It's not that American companies can't dream of it, it's that they typically are cheap, which resorts to americans buying foreign cars. Chevy learned this the hard way, which is why they no longer are trying to offer "lackluster cars" as they put it, and are actually making cars, with appropriate power to put down their foreign counterparts.
If they dropped the modular 5.0 "cammer" motor they offer through their Ford Racing division, they would destroy all the competition. Why they don't is beyond me! They could easily offer a next level GT (maybe a Mach 1, or Boss again) with that engine for $5k over what a standard GT is. I guarantee they would sell like hotcakes! Resale value would be consistent as well!

1st bold: show me an American made V* that gets OVER 100hp per liter that is NOT FI.
2nd bold: you obviously dont get the fact that Ford doesnt produce motors with high HP for a reason PRICE.. if they did that the car would be in a price range well out of its public appeal. I will never pay more than 35k for a mustang.. anything more and im getting a damn BMW or something..at least it will handle worth a damn and be quick.
