Ford planners are reportedly looking at three possible directions for the 2014 Mustang. The first -- and perhaps the easiest -- is an evolution of the current car, with styling cues that would appeal to the traditionalist, and a continued focus on the 5.0-liter V-8 as the halo engine. The second is more of an M3-style car, probably with turbocharged V-6 power for markets like Europe. The third - and probably the least likely, says our source - is to transform the Mustang into an ultra-high tech, ultra-high performance coupe along the lines of Nissan's giant-killing GT-R.

why would ford screw americans.. if they make it an ultra-high performance coupe like GT-R then how are we middle class americans going to afford it.
So I really dont see that one. They have the GT500 for that one.

the car sells good.. redesign it a lil. re-do the rear end. then I say turbocharge the 5.0 V8 (lower compression of course) for say 500HP and then just bump gt500 to 650HP

geez i should just work for the car companies.. if I worked for GM i would of sure as hell made sure the Camaro didnt weigh more then 3500lbs..
