It’s pretty clear that base car performance matters very little. The Mustang has historically outsold the Camaro, even with lower performance. Ford knows what is going to sell a car.

on the other hand they are more complacent than chevrolet. remember what HP was for the 2005 mustang gt ? 300. Remember what it was 5 years later when the 2010 Camaro came out ? 300.
The 5.0 Coyote came out in 2011. It takes way more than a year to develop a completely new engine.
