    2011 GT schedule date

    I guarantee you 95% of dealers will tack $5,000 to the sticker of every new GT they get. Most dealers do this on all cars, all years, let alone a hot ride like the new GT. My dealer has quoted me an awesome price to order one from the factory and I still hope to do that this week. There are...

    Pics of my 2010 GT

    Compared to most pics on the web, yours are very nice. The lighting is about perfect. Not 12:00 under a bright sky where you get nothing but harsh shadows, but soft light that really shows off the cars lines. Greg

    I ordered a 2011 5.0 on my order sheet is says order type a?

    I am curious as well. Given this car's performance potential, 14" brembo's make a lot of sense. It will cost a lot more than $1,600 to upgrade brakes on your own. Greg

    Motortrend Dynos the 5.0 at 435 hp 6500 rpm

    Edit: I just read the article. 365 rear wheel and they interpolated it back to 425. Are we really to believe the new 5.0 is putting down 425 REAR WHEEL HP??? That is like 500hp at the crank shaft. I can't believe I still haven't ordered one yet . . . Greg

    When do payments start when you order a new car?

    Often times you have the option to start payments at 30 or 45 days from the date of signing. This allows folks like me with a house payment due on the 1st to have a car payment due on the 15th. Greg

    Edmund's 2011 Mustang GT dyno real?

    Those are some serious numbers! Almost 400 rwhp from a stock 34K mustang? Unreal! I still haven't ordered mine yet . . . Greg

    Is this 2010 GT a Good deal?

    You would probably need to put a few grand down but with that over 60 months, you wouldn't be much over $360/month. Greg

    Has the 2011 v6 and 5.0 made the 370z much less relevant???

    I don't consider the Mustang and Z to be direct competitors. The Z will probably always handle better so a person after a pure sports car will probably go Z. I like V8 sound and fury and given my bad luck with Nissan over the past 4 years, would never consider a Z. Greg

    So did production of 2011 Mustang start today? March 22?

    The latest I have heard is that job 1 was moved to April 2, 2010. Greg

    Gear ratios for new 6 speed manual

    Does anyone know how 6th gear in the new manual gear box compares to 5th in the old car? I saw a post somewhere where the OP claimed 5th in the 2010 had a ratio of .88 to one and 6th on the new manual gear box was .86 to one. I can't find that post so I thought I'd see if whoever posted that...

    2011 Mustang GT Proposed Order

    Given the 100 extra hp and closer gears in the 6-speed, I'd still go for the 3.55's. Ought to be plenty of oomph there. :nice: Are you sure it is only 100 rpm? Greg

    2011 Mustang GT Proposed Order

    I will be ordering a very similar car tomorrow if I follow through with my plans. I'll skip the nav system as I have a hand held GPS that will work well enough. I like the Kona blue but think it is better suited to a luxury car like a BMW 6 series. I'll go with plain jane ordinary white but...

    Advice needed! 2010 vs. 2011

    I am/was dead set on a 2011 but yesterday drove a track pack 2010 and what a nice car that was! I will only buy a white GT premium and if the dealer had a white one with the track pack I would have bought it on the spot. The 2010 I drove had a list of around 34k and was marked down to 27k...

    MADE MY 2011 STANG PURCHASE TODAY!

    You are not the only one wondering this. I doubt Ford will offer any incentives on thew new car but it would be nice to know what their plans are. As bad as I want a 2011, I might a 2010 if I can find one with the right options. The price difference is pretty substantial with current...

    Is this 2010 GT a Good deal?

    If you were to finance the car over 60 months your payment might not be too much more. Then you actually own the vehicle and don't have to worry about too many miles. Personally I don't like leasing as I like to own but that is just me. Greg

    Removing the fake fuel cap atrocity

    Not knocking your car personally but I think the car looks a whole lot better with the cover than without. Looks like someone tore the thing off. Greg

    10 or 11, which way to go?

    I hope to get a 2011 but won't jinx myself just yet. As much as I like the new engine, I really like the 6-speed gear box and upgraded brakes. The fact that I can get 400hp is icing on the cake. I'd say to get the 2011 but if you are happy with the acceleration and braking, then save the...

    2011 Mustang at Detroit Auto Show - New Pics

    Sunset Gold was an abysmal color in person. That new yellow is pretty nice but I'll take mine in white or grabber blue. Greg

    Colors in 2011?

    How does going to a 13" rotor from an 11.5 add 150 pounds? I find that hard to believe. Greg

    Info leaked on the 2011 GT from Edmund's

    If the new engine is 20% lighter at 430 pounds, the outgoing 4.6 must have weighed 500+. There is no way a 6-speed manual should add more than 100 pounds so I can't see the new car weighing much more than the 2010. Where is the weight gain? Not the engine. Maybe the transmission but what...
