Weight is still a question mark and it still comes in under the LS3 HP

HP wars are on and popping!!!! WooHoo Way To Go Ford!!

*The_Blur* · 12-17-2009, 09:41 PM

This will make my trips to the track much more interesting. Ford made an interesting decision to nearly split the difference between the L99 and the LS3.

I'm not scared. I won't be stock for too long.

The 2011 Mustang GT is going to be one hell of a car.

nester7929 · 12-17-2009, 09:49 PM

With how little it weighs compared to the others, this will be the benchmark for 2011. 2012 and beyond is shaping up to be very interesting.

Very good Ford, you may have just convinced me to buy a third Mustang.

+1 It would be my third also... (1993 4 banger w/ 5 speed to learn to drive, 1992 GT with built 347 stroker)

...Dear lord. I am about to sin.

Reluctantly, if I can get a Z plan price like I did with the base GT I got this past summer (27.5K otd) I may very well pull the trigger.

As I've stated in other posts, wait for the details. Specifically weight and price.
