Looks like the 2011 base V6 (13.7 sec. rental car) and the 5.0 4v GT (395 NA rwhp) has bridged the gap in performance compared to the GT500. As for 2011.. the GT500 gets an alluminum block that sheds a little over 100 pounds which is a step in the right direction but hardly as impressive in performance upgrade compared to it's lesser brethren! What do you think Ford should do next? In my opinion.... based on a built 5.4 4V SC power plant... big power with decent EPA should be fairly easy to acheive. I've got a feeling a proper IRS will come back to SVT's brain child along with more weight reduction .... borrowed lessons learned from the corvette Z06! I don't know about upgrading to a state of the art quick shifting tranny .... since that would raise the msrp considerably. As for Styling ... I'd keep the changes tastfull and subtle. "If it ain't broke ....why fix it!" Less is more!
