Question When is the next big Ford car show?

Like SEMA and stuff like that? I need some new 2011 news on the stang the wait is killing me. I was going to begin shopping for an 07-09 stang but I'm going to wait to see what the 11 offers until then. Driving around in this Chevrolet Impala in the meantime is pretty brutal...

Well, how big is big? There are several all Ford shows that I know of, but none are bigger than the Fabulous Fords Forever show in April (Buena Park, CA). It takes up the entire parking lot at Knotts Berry Farm (1800-2000 cars).

Sell the Impala and get a Mustang! There are some really great deals on 08-09 GT models.

there was mustang week in myrtle beach just last week... it brings a few thousand cars every year. not sure if any news about the 2011 was released though... but yes, get rid of the impala and get a stang.

Whats the point in getting an 09 if the 11 comes out with a 6 speed 5.0L 302?

Exactly! The new 5.0L engine has not been slotted for a Mustang. The last I heard- it was going to go into the new F-150.

Why buy a 2009 over a 2011? 1) it looks better, 2) it's several thousand dollars less, 3) you can use the money you save for mods or fuel, and 4) there's already a huge aftermarket for parts.

I suppose if you prefer having canards, a big ***, and a steep price tag- then the 2010-2011 Mustang is for you.

Honestly, as long as you get a Mustang, you're already a step in the right direction.
