Yeah, I'm clear on that.

But then, I hardly consider a tune "modded". It takes very little to get extra power out of the new SHOs, and they are a pretty good match for the 05-10 GTs, as evidenced by it's showing against the 2011.

I think it's just another stepping stone for the Mustang. The '11 Mustang V-6 outperformed the V-6 gensis in every segment and it is rated the same horsepower. Besides horsepower isn't everything, I believe balance is more important in which Ford has alot more experience in than korea does.

Either way this can only be a good thing for US. As long as companies keep pushing Ford for better product we keep getting better cars.

so in case it hasn't be said:
would the four door genesis go after BMW's and Mercedes?
it certainly seems better suited to do that
powerful small block v8+four doors=stereotypical mid grade bmw or Mercedes no?

This news can only spell 1 thing: A Toyota FT-HS Hybrid Sports Coupe of some sort. hmmmm ladies and gentlemen im thinking the Supra (new name maybe?) is gonna make a come back or be reinvented. After a long 10+ year break if indeed Hyundai is able to deliver like they say they are. It only seems logical that Toyota too would try and complete. Especially since what Ford, Dodge, Chevy has in terms of Muscle Cars and since all four of them are manufactors in the CUP SERIES.
