So in short, be thankful for the v6 and the people that buy them for the look/feel of having a mustang. Without them your need to mod a v8 wouldn't be at all possible.
Nice, great point!

Although cobra owners may look down on us gt owners but still a gt will get up and go faster then the average moms station wagon. I once owned a V6 that my dad bought as a project for me and hated it. I felt like I was driving a geo
I love my geo.

Some people just want a mustang for the looks and what the better gas mileage, not even one is a performance guru. Look at all the girls rolling around in the v6, they prob don't even know the difference between a v6 or a v8 nor care, a mustang is a mustang to the average person.
