I wasn't aware of that aftermarket option for the Mustang. Now that I see it, I believe you are correct. Unfortunate, as it appears to be a base GT with a bodykit and, perhaps, suspension tweaks.

It would've been a good segment to show the upcoming GT500 against its' primary competitors.
It would have been amazing if a 500 was there!

Unfortunately those episodes were likely filmed many months ago

That's a demon (no AC), so not sure what the point of that comparison drice is going to be. I don't care much for Clarkson or their new series.

The toyota supra is going to be garbage unless you request the 2JZ engine to be installed.

Just wanted to say Toyota is doing a fairly good job at promoting the Supra and leaving proper teases.

Ford: Crickets.
When is the Supra coming out? I haven't heard much about it.

There’s been like four teasers very recently. The sound clip is awesome.
Really nasty farting noises on shift. Is that a DCT? Doesn't sound like a manual transmission.

Probably. Those are rumours.

There is a manual developed and ready to go. Not sure if it’ll make it Day one.

Anyway, not comparing the Supra to the 500, but I am comparing the way both companies are teasing them.

Teasing has never been ford’s strong suit. They just sort of Ram it in when it’s time

Sounds good, I'm sure it will drive good too, but the looks of the new Supra just don't do it for me.

The Supra, RX-7, NSX and 300ZX of the 90's were all beautiful to look at. The current stylists seem to have lost their way. There's not a single new Japanese sport car that has those old lust worthy looks - IMHO.

I'll take whatever the GT500 will sound like (or any V8 for that matter) over that ANY day of the week!
