Wet clutch had more torque capacity. The dry clutch was fine with lower power engines. The 2.0L exceeded the design limit and the engineers knew it and raised the issue but mgt told them to STFU and do it anyway.
Or heck, the 5.0 hybrid and just tune the exhaust to be a bit less muscle car, and more Aston Martin or Lexus LC 500.
I agree Ford should be focusing on investing more in flat rock. They can do a lot worse than a highly profitable halo coupe.
