maybe my eyesight is bad but if that says 200 the first "0" doesn't look like the second "0" in 200...

Ok, I guess the current six only makes 190, so "over 200" makes sense.

I swear on one of the picture captions, I can see 290 HP SOHC...might that be a tip off for us?

But how much HP over 200 will the V6 Mustang have? Just by saying that it will have over 200 HP means nothing. We need to know EXACTLY how much HP it will have.

Ford should add some blown side scoops and a blown hood scoop. The car looks really nice, but it will look nicer with Blown side and hood scoops.

I'd rather have the mufflers slightly exposed than have the car explode when rear-ended. I think the rear wing is pretty ghey though.

Hmm...from here it doesn't look like the seats have changed much.

I hope that Ford realizes how bad the current GT seats are. I would rather have a comfortable cloth seat than the current leather GT seats.

Hopefully they'll fix the grinding issue before then.

Doubt it.

I like the look but the rear is still isn't growing on me, if I were getting a new GT I'd probably opt for a spoiler delete.

You did see something about 290HP. But it also said that the 290HP is a V6. I couldn't tell if right before that it said Supercharged. But I would assume if a V6 has 290 HP it would have to be supercharged. I wonder how the 8 will run.

Actually as I look @ it closer I realize that it's not 290HP. It is 200-something plus. But I can't tell what.

A 6-quart oil pan in the GT is just sick wicked.

They estimate the weight less than 3450lbs, thats cool, that would make it about as heavy as the current one but with 40 more hp.

I thought the current models weight was around 3460 or so? I think the Mach is 3465 IIRC

Definitely a panhard bar in the rear suspension according to that spec sheet. Finally some lateral axle location!
