Definitely looks better then the 2009 body style. It does look like Ford will be putting in new 5.0 V8 four-valve per cylinder setup, in the 2011 Mustang rumored to produce 400hp and 400lbs tq.
Here is the article if anyone is interested: Ford’s 5.0L coyote V8 spied! I will still take my 370z over a 400hp Mustang. Although it will be interesting to see how it will perform and if will retain the same curb weight. If doesn't gain much weight it will be fast, that’s +85hp and +80lbft increase over the 2010 V8 motor. |

Only part that looks appealling is the front end...besides Iv seen a handful of 09's around and they look just like that. The only part that stood out was the fact that the turn signals have an alternating flash in the tail lights. Starts from the inner light and moves to the outter light.(seemed ridiculous)
Honestly none of the new american muscle sticks out on the road. Their curves and lines are boring and flat to me. PLUS if you want a mustang that actually looks beautiful you have to pay over $60k. Theres so many american muscle nut huggers, the mustang will never die. I can think of at least 10 states that Imports would be a rarity and muscle reigns supreme.

But the average age of those fans is going up every year. If the American makers think things are bad now wait about 20 years. If they don't up their game and gain some popularity with my generation or my kid's generation their whole fanbase will die off.

A Mustang with anything less than a 5.0, isn't a mustang. That, and seems like every dyed-hair blond, not-yet-soccor-mom-who's-still-single-in-her-late-20's drives one... They should rename the thing "cougar-concept" |
