Don't miss quote me I said lower , meaner , and the new challenger is heavier , obese , fat what ever you want to call it lol...when I trade in my Stang for a new 5.0 I will give you a run for your money and guess what it will cost me WAY less than your srt8 which is overpriced indeed. I don't use IMO sorry

I could take a fat dump on that rear end and it might look better.

This is not a redesign, it is a minor refresh. Don't expect a new motor until they get a better chassis/suspension to put it on. I'm not even sure this car will get a more advanced power/drivetrain because top of the line (in other words expensive) performance has never been the Mustang's M.O. Have you all considered that Ford might just decide to leave the GT500 to really "compete" with the Camaro SS and Challenger SRT-8?

In my opinion, because the Mustang is a cheap for the masses car, this engine will get a minor power boost so that their loyal fans will think Ford is competing. This will buy the company enough time to come out with a real powerplant. Even then though, if something near 400hp is an option, it won't be on the base Mustang GT. They will keep the slightly upped 4.6L on the base for cheap speed, then have an optional engine/suspension upgrade that will push the price out of normal Mustang buyer range. That won't be until a total redesign, of course.

This is all assuming of course that they can get it out while the market for these cars is still healthy. I don't think that will be open past 2012.

And remember the 2010 Mustang will be MUCH LIGHTER THAN THE COMPETITION due to using the same platform as the 05 , over 600 POUNDS less than the FAT CHALLY and over 400 POUNDS less than the MARO hence it doesn't need 400 HP to win 350 HP will be enough to kick ass

Were you just telling us not to assume?

Same platform, new safety regulations. More weight dude, I promise that. It won't be the 3400lbs you seem to be imagining.
