No More V8 MUSTANGS In the future
Thats what latest motor trend says, that cars starting from 2012 have to do a certain number of miles per gallon to be legal. Ford is thinking of making the mustang a 3.7 v6 Turbo in order to meet the standards. But they say it will make more HP than the v8s. But still IMO mustang are suppose to have V8's. Mucle Cars are going to die out. Im keeping me a V8 mustang im not getting a v6 turbo muscle car. What do you guys think?

Don't worry ford will not get rid of the v8. I read this same thing about the turbo motor but i also read that, that will only be a option motor or that turbo motor will be stock n the v8 will be optional. So don't worry!
