Okay everyone, we've had numerous debates and speculation about the GT500 and it's proximity/effect on GT350/R sales and value over the past year+.
Now that we've seen the major muscle movements of the product, let's start taking guesses on what the pricing will be.
I'm saying "base" model, without the carbon fiber "track pack" will MSRP at $95,000.00 and the additional option of seats/spoiler/CF wheels will add on an additional $13k for an MSRP in the neighborhood of $108k.
This is all of course before dealer rape and additional markups until the supply (if ever) catches up.
The massive brakes, the special hood (with pins and removable rain cover), the 2.65L blower, the carbon fiber drive shaft, the 20" aluminum wheels and most costly, the 7 speed DCT transmission (from the Ford GT) all tell me this car is going to be well above even the 350R (in terms of sales price). Obviously the electronics upgrades are universal across models and makes, so there's escalation there too.
So chime in, throw your best guess as to the pricing. I don't think Ford is going to sell a lot of these things. I think it's going to be WAY WAY more limited than the previous GT500's were.
