How do I add ASP.NET MVC 3 Web Application in Visual Studio 2010?

I have VS 2010 as follow:

Microsoft Visual Studio 2010

Version 10.0.30319.1 RTMRel

Microsoft .NET Framework Version 4.0.30319 RTMRel

Installed Version: Ultimate

ASP.NET MVC 3 Web Application project template is not available. I just see ASP.NET MVC 2 Web Application project template. How do I add MVC 3?

Just trying to follow the right path before I screw up my current installation.

Thanks

Download and install MVC 3 via web platform installer http://www.microsoft.com/web/gallery/install.aspx?appid=MVC3

When you create a new project, make sure you have selected .NET Framework 4 in the drop down. You should be able to see both ASP.NET MVC 2 Web Application and ASP.NET MVC 3 Web Application
