Actually, I'm not wrong, because I know that the engine will make more than 400hp and 360lb-ft of torque....I just don't yet know how much more. I've said it before and I'll say it again, you can choose to believe it or not...but it is accurate...and I'll continue to post it for the benefit of those who want to know what is coming.

Who said it wasn't going to add weight? 3600lb is a gain in weight for the GT. Most GT's weigh in at 100lb less than that.

Weren't you just railing about speculation? I fail to see why you are taking this so personally. The truth is that Mustang has been an extremely profitable car for Ford and they have admitted as much on several occasions. Nothing coming for 2011 indicates a drastic change in the cost equation for this car, so I have no idea upon what you are basing your argument that the car will increase significantly in price. In fact, don't be surprised if the car drops a bit in price.

For the 2010MY I don't expect any performance increase at all, but then 4.0L info for the 2010MY is basically non-existent so I could be missing something here. As for 2011, while V6 engine output is still somewhat fuzzy we do know that the V6 engines output will be somewhere above 265hp. But then that info is easy to come by. The most basic 3.5L version of the Duratec pumps that much out already, and the version the Mustang will receive will have undergone something of an upgrade.
