Dont care for it. Hope that is not final product but we are pretty close to cutoff for final make.

Well from the shots Ive seen (of course ALOT can and will change) but I think I made the right move going with my 11 and not waiting. But we will see.

I may get one if I like the way they look, but Ford has got to do a better job of keeping the pricing reasonable. My 08 GT I got for $19500 about a year and a half ago with low miles. My 11 V6 I got for $20,000 at the same time with really low miles. The difference, the 08 GT new was a $28,000 car. The 11 V6 new was a $28,000 car. See the problem here. In just 3 years the price of the cars has gone up exponentially so that the price of a premium V6 is the same as a premium GT, and personally I like the setup of my 08 better.

However since Ford is adding in IRS coupled with a complete redesign I estimate that the entry level V6 will retail for around $25,000, Premiums will be in the 30K range, and base GTs will be 30K and exceeding 40K for decent premium models.

In short this is just too expensive and at that price I'd rather pickup a nice used GT500. It'll be faster, worth more money, and cost much less than a new one.

Ford has really lost there way over the years by making the Mustang less and less affordable for the middle class which is who the car was initially designed for.

I agree with all of this... for a lot fo the target audience, they cant afford 25k+ for whats essentially a seasonal or weekend car.
