Missed what I feel like I just read the same thing elsewhere.
At any rate, in the interest of the topic, I have a 99 V6 and sure, you can slap a SC on it and run with stock 99-04 GTs, but in the end, the V8 will still get you in most everything. Their are a lot of high power sixxers out there, Super Six Motorsports has built a lot of them, but for the money, work and time you put into it, its not worth it.

5.0's. Amazing to get 5.0 around 26k nicely equipped. What a deal. I know when I bought my 11 back in October 2010 Ford was giving a 1000 dollar rebate. A base 5.0 was like 29 to 30k and change depending if it was auto.

At the current 2012 5.0 prices it really doesn't make sense to buy the v6 and install a supercharger. Wow, Ford is giving some awesome deals with a 3,000 dollar rebate on the

Like I said a long time back...If a V6 is all you can afford at the time and want to add a supercharger later, then go for it. But it never makes sense to buy a new V6 and supercharge it. V6 + SC = V8 price

I know the AM was/is doing a build on the new V6. This is great for marketing the products they sell and show what the engine can do. Personally I would go for the V8, and did.

Like I said a long time back...If a V6 is all you can afford at the time and want to add a supercharger later, then go for it. But it never makes sense to buy a new V6 and supercharge it. V6 + SC = V8 priceAccording to Edmunds ford is currently offering a 1,000 rebate on the 2012 v6 models. Not 3000 like the 5.0's. According to Edmunds a base v6 and upgrade to 3.31 gears one can get for around 22k. One can get a 2012 5.0 for 26k with the 3,000 rebate. 6 k for the super charger with the v6= 28k.
Doing the math the 5.0 is two grand less. Take that two grand and do some nice mods on the 5.0. Of course with the super charger on the v6 you will have around 475 hp compared to 412 hp.
Based upon the current pricing of a 2012 5.0 I say that's a great deal for the 5.0.
