That's not a 1969 Mustang even though it's trying really hard to look like one.

Who said anything about forgetting?
The point being that turboed 4s can now double the hp of old school V8s and the Mustang and Camaro are both gradually changing from big heavy beasts that needed V8s to simply move to lighter more nimble machines that can get along perfectly on a turboed 4. Not everybody needs to get a massive 8 just because "muscle car".
