99% of people attending car shows could care less what engine is in the car, nor can they TELL what engine is in the car. They go to SEE the CARS, not the engines. And I've seen a number of both stock and customized Fox 4's at shows, as well as a huge number of late-model 3.8 and 4.0 V-6's. One of the sharpest cars I've seen at a Mustang show was a customized '93 Fox convertible with the base 2.3. It got more attention than the Shelby GT500's (which all look boringly just alike).

Normally I'd agree with you on this one, but 305 HP, 0-60 in 5.4 seconds, .95g on the skidpad and over 30 mpg?? I'd definitely look at a V-6 Mustang now!! You might even be seeing more of them at shows, now that they are real performers instead of a nice looking slow car. Put a super charger on that new V-6, and you'll be pushing 400 hp. Sweet!
