The Mustang has always been the cheaper of the two cars. To put a new engine in it is going to raise the price of the car. Then to take off weight as is being claimed to happen, and make the power that is also being claimed will raise the price of the car even more. Basically its a cost thing. To keep the price of the car down so they sell more units. They have in the past gave up being the lead in hp for the cheaper of the two cars. Right now if you actually load a Mustang to compare with the Camaro the price difference is about $1500. So for all the advances that are being said to be coming the price will have to go up and to keep competitive with GM they arent going to price themselves out of the market. Just dont see it happening.
