Looks legit. Can anyone confirm it?

"The new Mustang GT continues Fords powertrain offensive with an all-new 5.0-liter V-8, which uses advanced technology to deliver 412 horsepower and projected unsurpassed highway mileage of 25 mpg"


Good for Ford if they start putting some balls under the hood.

It is actually a direct copy from Ford YouTube account.

As far as balls under the hood, I'd say the Mustang has some..

The engine bay looks very clean, I like it. Ford did well. Can't wait to see how it does.

Find them...your dollars...and I'll grant you that statement. Not to mention the car was designed and built well before they were assisted.

I like what they're doing with the "new" Mustang. It's about darn time they give it some proper power.
Don't care for the looks, inside or out, but the overall package is very nice!

Has there been any word on MSRP for the '11MY, or haven't they released that, yet?

Spoke to the dealer last week, msrp will still be in the 28k 29k range for a base gt.

I like both the inside and out of the mustang, but you have to agree the inside of the mustang is VERY nice.. I don't know how you couldn't like it!

Very knowledgeable friend says expect around a 1k increase, but that's it.

I sat in it...played with it. Heck, I even test-drove it...I don't like it. I DO like it over the '09 interior, and I think it's an enormous upgrade -- but I find it plain and unexciting. Specifically the gauges, and the center HVAC/radio stack. I find many people fawning over the soft-touch faux-leather dash material...I don't understand why.

Don't get me wrong, it's not "bad" by any stretch of the imagination...but I can honestly, and non-fanboyishly say I prefer the Camaro's interior over that of the Mustang.

Huh. I didn't expect it to go up very much...but with the new engines, I do expect a decent bump like you said, ~$1000. Otherwise, I don't understand how Ford can maintain a profit.

Mustang's interior is, as is the rest of the car, a bit of a scramble to keep up with Camaro IMO. And GM is returning the bailout money, haven't you heard? I have love for all musclecars, but let's call it what it is. A game of catch-up

As a long long time gear head, ya gotta love the power.But, it is not even close to our fantastic styling. coodos to the power. We will have to see how they match up to our 2SS/RS package.
