Just because there's a Mustang running around with factory plates and dual exhaust doesn't mean the 3.5 is going to make it into the Mustang in '07. The factories do lots of engine/drivetrain testing in all kinds of different cars & trucks, for all kinds of different reasons.

Hey, I can't tell from your picture about the mods. But can tell from the pic that it is sonic blue met. MY car color. They don't make that same color anymore. It is now Vista blue met. alot darker. This might not mean much but is something I noticed from the pic. Maybe a 05. I have drove the 06 vista blues there is a very noticable difference. Much much darker.

Buy the car.

There is no way ford is pumping a 250 hp V6 into the 07 stang. 07 V6 competing with a 04 GT? Ford ain't dumb.

Just look at history. The only times Ford has beefed up (or in the 70's tone downed) the power was when they changed the body style, which we know isn't happening unless Ford is trying to go under. The shortest span of time of the same HP ratings was during 94-95 and 96-98, and we all know those were terds. The new mustang is thriving, and I highly doubt Ford will mess with it (besides exterior enhancements) until 2009 at the earliest.

Yea they'll be about 220HP at the wheel. It sucks we'll be eating there dust in are o5 moded stangs while there looking at are head lights in there Stock V6 stangs. Not looking forward to that!! AT ALL

And I though the people that bought the 2004 got screwed!!! (on looks of the body & engine)
Were getting screwed on the engine part ( we still look as good though)

Thats a lot more HP, they can't give it away for the same price ya think?

do not forget that the v6 mustang will have to compete with the new challenger which has the 3.5 HO 250hp Chrysler engine which was in 300m, 300 ect. So they might push back the engine until the challenger comes out to compete. they need to go head to head with the challenger and haveing a less powerful engine would not be good.
