Doesn't matter.
It's dead in here...come on FORD

Love how you all are always talking about my knob...just remember that I gave that info BEFORE ANYONE ELSE, even the great and mighty who poke fun here.
Speaking of which, Bimini, Zemedici, On D Bit and Blk 02 Edge...you all are so quick to poke fun at others, yet at the end of the day I did provide factual info on the car before its release and NONE OF YOU were able to do that.
That's right, the same person you are trying to make fun of actually did more than you.
Hahahahahaha.
October you blessed us with this leak.

A few months earlier in July, someone else already told us.
Good work.
Wrong again.
He also liked this post, claiming a shifter was going to be in the same place they always have been.
Holy YAWN FACTORY Batman!...Can Ford give us NOTHING to discuss? They are stalling. Numbers aren't were they need to be. I've seen the Mid-Engine Vette numbers. Bad timing FORD. Your track beast GT500 is about to look real silly for less money.
I agree. If Ford doesn’t want to put out the information Kaneda is wanting then the car is surely going to go the way of the Chevy Chevette
1-You dont know any c8 numbers
2- the c8 vette has been dragged out for yeaaars
3- corvettes have always made mustang specs "look silly" as they are not the same thing
4- **** off
Yawn factor. You never have anything else to say...
But the difference is that the base GT500 starting in the mid 60's is the same as an entry level Corvette C8 price so yeah, there should be some concern in regards to performance per dollar.
So? Base corvettes have been cheaper than gt350s for years now.
If you want a 450hp, maybe 475hp mid engine corvette for mid $60’s (I do) then a 750hp gt500 probably isn’t the car you want.
If you want a 750hp, maybe 800hp gt500 for mid $60’s (I do) then a 475hp mid engine corvette probably isn’t the car you want.
The gt500 is closer to a zr1 in a straight line. The c8 mr base vette is a bit better than an Audi R8 v8.
Surely you’re not suggesting the c8 is only 13 years late...?
When I said performance, I meant overall performance and didn't mean just straight line or I would've mentioned the Dodge as it owns that segment. Willing to bet you could throw a power adder on the C8, be under the GT500 Carbon price and it would outperform it everywhere.
If that's what you'd want, cool. But not everyone even wants a C8. If I had to choose between the new GT-500 and a C8, I'd go with the GT-500. A slight price difference on either model wouldn't deter my choice. JMO.
...and void the warranty on your new mid $60k vette.
I immediately voided the warranty on my $67k 13 GT500 with mods...along with a LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE, lol.

I'm really happy for ya, but most wont want to do that.
JMO, historically I disagree.. moving forward with Shelby program you could be right.... meaning most = greater than 50%
For me, when I had my 2010... yeah it had LT's and a KB 2.8 on it before it was 1yr old. Same with previous cobras..
With this one being an 80k purchase and DCT, I'm gonna slow my roll this time around and enjoy the 700hp it came with. Then do a tune once they're all ironed out.
I am in no hurry to mod this time around. Time will tell though.
