From a credible source on a Facebook post:

Confirmed and okay for public knowledge.

1. It will be released in MY 2019.

2. There is going to be a one year overlap of both models, so the will 350 live on in 2019.

3. It's going to be powered by a 5.2 crossplane crank modular engine.

4. It has the best qualities of the last generation of GT500's combined with characteristics of the 350 and 350R.

Straight from Ford.

Call me a blasphemer, but I'd like to see the 3.5 EB in a mustang!
Just a nice exhaust and tune on a EB v6 Mustang would be VERY impressive numbers. Have you seen what the Fusion Sport runs with the AWD weight and just mild mods? They are running like 12.6-7's with JUST a tune on 93oct. Give one e85 and exhaust, I wouldn't be surprised if they are RIGHT on the heels of a 2018 GT Manual.

And that is with the 2.7. The 3.0 and 3.5 should be MUCH more aggressive.

on the back half of the 2019 MY, which will be in Calendar year 2019.
I'll guess 500 or less built for 2019 MY and full steam ahead for 2020MY.

The real only thing that is now confirmed is the ‘19 model run of the 350, and still not official.

Any other info that we didn’t know? Seems [MENTION=33371]Farruko[/MENTION] called that last month or earlier.

Also confirmed by DBK on SVTP, so take this info to the bank!
As a person who has no idea who "DBK" is and just sees SVTP as a cespool of elitist racist rednecks, that doesn't really mean anything to me.

I like to disassemble things.

Easily the most ignorant comment of the year.

Being as I've seen its users blatantly use racial slurs in threads that staff is also commenting in and they seemed to have 0 issue with it... no, its not. It's just accurate.

That site is more circle jerk than a Honda board. I've seen more tolerance on Camaro6. I utterly can not properly express my disgust for that place. I had joined in 2005 and now I prefer to distance myself from it. Sadly some of its threads do have good information so I find myself on it via Google often.

Could not agree more .....although it would be unfair to generalize/stereotype like a lot of members on there do (e.g if you like mustangs then you must hate all "liberals").
I'm sure what I said does not apply to all. Just enough that I try to avoid it.

"Bullitt Hopeful" :lol:

What are you hoping for? My money is on that you never get one. People like you drive leafs or a Prius. Tell Bernie Sanders I said hello.
Actually you're right. I won't be getting one. Bitch t-boned me last week so by end of this week I'll have to "settle" for a Shelby.

EDIT: TO be clear I'm using "settle" because I do prefer the Bullitt's looks over the GT350, but yes, it is a better performer. I would just rather get a car now and get over it, than have to milk a beater or loaner for 3 months or more.
