Hey guys!
I am a proud owner of a new, Kona Blue, 2010 Mustang GT Premium and I am loving every mile of it!
I have wanted a mustang since I was 13 and just now have been able to get myself into a posistion (at 30) where I can own one. I always told myself if I ever get one its gotta be a GT. SO I am happy all around.
Since buying this car I have started reading forums like these about the car. One thing I am curious about is what I hear about the 2011 having the 5.0 in it. This is a little bit of a kill joy but its not the reason I bought the car.
What does peev me a bit is that I am reading that the v6's will have 315 hp? I have waited almost 20 years to buy one and I have to find out on a forum that a v6 will be able to beat my GT?
I called a dealer and asked him about the new changes, he said he hasn't heard anything has changed in the '11's and he usually hears about then 8 months or more before they get the cars.
either way, I still love teh car and can see myself enjoy it for many years to come!

The current 4.6L V8 has so many mods available that it will take the 5.0L at least 2 years to get even close. All the power mods like the blowers will have to be approved byemission legislation. CARB in Cali usually takes its sweet time to do anything. So, have fun with your new Mustang, and then a couple of years from now you can decide if to upgrade to a 5.0 or switch to the new-gen V6.
