Sure, when you’re talking about a GT500, Bullitt, or w/e high end or FI version they roll out. Buyers of those models are in it for the “muscle”…
I’m willing wager a few bucks that the majority of the New GT (or w/e the standard V8 model is called) are not muscle car enthusiast primarily. People that weigh MPG with the same levity as 1/4 mile times.
