the new v6 is going to put out as much power as the outgoing gt 4.6 motor. and its twin turbo from what i hear.

hmmm seems like you are right. i read it somewhere a while back. maybe it was speculation that the new v6 was going to be the same one from the taurus sho.

With those V6 numbers, do you even need a V8?

I said it in another thread about this..

I would be PISSED if I just bought a '10 Mustang.

And I am with you guys on the V6 thing. Just like the Camaro, the V6 is the one to buy. Cheaper, better MPG, Still really fast, ect. But I just dont think I could do it. I couldnt own the V6 when the V8 is available.

yeah 2010 owners got the shaft on that one. my local dealer as 35+ 2010s on the lot that they are discounting heavily. i predict they will have a tough time getting rid of them.

about the v6 vs v8 thing. Yes the v6 has become a very respectable power plant in the camaro and mustang...... but as far as me personally buying one, it will be a 5.0
