Considering the price, placement (at the top of the Ford lineup), and competition, the obvious choice was a V8 with some boost - like the previous generation.
Even though the turbo V6 they are putting in has a good amount of power, it is still a 6, Ferrari puts 8s and 12s in their cars, Lambo 10s and 12s, Audi 8s, Benz 8s, BMW 8s...
Obviously development on a short run car like this is high, but adding another $25K to have the flat plane V8 with a pair of turbos is not going to shun buyers.
