[QUOTE="01SVTSnake, post: 15797821, member: 53102"] The 500 and 350/R are totally different cars. Im speculating a bit here since the has no real confirmed details on the GT500 but the 350R is the ultimate mustang in terms of balance, power, and handling. 526hp is in or near the sweet spot for open tracking power. 700+ is going to be way too much for those that don't have tons of track day experience. I am not saying it won't handle, but assuming additional weight over the front from the S/C, intercooler, larger brakes, will effect the balance. I am sure Ford will cut weight else where but again that's speculation. The other big support the 350 and 350R got was from drivers mainly of a different crowd (Porsche/BMW) buying these. You won't see that was much with the GT500 since it doesn't fit the bill like the 350/350R did. Will values drop initially on the standard 350s, definitely. Will they tank, No depending on the definition of tank. However I could definitely see mid to upper 40s on lower mileage cars until they're bought up. Rs will be more protected from that due to their limited numbers. Most of the people who bought 350s from the 13-14 GT500 that didn't like them for the lack of grunt have already moved on my guess and a bit of those are currently making the used market now in addition to the ones that just want the top of the line. I can also see the 13-14 GT500 market taking a hit as well since those who are all about power will be wanting to stay with the big power top dog. Especially on the new chassis. However I could see some staying with the 13-14 too as I believe the new GT500 will stay with an independent rear. Time will tell Bait and switch. I called and they're asking 40k over. so 107,000$ [/QUOTE]
