What exactly is a hood scope...that have anything to do with dear hunting?

Ford is the car company that escalated the HP wars with a 662 HP GT500 in 2013...that's how important this thing is to them! Doesn't mean that they want to win and be the straight line king. With the '16 GT350R coming on the scene, they proved that it's not just about HP and wheted our appetites...

Agreed that Ford is not interested in building a drag car but will want it to turn in strong qtr mile numbers. That said, they are interested in offering an all around performer but they are very much in on the HP war. Likely working on besting the Camaro as a track focused car while making a...

I stopped trying to anticipate the timing for a new halo Mustang...yes I do believe one is on the way and do believe that it will be a TT V8. And I believe that it is far more advanced in it's development than we would imagine. Ford is anticipating some word from FCA with specifics about the...

I'm getting the feeling that we are not too many days away from an official announcement and/or teaser video for the new GT500 (or Mach1) . . . I don't have any sort of evidence, or a quote to rely on but something is forthcoming soon! With the Detroit Auto Show coming up and details known about...

No?? What do you make of this ad for a '67 GT500 with an AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION? Bright lime/ white stripes, black deluxe interior. Numbers matching 428 dual quad with BJ/BK carburetors, stock exhaust manifolds, COBRA valve covers, and matching air cleaner. Select-O-Matic auto transmission and...

Yes, you are voice of reason! Some of these cats (and we all know who they are) get on here having us believe that they have inside knowledge but we all know that EVERYTHING we see posted her is PURELY SPECULATION. This all very entertaining but don't believe the ones that speak in...

Did I miss something?...I wasn't aware that there would be a 2018 GT350! Is this speculation on your part, or was there an announcement that I didn't see?

If there will be a GT500, there WILL BE an AT option! Ford knows that when it comes roll-out time, every automotive publication will be chomping at the bit to test it and we all know that all other things being equal, a modern day AT will best a manually shifted car. They will be looking to...

How is it that you speak with such authority on this? Do you have a FP or Ford connection?

Your post is one of the most reasonable and measured responses yet on all this speculation! Several claim to know someone at FP, or knows someone who knows someone that supposedly it the know, or has some sort of secretive connection and is telling a convincing story, but I AM VERY SKEPTICAL...

Are we making this a Chevy forum?....Can we please get back to the topic at hand and stop the GM crap!

Buying this Pill...all Ford has to do in preparation for a MY 2018 GT500 is build a few early production cars (as they did with the "15 GT 350) and assign them 2017 VIN's and could do this well into the model year. Would result in a huge launch for the GT500 and set the stage for a KR variant...

I agree with most everything you had to say here, but do believe that weight loss for 2018 through the S650 intro will be negligible...swapping aluminum for steel where possible, more aluminum in the body, lighter wheels, etc. In the end, not amounting to more than 100 lbs. The real weight loss...

Time frame would be right on the money...am on board with your thinking 100%, but I do believe that the development has been going on since before the GT350 program.

A new standard has been set with the GT350...not just a Mustang with a few performance parts and stripes added, but a world class sports coupe that takes on the best the industry has to offer! And the standard will not be lowered with a GT500 whenever it comes along. Be it a SC or TT V-8, or...

Yes, reason is they are making money on their investment! The S550 is enjoying success, making only minor changes between model years. If acceptance by the market was not there, they would have changed the marketing plan, but why should they...are blowing away the competition with the current...

Are you thinking that FP is involved in the launch of facelifted 2018 models? I don't believe that it works that way. If I read correctly, you are HOPEFUL that the Mach1 will come down the line before the any specialty model like a GT500, or Bullitt, etc. Like everyone else here, you probably...

Did I blink my eyes and miss something? So why safe to assume no '17 GT500? Things are very fluid with halo musclecar car offerings from Ford, GM and Chrysler. If GM will be bringing a high HP variant of the Camaro to market and/or Chrysler will give the Hellcat twins a HP bump, it's hard for me...

Your speculation or do you have some information from a reliable source?
