FYI:
2014: 540hp Ecoboost 5.0 SE
440hp BOSS motor for base GT
360hp EcoBoost 3.7 V6
290hp Ecoboost 2.0 4cyl (SVO)
Lincoln will get a coupe built on the same platform for long term cost saving (GM will build the Camaro and CTS on the same platform/Dodge builds the 300/Charger/Challenger on the same tweaked chassis)Materials will become more upscale
in the use of alcantara/cloth/leather. Brembos/Recaros become standard GT items. In the
mean time look for leather Recaros on the GT500 and 2013 brings BOSS 302 with 1970 style stripe
and one heritage color (Supposedly Grabber Green but could by Lime).

If this stuff's for real, then the future can't come soon enough.
BTW, is that calendar year 2014 or MY 2014?

Not a big deal about the 440hp BOSS engine in the Base GT. I hope there is more to it than just that. Does not take much to make this engine 440 flywheel with basic mods.

For love of all that is holy......please don't ever say "hugger orange" and mustang in the same sentence. It's a chevy color.
I have to hear that crap from a co-worker every day when I drive my 96 Tangerine GT.

Honestly, is this how spoiled people are getting with the recent Mustang powerplants? 
Do people realize how much horsepower that is: 540?! If I were a Ford person reading quotes like this, it would make me wonder what I'd have to do to satisfy people. By 2020 people are going to be complaining that the top of the line Mustang won't have 750HP, the GT won't have 600HP and the "lowly" base model won't have 425HP. This is getting a little ridiculous in what people expect in terms of power in their cars. Remember folks, as awesome as the Mustang is, it's not a supercar.

True.....but the current GT500 pumps out 550bhp and if the blown Coyote is to replace that car, it'd be a blow to the bragging rights (and that's pretty much all they are) if it wasn't to top that
