Damn, I live less than 10mi away from Flushing Meadows and I missed it. CO does looks incredible, as I knew it would.

Other than an SVT model, which I'm incredibly anxious to see, I'm very seriously considering an M4, next gen Camaro, C7 Z51, Z06 (although that'll probably exceed 100k), or even a C7 Grand Sport which is rumored to be coming. I'm also playing with the idea of ditching new cars altogether and...

+1 on the MT-82. That's why I'm opting for the hi-po which will more than likely utilize a TR6060.

I feel the same. Originally, I believed that the front fascia of the hi-po looked quite different from the spy shots at the beginning of the thread, especially since you could see a bit more than before thanks to the sun shinning through. However, based on the more recent shots, the shape of the...

In regards to your profile pic, I have to say that 1) I greatly envy individuals with original (and hopefully mint) 05' GT's, and 2) I'm thinking about taking a trip up to Watkins Glen this summer, do you feel it's worth the trip?

3.91s are even better ;D

To be fair, I'm sure Ford (and GM with the C6Z06/ZR1) is well aware that offering only one transmission option is limiting their sales. Those hi-po cars, however, were designed solely for purists, so they knew going into it that such cars weren't going to return significant profits anyway...

So the majority of people here believe it's N/A, correct? Some people over at SVT believe it'll be a bored out and blown 5.0 based motor with the heads from the GT. I'm aroused either way :D.

As it's been stated, I would SERIOUSLY take everything we're seen under the hood with a grain of salt. I mean come on, the damn engine cover isn't even complete (if they're even using the same style engine cover as the current car). At such an early stage, I'm really not stressing any part of...

I gotta ask, have you seen the hi po version (GT350/500/Cobra/whatever the hell ford wants to call it) without camo?

I apologize if I've offended anybody as that wasn't my intention. I just can't understand how simply steering the car can be as much fun as truly controlling the car through a stick. At the end of the day, nothing I or anyone else says can sway your opinion, and it shouldn't.

+1

If you're a true enthusiast, no, it wouldn't be fun. You're just a passenger in an auto. There are plenty of people that absolutely HATE the big three exotic companies (Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche) for eliminating traditional manual transmissions from their cars. I actually know one person in...

Yes, the gills looks similar. However, from some videos I've seen, especially one video of the red GT at the Venice Beach debut, the gills are not the same. What I mean is that, from what I've seen, the gills on the non-HID car are not LEDs like on the HID cars.
