RE: bringin back the 5.0
It surely looks Ford's response towards the Chrysler 300. You can't tell much by the picture but looks alright. Regarding the engine..I don't remember that Ford still using 5.0 displacement engines...wonder if this is a new engine or based the old fox body one.

I don't know what spec engine is in the new Interceptor concept, but I do know that a new 5 liter modular motor is supposed to go into production sometime in the next 2 years. Whether it will be SOHC or DOHC has yet to be announced........but I'm hoping it's a 4V.

I believe they are using the ford racing 5.0 cammer engine they use in the boy racer track cars and the same engine you can buy but it is like $14,999. I doubt they would go back to pushrod technology, but hey I could be wrong....

RE: bringin back the 5.0
I hate that dodge, ford and chrysler are using the same chasis and the charger, 300m and the interceptor look alike..
i bet this interceptor will be based on the same chasis and 3.5L engine and (5.0L engine - optional) just like the other two cars
