Dont hold your breath
I'm still screwing off about whether I should go with the tried and true 4.6L or should wait for the 5.0L. I wanna see what's happening with the V6s first, because if they're going to be making 315 hp like this "source" claims, I'm not going to be real happy about my purchase.
I've gone 35 years without a Mustang. I can wait a little bit longer. I'm still leaning towards going with the trusty 4.6L.
I wouldn't necessarily be all that unhappy. If all goes as planned I'll have a blower under the hood by this time next year and my little old 4.6 will make more power, granted it's with FI, but you have to realize that for a few years who knows where the 5.0 will go and parts for it will be expensive, and I'd rather have an engine with readily available, and affordable parts to mod it with. I'm waiting til the next refresh after everything is worked out with the new motor and more parts are available before I buy one. It will be nice to have a stock GT capable of walking all over an SS though

Not quite sure even with 400hp your going to "Walk" all over a 12.8 13.0 running car. Albeit the new GT weighs in around 37-3800lbs with the new motor and trans. It sucks, but im sure its going to gain some weight. Ill bet its runnin around the same times as the SS. Just being realistic
As far as modding goes, the whole Mod motor has never been easy to mess with. You can expect more expensive parts for sure, along with labor. Either way I think it'll be great to see the 5.0 again.
This thread sounds like Fast and the Furious. You guys living your life a quarter mile at a time?
At least I'm not driving a blown 4 banger with a metal wing and exhaust pipe big enough to stick my head in that sounds like a lawn mower
Well, you do certainly make some fine points, and besides that, if you're like me and like to keep warranties intact, it'll be a few years, and normally, when I buy a car, I don't get around to modifying it for a few years, anyway, other than with simple things like a CAI, exhaust, and tune/chip. Since I can get a Roushcharger covered under warranty and make 435 hp, I guess I can deal with that.
