of my 04 Cobra over my S197 Shelby. Love them both.
Expect I will like the 15 as well.
Like it or not things are going to change.I remember in 04 when they first announced the retro style 05, and everybody lost their minds, "Why is ford going backwards instead of more modern", and now the opposite. All I can think is
