The dealer told me none of the models were getting any updates. I told him he was lying that I kno for sure the GT and V6 are getting updated, he said it was news to him, and that I would be waiting for the 2011 GT500 and purchasing it somewhere else!
Well specs rolled around: 2011 GT500
- 10 HP increase (540 to 550)
- 102lbs - 132 lbs less in curb weight due to all new Aluminum Engine (depending on if you order the glass roof)
- SVT Performance Package available (knocks off 3-4 seconds at the track)
-etc...
So I can only imagine how a 2010 Mustang V6 or GT owner must feel. Every company has done this at some time this happened to me with my Vette when they went from 6.0L to 6.2L 4 years ago.

Yea the deal killer with the mustang gt i was lookign at was they wouldnt put on the ford racing supercharger.. didnt want car without it.. too slow.. traps 104mph...
Camaro SS slower then id like but I can live with it till I can get supercharger on.. When I decided to save the money and go with Camaro over GT500 figured Id just wait then in year put supercharger on Camaro SS. Shoudl take it to atleast 525wHP (615HP).. then should be a lil better..
My last car trapped 126mph in the quarter.. So of course this car is going to feel slow but I know its not bad.. It beats highway pulls wise all the cars in its class in 2010.. when I was shopping.. just couldnt come up with the money for the $48K GT500.. though it is a dream.. I never looked at vettes cuz the 2 seater thing
Sold last car cuz I need rwd... more traction
