Just wondering....actually a buddy of mine has an 06 GT he still owe's 18k on and he's ticked to find out the 2011 V6 has 10hp shy of his 06 GT. But in all fairness he had the car for several years. But for the 2010 owners I really have to ask what were you thinking????

Sorry to hear your friend owes so much on a 5 year old car, it does not say much for your friends I guess. Bwah ha!

I would be ticked off if cars weren't improving and technology stayed the same. I waited for the 2010 to be revealed before buying my 09 because I didn't like the new body style. I'm perfectly happy bolting on a supercharger and making more horsepower than them, especially up here at high altitude where N/A cars are at a disadvantage

Everytime they upgrade the car the folks with the older cars can't feel cheated or "kicked in the pants" or else the car would never evolve. I am just happy to see Ford took on GM & Dodge for a more potent contender.
