On it's first run the Mustang GT hits a 12.8, you don't seriously think the numbers wont get better as time goes on do you? Long term I'm looking for 12.6 second times from the auto rags.
Every magazine got 13.0 or 12.9 on the first try. I didn't notice any going back and retesting for better numbers.

I definitely think the numbers will improve with real world drivers, but I'd imagine it'll be consistent with the R/T, '10 GT and SS improvements (approximately 4 tenths seems to be the magic number). Which would still put it ahead of the SS by a tenth, which isn't all that large of a number (but still ahead!).
