At 12:01AM on December 28, Ford announced the full details of the 2011 Mustang GT. The new power plant is the 5.0L V8 that has been rumored for some time now. It will produce 412 horsepower and 390 pound-feet of torque. The new engine is also matted to two new transmission; either a six-speed manual, or six-speed automatic that will deliver around 25 miles per gallon on the highway. The 5.0L engine was designed with TI-VCT (Twin Independent Variable Camshaft timing) to increase power and fuel efficiency. A track pack is also offered with a strut tower brace and Brembo brakes. Large 5.0 badges will adore the fenders of the new Mustang. With the Mustang being, hopefully, cheaper, faster and more fuel efficient, it will give Chevy and Dodge a run for the quickest E/T times. Now we have to see what Shelby will do for 2011. Expect the 2011 Mustang GT to go on sale in the spring of 2010.-Anthony Alaniz
