So I was reading Road & Track or Car & Driver or something at the dentist office the other day and it said that all auto-manufacturers must begin complying with new laws regarding emmisions and such, and so Ford, as a result, would be required to put a more efficient engine in the GT.
They are going to put an EcoBoost twin-turbo 6 Cyl. in the GT that will have more HP than the current 4.6, I think the target date is 2012 or something. Some Ford people were quoted saying the market won't buy the switch.
So the question is....
Would you care if your GT had only 4 or 6 cyls if it was faster than your neighbors GT with 8 cyls?
Does size really matter?[8D]Why?
Sorry if this topic has been covered here 10 times, I haven't seen it.

omg not this thread AGAIN []the last one went on for pages and pages and pages....basically half the site is going to say that v8s are the best and the only thing they will buy, then the other half will call them dumb rednecks and post pics of porsches to show that a sixxer can be fast etc etc blah blah sixxers suck, gt people are ignorant rednecks, half the site would rock a v6 tt if its faster, the other half only want v8....
Would they really make 3 different engines in 3 years? 2010 4.6 V8, 2011 6.3 (I believe) V8, 2012 V6 TT.
Sounds like too much trouble if you ask me.
The TT V6 is undoubtedly going into production, the question is only whether or not they will put one in the GT.
Someone in the article said all the production muscle cars are going to be a thing of the past, so.... smoke 'em while you got 'em! That's why they will put out the higher output engines now while they can. And I'm sure heavy trucks and such will need to be exempt from the law because sometimes you just need more base displacement and rotational mass, yes? So they will need to keep some big V8s in production.
