Well the engine is not a bored over 4.6, its a destroked 5.4. There is also no way they are going to keep it under the price of a Camaro unless you buy the base model with no upgrades. The price difference between the two equally optioned is only $1500 now. I dont think with the new enigne and transmisson you are going to keep the price you are looking for. With the upgrades in drivetrain you are looking at added weight. They gained weight just with a few changes in body panels from last year to this one. The further upgrades, drivetrain and upgraded safety are going to add weight too. I say around 3700lbs for the new Mustang. Once again tho this is all just internet speculation until the numbers are actually done and in print.
