its a good looking car and is faster than a lot of Lexus models (old and new)

...and If you want to build power, its a very good platform to $tart with.

Nice, but DUB needs to be done away with, in 2010 when most factory produced car come through with 20, or optional 20, it's time for a new slogan.

The 2011 Mustang with the V6, is way better then the 210 hp engine it is replacing, took them years to do it, but suddenly a Camaro makes a come back and Ford wakes up

Chrysler had DUB edition Chargers, most awesome low output 3.5 V6 ever

Seriously, it's like why even buy the 2010 GT's?
The six banger even has the 6 speed automatic tranny too!

I remember over here in Merced and even at Future Ford in Sacramento they had those 6 cylinder
California concept mustangs...They were asking like 40 grand for them! They weren't even
GT's!!!
Some people go for the SHOW but when it's a Mustang you gotta have the GO! I lost count
of how many people I've given rides to and they're like, "wow this car is fast!"
I assume when they think Lexus they think mostly luxury.

Why spend the money for a special-production V6 Mustang with some trim graphics, circus-wagon wheels, and rubber-band tires, when you can take the same money (or perhaps less) and get a stock 2011 GT with a 415 HP engine? I'm also not convinced that lowering the suspension has more benefits than potential problems.
