Will there be "sneak peeks" on the net like they did for the 2010?

Toss the 6.2 (BIG L) idea though.

I think the best numbers you are going to see will be in the 90hp/litre range or 450hp with aftermarket parts. The only way we are going to see numbers approaching 100hp/litre is with more rpm ala M3 or GT3 which these engines redline at 8300-8400rpm. Although Porsche is getting 100hp/litre out of its 2009 3.8L 997S motor but it redlines at 7400rpm.

With the items you are showing only the cams and CAI have the potential of adding hp, the other parts reduce parasitic losses. You aren't going to get 88hp with cams and a CAI. You never know though...don't count out the aftermarket.

I think CAI gains will be negligible, but a 93 tune, freer flowing exhaust, and some other minor tweaks could get to the high 400s without much trouble.

Guess this is a sign that I'll have to buy an '11 or '12 5.0L GT!

Yes, it is a NUMEROLOGY sign, man!

As long as we don't start a 12 ways of Mustang song again, like we did for your new '10 GT, my friend!

Top edge of the front bumper looks the same. But then, this could be the 2011 V6 that is in all the videos on youtube. Either way, Race Red looks nice. Looks like a darker Torch Red.

I could be wrong but I seem to remember Boomer saying that the fog lights on the GT will be in the same place and I'm not seeing any fogs on the grill so this seems like the v6

Thank you, I love the font on the 6.2L logo, but don't like the "L"

I tried. This is a 400% enlargement and I tried to sharpen the image a little. (Click on the image) The writing is just too faint to make out. Maybe someone with good photoshop skills could do better.
