Mustang HP vs Other Vehicles

Before I start the topic I do want to say that I am very pleased with the performance of my 05 V6. And from reading this forum I am sure the GT is awesome. Plus there is no way I would trade my Mustang for anything else.

Okay that said, let me ask - Did it seem like on Sunday's coverage of the International Auto Show that everything that was around 4.0 and 4.6 had more HP than the Mustang? Did Ford mess up by not making the engines just a little more powerful? I think they did. It doesn't seem right to have such a good looking car that reminds everyone of the Muscle Car Days that might can be outran by a soccer mom in a minivan or SUV.

anyway, neat site- has hp/trq curves of them all- I was really suprised at the bottom end torque on the 4.6, as I'd 'thought' it woulda been a lot lower- its really got a nicetorque curve, just aint a bigblock...
