An ad for a V6 Mustang that got my heart pumping, I really want one of these, actually...I'm pretty sure this is what I'm buying once I graduate.

I know a lot of you like to bitch about the new design, but this is by far the best Mustang design overall I have ever seen, since the 60s. Everything on it was done right, and this looks mean as hell. A Newedge or 05-09 S197 can not look this good.

Wow dude....i want. The only thing id change is the powerplant. Still 5.0 would be nicer but then again who can afford it? I really think on the 2010+ models the billet grill really sets them off, along with either a shaker hood or some type of hood scoop. I used to hate the new designs as soon as they came out, but now i love them.

Ford has impressed me.

Awesome car.

The most awesome marketing since Europe's commercial for the Ford GT.

Simply sickkkk.

Seriously? A v6 with damn near enough power to match any STOCK v8 in its past years? I do want. I won't mind seeing them in a few years after guys have put the money to actually build something nasty with them.

I'll tell you this, in about 3-4 years, expect to see a v6 mustang well into the 8s in the 1/4. Sad, they haven't been able to do it yet, but I think with this new motor, they will.

08mustang gt posted a link awhile back (I think it was him) of a sweet aftermarket saleen bumper that makes it look so bad ***

Yup, AM has one like it. http://www.americanmuscle.com/xenon-...iler-2010.html That saleen has a completely different bumper to match it so i think the xenon ones cheaper and easier.

The ****'s HOT, and I want. I don't really care for the bottom plastic on the rear bumper, but I think it is tons better than the '05-'09, and aftermarket will fix that. Been a long time (if ever) since a v6 Mustang was respectable. I feel bad for owning a Sn95 GT now.

ugh, this gets so much more tempting every time i see posts about it. this looks like an incredible car, though i think im going to wait and find a used one because dealers are jacking up the prices even on the V6's. i havent seen anything under 30k for the V6 around here.

It's not all that hard to do yourself either. Just take the lights off, some sanding, and spray them with some lens tint and clear coat.

nope, not at all. using the vinyl isn't difficult either. when i did mine, i used the kit of pre-cut sections from autobadges.com but the next time i do it i think ill just get a sheet of it and do it myself.

Yea, the only reason i like them, is because they make the whole tailight very fluid and not as section like. If they were made less cheap and actually fit well and didnt have the stupid logo on them i would love them. I havent seen tint on the 2010s though.

really? i'm not a big fan of the look that they have. i like how the tint on my current tail lights turned out because it still shows the surface of the housing rather than just putting a dome around it.

Win with the '11 powertrains.

Fail with the '10+ design from the door handles back.

As far as I'm concerned the rear of the car was not given nearly as much attention as the front. The front of the car is damn near perfect with a lot of attention to detail. The back on the other hand just looks completely out of place and absolutely does not flow with the rest of the car.

The new v6's are definitely cool, and the performance of them is finally where it should be (in line with other v6s out there like the 350/370 Z's and such). The only upsetting thing is going to be for all of us new edger's and 05-09 GT's. when one of these 2011 V6's is nipping at our heals. They have me seriously looking at gears this summer, maybe boost as well to widen the gap a little bit more. Ford definitely stepped its game up for 2011. I honestly started looking at 2011 GT vert and trading in the cobra, but they are well into the 40k range with all the options I would want, but I feel I love my cobra too much to ever actually get rid of it.

That Mustang is stunning, except for the taillights. I don't think I will ever get past the hideousness of them. I always thought they'd have to grow on me. I've seen this shitloads of times, but they never seem to look even a slight bit better.
