WHAT WILL FORD DO???

Having said that, I think this car would still be worth every penny if it did start at 33-35K. Alot of bang for that buck.

You are getting too worried, Ford will dominate it's part of the market like it always does. As it was said before, the camaro has always been a better performing car, yet the mustang vastly outsold it. Also, I would never get a challenger because they are so heavy that they don't even perform that well. Now if Ford could lighten the current mustang to 3000 pounds, we wouldn't need 400hp. Power to weight > peak power.

3,000 pounds would be less than a 2 seater fiber glass Corvette. That's not going to happen. It's already lighter than the Camaro and Challenger. All they need to do is up the power to 375 and they'll have the power to weight ratio. Frankly, I'm hoping for 350 hp, but it'll probably be less. Hope I'm wrong.

Being realistic the Camaro will not sell for under MSRP. Second Ford has already said they will be changing the current motor to a 5.0L 3v motor. That can easily get them to 350hp. GM has already said the Camaro is going to be 4200-4300lbs. Thats a huge difference from what the mustang weighs. Either way the mustang will always out sell the Camaro due to its iconic image. It just has a better following. I will probably end up getting a Camaro once the prices stabilize unless Ford can deliver something really impressive with their 50 year anniversary car.
