Also, they published a review of the upcoming 2004 mustang model in 'car and driver' mag that im subscribed to. This was from the march 03 edition.

It says:
The base Mustang will continue to be a V6--"about 200 horsepower"- but probably not the current 3.8 liter pushrod motor. What of the V-8? Our spies suggest it won't be the current 260-hp, 4.6 liter SOHC V-8. More likely it will bne a variation of the 300-hp, 24 valve V-8 from Ford's truck group.

"What you're going to see is an engine you've seen before," Marten says, "but maybe in a different Ford product. And I guarantee you will not be dissappointed.

We expect a high output V-8--at least 400 horsepower--as well as an independent rear suspension on the next SVT Cobra, due within a year or so of the new Mustang.

Expect this one to come out in showrooms before late spring 2004.
So my point is that the Cobra version is the only one that will have 400 hp, the rest are expected to have 260 and less.

here's some more info on the new power ponie

Under the hood of the Mustang GT is a 4.6-liter V8 with aluminum heads, a belt-driven supercharger, and a liquid-to-air intercooler that produces 400 horsepower and 390 lb-ft of torque. (if the GT, gets 400 horse now....i can't wait to see the cobras/saleens/roush's which usually produce 40% more horse  :o )

i want to clarify that once again 8)

This is from a British car mag called 'CAR'

i love the mag, THIS IS WHAT IS SAYS BOUT THE MUSTANG:


Top-of-the-range Cobra versions will be powered by a 400bhp supercharged version of Ford's 4.6-litre V8, driving through a six speed manual gearbox. There will also be a 280 bhp naturally aspirated V8 version-to be called GT- and a 215 bhp 3.0-litre V6. Pricing is expected to start at about US$21,000 and stretch to about US$35,000.

yea about 90% of this car will be same..just the interior ofcourse will be different...more like the nowaday interiors you see in the mustangs. But this is certainly a dope looking car. Props to Ford.
