With everything GM and Fiat are coming out with Ford is falling behind fast! I'm sure they're well aware of it and have something up their sleeve for the near future. I'd bet after this Demon craze wears off then they will slap it in their face... The Demon is a niche car and really not good for anything IMO. I know a guy that owned a Hellcat for 2 months because after the initial excitement wore off he realized it was a complete waste of money so he sold it before the market was saturated with them which happened quick! You can go to about any dealer and leave with a Hellcat right now. And from what I've seen many of the original owners have already sold or traded them in already in higher numbers than the GT350's at this point. I've seen 2 GT350's on used lots here and at least 10 Hellcats already... Even if the HP numbers don't match the Hellcat for the upcoming Ford offering I guarantee it will still be a better car as it will most likely handle better than anything Fiat can come out with. Their platforms are just too bulky to be considered a track car. They'd have to come up with something completely new. They brought back cars that were hot in the drag racing days and more people want a road course capable car now over a drag only car. I consider Ford and GM competitors in this race and Fiat Chrysler is just off in it's own little world.
Yeah, but again only for bragging rights, does Ford need to do any of that..^^
There is zero reason for Ford Performance Racing to go after facetious horsepower wars. And 650HP + has never been hard to do on any generation of Mustang. The only reason Chrysler is going big, is because that is all their engineers got.
GM & Ford see each other on the race track each weekend, and have something to prove. And Ford Performance Racing's engineers, are racing cars for competition.
The FPR Mustang (ie: SVT) is more about the complete package. :first:
