Default V6 2010

Saw one on my way to school today. I have to agree, the pictures don't do the 2010 justice. They look much better seeing it in person. I got to see the sequentials in action as well, very bright and nicely lit.

I saw a vert V6 last week on my drive home, it looked great from the side and front but the rearend looks even worse on the V6 than it does on the GT... If only Ford would have made a better rearend on that car, then I'd consider trading mine in!

I've seen about 5-6 v6's in the past 2-3 weeks around here. Sorry, no pics. I see more 2010's than i see s197s......weird. I saw a silver one with an older couple in it. Ive also seen a red being driven by a young guy. I've seen about 2 cona blue ones....but they could have been the same car. Nice lookin' cars....

i have one right now as a rental while I am on business in California. I wanted to compare the feel to my current '05 GT. I really like the interior alot on the 2010 model. The V6 handles damn good and the car is very quiet on the highway. Only thing I noticed is just like with my '05 GT...it isn't fond of bumpy roads...

Love the interior, the Shaker system and the SYNC is nice

There are a lot of V6 Mustangs around because that is what rental car companies get. I have driven a bunch of them because I valet at a hotel in Orange County, California. They handle so much better than the outgoing V6. They are decently close to the outgoing GT as far as cornering feel. I want a 2011 GT, though. They should be giving the V6 a new motor, too. Probably the 3.5, or the 3.7 putting out 275hp or so (thats what they usually put out in other models anyway).
