I actually kinda agree. I drove both before making a difficult final decision, and good as the 5.0 is, I found the LS3 to have an even better torque curve. (I ended up going the Ford route for other reasons).

It was actually a hard choice for me between a camaro and the 5.0 and I won't lie it was very close. I almost ended up in a mustang. I will probably get banned from camaro5 soon for saying that.
I still think the mustang offers a great value for your money.

They should have done it right out of the box in 2011. All the engineering work was done. There is even a little nub on the bottom of the head that is clearly the spot the direct injector will go once its there. They just decided to save the money for now and not include it. I'd rather they spent money on that than on Sync.

Direct injected I think the motor will be very potent. I could see it pushing over 450hp easily. I can't wait to see what the next generation coyote brings along with the Gen V v8. It's impressive they were able to squeeze that much power out of the 5.0 without having to use direct injection.

Admittedly, I'd never be able to get 30 in Chicago where you are given all the congestion and the lousy excuse for fuel that the EPA passes off as gasoline and forces on drivers there. The fuel I burn is pure, 100% gasoline (well, almost).

Ya....the gasoline around here is crap. The few times I managed to actually put gasoline is one of my vehicles and not an ethanol mix I was able to see impressive mpg increases. Ethanol is crap. Chicago stop lights are also poorly timed.
