One could get a hell of a deal on a 2010 GT and slap a blower on it and spank the 2011 all day long. The 2011 will not be forced induction friendly putting it at a disadvantage.
The more I look at the specs and think about the 2010 we got the wife the more I am in favor of it. Kenne Bell anyone? :-D

What makes you think the 5.0 won't be boost friendly? Ford designed that motor with thick bulkheads, forged crank, AND provisions for an ecoboost package. They knew people where gonna play with this motor and did build it for boost. Someone posted a pretty in depth article on the 5.0 here I think and it explains pretty well about this motor. They even designed it with DI provisions.
