Looks Like Ford has dropped the ball as far as power goes considering what the camaro and challenger are putting out

Yes I think they should have added more power. We should see a power increase for 2011, hopefully.

Looks great....powers where I thought it would be. Ford wants to sell cars, smarter to release the new model as is and see increase in sales, then when they pitter off release new power train options.

Some of it looks nice..Like the cobra looking front end...The rear fender hip and the new hood.. But the euro tail lights, rice front bumper corner flares and not color matching in between the headlights and grill looks like crap..In fact I think the v6 version looks a lot better..
At the end of the day how many people are going to trade their 05-09 for one of these with the power being the same? Im guessing not many

Looks like ill be keeping the 08 and continue improving it or trade it off for a camaro. I dont know how they will compete with the v8 camaro (ss version with rs package at 34,000).Hopefully ford will suprise us with "oh yhea,optional 420 hp 5.0" Lmao!

looks good....but the power isnt there. The Mustang has become the stepchild of ponycars. With Chevy and Dodge putting out cars with 400+, I am a little disappointed that they couldnt get a little more power out of those 4.6 liters. I mean guys driving 6er Camaros are going to want race V8 Mustangs.....

2011 needs to bring 5.0 Mustangs and 400 Hp, then I'll be happy.
