I thought we were talking about how you think modern V6 pony cars aren't enough power for your manly needs. Guess it's all subjective now...

They're not. You are missing quite a bit of factors with some of these cars. It isn't all as simple as power to weight. Torque, gearing, the powerband of certain motors you're showcasing here.... one dataset does not make the story of a full car. It was pretty well known most of the base gt mustangs were slouches though. The four cam and special versions were the fast ones out of the box. Those are mustangs though.... not sure how we got on to mustangs specifically lol.
For the record, the SVT cobra of 03-04 for comparison.
3665 lbs. 360 hp = 10.18 lbs / hp
