"2020 GT500's Scheduled For Production - Part 1"

What happened with the GT350s?

The plant in Mexico that makes the Mustang steering wheels went on strike. No wheels no car. They sat out in the open for a couple of months, then they found a problem with the shifter that grounded them for about an additional month. Not good times for the people that were waiting for their cars.
Through all of that, Ford said nothing.

@Tob not sure if you saw this latest OW pic but that is hot for sure.

I think it is. To be honest, I was hoping for no stripes but with a black roof. I don't think there is one in Vegas though.

New video posted up on youtube and facebook during the shelby event, and Ford stated it runs 3.3sec 0-60 on street tires obviously

So, 6 model years later, with 760 ( crank ) hp, & better tires, the 2020 MY posted a .2 sec better 0 to 60 run than the 2014 MY !!

Hard to go fast when you're a fatass!

Ya if you singularly buy $70k cars for 0-60 just buy a Tesla.

The 2000 cobra R did 0-60 in 4.4 seconds. 11 years later the gt500 finally did .2 better and went 4.2 seconds.

Which will put up faster lap times? The 00 cobra r or the 11 gt500 tp/pp?

While the trinity is no slouch, there’s no comparison on a track between a 13 and a 20.

Never had an order, the DCT has no appeal to me & there is no glass roof option..

Post # 288 listed 0 to 60 times, my post quoted that.
0 to 60 has nothing to do with lap times or track performance.
Seems you're a little touchy about the 2020's performance !!

From Austinj427:
“If you guys want the ultimate in pointless bench racing, there was a Hellcat challenge in Vegas a while back. The winner (charger) went [email protected] with tune, pulley, and ET streets. Second place (Challenger) was an 11.17@124, on a set of 555Rs.

I found this while trying to get some sort of idea on how these cars are running.”

So stock at 11.0 at 128 it’s running as fast as a modded HC with slicks.

How did 2020 GT500's Scheduled For Production get so far off course?

A VERY good question, Earl.

I’m thinking they delayed production until after the press day and embargo.

Curious move. I’m new to this forum and considering a 500, but would love some numbers before committing. Seems strange to keep the buyers in the dark, especially considering the $$$.
