Some of my best posts are vanishing tonight. You can tell it happened because a bug in the forum software causes the "Page" number to increment when posts are added but it does not go back down when they vanish mysteriously. You ened up with a page you can't get to until enough posts are added to increment the page counter again.

Interesting that Ford is apparently telling people now that Europe will be a getting a 4-cylinder Mustang but the U.S. won't.
Not sure if anything is really set in stone at this point, but if the next Mustang continues with a base 300+ hp V6, GM might be tempted to follow suit. Or not. Never thought they'd be building 4-banger Impalas. |

Now, Road & Track is saying that the new Mustang will indeed get a 4-cylinder turbo in the U.S., but it will be positioned as an *upgrade* to the V6, so who the hell knows...
http://www.roadandtrack.com/future-c...d=1459_7246696 In the U.S., the Mustang is the Camaro's major competitor, so the powertrain options in each vehicle obviously influence each other. I suspect that GM's current love affair with 4-bangers will indeed extend to the next Camaro... but I do agree with those here don't see a lot of demand for a 4-cylinder Camaro. Camaro buyers seem pretty happy with V6/V8 options, so why mess with success? On the other hand, I look at what they've done with the new Impala... replacing the base V6 with the sluggish 2.5 four... and jacking up the price. Of course, maybe that's not a good comparison, as perhaps GM thinks Impala buyers are unconcerned with performance. |

I think Chevy could blow Ford and Mustang out of the water if more perfomance type v-8s and 6's were offered, instead of going to 4's, because, well, that's what Ford is gonna do... |
