Ford To Bring Mustang SVO Badge Back For 2010 With 300 HP Eco-Boosted Four-Cylinder

We've now heard from a second source that Ford is readying a return to the 2010 Ford Mustang of a badge familiar to malaise-era muscle car fan-boys — the Mustang SVO. Just like the original limited edition mid-eighties Mustang was all about merging power performance with fuel efficiency — we're hearing similar rumblings on this new 'stang. We'd already heard Ford's plans for the Boss engine lineup and we already understood the new Mustang would be less V8-focused than the current Mustang's muscular lineup. We'd also heard the pony car would be receiving Ford's new silver bullet, a twin-turbocharged engine equipped with their new EcoBoost technology. What we hadn't heard was what the boys over at Garage419 today claim — that it'll be a four-banger capable of hitting 300 HP and this newly-badged 'stang will be lighter than the GT by 500 lbs. Holy game-changer, Batman!

We're told G419's source is pretty good, and since we'd heard something about Ford's strategy when it comes to these new engines over drinks a couple weeks back, we're inclined to believe it. Mostly because we think we know who their source is — and since if he's who we think he is, he knows something about the high-performance side of Ford. One thing we're hoping is that this won't nix our desires to see the EcoBoost V6 under the hood. Because if there's one thing we like more than more power, it's not having to pay an arm and a leg at the gas pump for it.

This could actually be a double edged sword for Ford. Upsetting the V8 lovers, yet catching the attention of import tuners. I'm welcome to see what they can do.

Also, I think if they have the balls to actually go through with this. (more likely that they have no choice because of mpg rules) they should bring us the Euro Focus & Modena while their at it. Those cars will certainly help their image here in US.

I need to see this when it actually comes out.At todays gas prices,I wonder if it runs on e85 when it comes out?

[Z28 Autobot]

the way the oil companies manipulated the prices of corn..E85 is not a vaible alternative anymore. its jacked the price up so it can not compete..

[barricade505]

I didnt know that,i figured by 2010 they would have figured out a way to produce this fuel cheaply.Oh well there is always donkey out back...if we cant have a mustang :deadhorse1:

[Z28 Autobot]

ohh they did..and the problem is the oil companies knew this..so they bought stock and commodities into the production of it and jumped the price up..kinda like they did with gas

[barricade505]

those clever shits.

[Z28 Autobot]

ohh when they found out that E85 would cost 60 cents a gallon..they knew it would be a market changing commodity. And I shouldnt just say the oil companies. I should say the ones that dictate the price of oil..those clever shits..
