The LA Auto Show is officially over and I'm sure many of you are wondering what happened to the long anticipated 2011 Mustang GT reveal. Well to be honest we don't know. From everything we heard the V8 version of your favorite pony car should have been unveiled at the auto show two weeks ago. Speculation is that prototype just wasn't ready for the big show so Ford chose to hold it back. Another theory is that Ford didn't want to overshadow the unveiling of the new Fiesta with the awesome new Mustang GT. Either way it seems to be a pretty safe bet that we'll be seeing the 2011 Mustang GT at the Detroit Auto Show in January. Keep your fingers crossed!
