<br />
Thanks to a loose-lipped Facebookian that couldn't help sharing insider information and a quick follow-up post from Inside Line, we can now confirm the return of the iconic 5.0-liter <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/mustang">Mustang GT</a> for 2011. Even better news is the fact that the mill will crank out an impressive 412 horsepower.<br />
<br />
By way of comparison, the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/camaro">2010 Chevy Camaro</a> SS has a 6.2-liter V8 with as much as 422 horses when mated to a six-speed manual and the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/challenger">2010 Dodge Challenger</a> SRT8 has a 6.1-liter Hemi that offers 425 ponies. And remember, both of those rivals are considerably heavier than the Mustang.<br />
<br />
As much as we'd like to unload more goods on the 2011 Mustang, you'll just have to wait until Ford's good and ready. Or someone blows another embargo, whichever comes first.<br />
