Its new technology! So how was it going to be in your 09 baby pony. If you wanted muscle, you should have bought the v8 like a real man. If you wanted fuel economy, you should have bought a 4banger!!

I always loved cars and Ford have noticed that in these past years of crisis it has changed his entire concept mainly in the U.S. market. Thank you.

It took GM & Dodge 5 years to catch up. I like the new additioanal upgrades under the hood especially the return of the 5.0. I do not like the new 2010 body style, especialy when you look at it from the front it almost looks like a Camaro. Stop, dont mess it up guys! Also stop releasing the cars before its model year..its hard to keep any value in the current year model. Overall nice job and kudos to FORD!

That's an impressive engine with brilliant technology - to get that kind of hp, torque and mpg from 3.5L is amazing. My eco-mind would appreciate that over this less-efficient 3.7L. Very disappointing. If it had the EcoBoost, I'd be tempted. I've always wanted to own a muscle car, but I've never been able to justify the fuel economy. An EcoBoost Mustang would have converted me.

With a 100+ HP diff in motors, people can justify the V8 over the 6 if they want the power. But with only about 40 HP... it will be a hard sell. I can say (being a daily stang driver) i would take a 365 HP 30MPG stang over a 400HP 25 MPG. Honestly, I will likely get the 6 anyway. My 04 V8 has less then 300 HP. And I'm more then happy with it. but she will be traded in the fall for the V6 2011 for sure they likely wont do the eco boost in the stang… here is why.

About DB's comment on the new Mustang being "crap". DB, I travel a lot and have the opportunity to drive many of Ford want-a-be cars. I rented a Nissan 350Z hardtop convertible and it was the most over rated piece of junk. On my next trip I had a V6 rag top Mustang. It was a blast to drive, top down, pedal to the metal driving across the Arizona desert. The quality and fit and finish were second to none. Move over rice rocket and let "American muscle" show you how Ford got it right! It’s about time Ford put some soul into the GT’s little brother. About DB’s comment on the new Mustang being “crap”.
