Current GT500 development started before December 2015, prior to August of 2015.
So yeah, that's more that 4 years...

- Thread starter tt335ci03cobra
- Start date
Says who? Did they start the GT500 before the release of the GT350?
Considering your track record for wrong information....

On the OP topic.
If it doesn't outperform the ZL1LE on track then it's a fail for sure.
I'm waiting to see. I love my '14 to death. But dying to see what the '20 will be. If it's cool, I'll be trying to find a way to get one.
I think the base will be in the $70's, optioned up well into $80s, which is crazy for a stang, but if it's a 'world beater' then the price is fair territory. Counting the days …..

I'm hearing that it's stupid fast in a straight line.
It's stupid fast in a variety of directions.
Good for reverse 180’s? Haha
J turns and drifting. Millenials rejoice
My pants just got a little tighter...where can i read more about this "rumor"?
They forgot the tidbit about 4 doors.....
I rewatched some videos on the GT last night, there was one by Doug where he goes 20 minutes on the minutia.
Ford Performance can make the gt500 pretty ****ing incredible if they don’t get their hands too tied up by accounting for tons of base model factory appointments.
I’d be fine with a $100-125k KR variant that is very done up with active aero, bigger brakes, some composite materials, an extra 50-100hp, etc.
The s197 KR was what, like $90k? 540hp and chassis tuning? Regular gt500 was $50k for 500hp, regulars chassis tune etc.
Will never happen, but my point is Ford can make a hell of a gt500 if they didn’t have ceilings/budgets to keep in mind
like finally quenching a thirst...ahhhhhh
that's refreshing
I'll be eager to get behind the wheel.
It has potential for 140mph trap speeds if it makes 700whp and ~weighs 3950-4100lbs.
7spd dct will do wonders.
The 3300lbs full downforce GT does 135+ with 550-575whp and 3300lbs

Dude, put the pipe down. A 4000+ lb car with 7XX hp is not going 145 mph in the quarter.
Any trap of 130mph or higher as delivered from Ford would be amazing.
I’ll take it from there
Really want to try a DCT in this car, so I hope I’m satisfied.

I said if 700whp and 3900-4150lbs, 140. I stand by it. I don’t think it’ll make 700whp factory though.
The car will probably make 630-675whp if it’s rated from 720-775hp.
I’ll keep my pipe, excuse me while I light my pipe. My point was that if it makes 700whp stock, it has 140 in it. I think it’ll hit 130-135 in magazine hands. Demons do 125-138 in mag hands so far. Privately they’ve hit 141 iirc.
In my hands a new gt500 will hit 160 in the quarter because I’ll give it some whiskey

Does this mean it can hit 144 in the 1320??? Hahaha
That's not what you said before you edited it.
Correct, caveat, I posted that 3+ hours ago, and edited it about 1-2 min after.
You quoted it 2 hours later. Well after I’d edited it. It is possible you saw my post about my older 756whp cobra doing 141 with a t56 but that was up for all of 2 minutes or so.
In any extent, I edited that post to simply my message.
I quoted it literally one minute after you posted it. Check again.
