[QUOTE="biminiLX, post: 16452821, member: 7795"] Glad to share the pics from an awesome day. Yes, Ford supplied all the cars. I would have LOVED to throw one of the Recaro seats and a pallet of CF wheels in the back of my truck! :) I hope these cars and parts aren’t crushed when they’re done with these events. So, this is a great question as I also bought my ‘14 GT500 new. I think the best way to describe it is big stroke/torque 5.8, true manual, solid axel vs high rev/lower torque 5.2, DCT and IRS. The S550 chassis is more refined and much smoother with better handling by virtue of IRS/Magneride, better brakes and higher weight. It’s street/strip vs street/track. I was very impressed with the DCT on a quick street drive last month, using both manual and auto modes, but absolutely astonished by the shifting in the Track mode, allowing me to focus on braking, turning instead of shifting. My wife and kids will likely the new GT500 more and I think I’ll drive it much more, while the ‘14 will be more fun and stress relief by the raw nature, manual trans and huge power. I only intend on minor bolt ons on the ‘21, just like I did with my ‘04, while the ‘14 was bought intending to build the best street/strip manual Mustang I could. Key I would definitely recommend driving a GT350 and GT500 if you have to decide on selling the 5.8 car. -J [/QUOTE]
