Did that writer actually research to see if Ford had launched an all-new 3.5 liter V-6?
Last time I checked, the new Mustang is having its best sales year since 1994. Around 192,000 Mustang will be built by the end of this year. Are great sales somehow a "problem?"
check the link for the new V-6 and 6 speed auto

Is something "wrong" with beating Porsche, BMW, Nissan, etc. on the race track?

A new Shelby GT350 should be built with the weight kept down. The original Shelby GT350s handled better than the GT500s.

Hp/liter has ZERO effect on the performance of a car. Heck, the new Corvette Z06's hand-built 505 hp LS7 weighs 71 pounds less than the new BMW M5's 5.0 liter V-10. The new Z06 gets 26 mpg and it is the only production car sold in America with more than 400 hp that doesn't get a gas guzzler tax (same goes for the C6 Corvette but it has an even 400 hp).
