Don't you think Ford has responsibility to tell all of its dealers what the allocation process is for the 15MY and if they did not receive one?
Right now it looks like a messed up publicity stunt by Ford/Shelby!
What part of Valencia. I lived once in old orchard two.
People are saying the pure driving experience the 350 is unlike anything Ford has done recently including the Ford GT and 13 GT500. Buyers are getting rid of the 13/14 because simply put the performance of the 350 is tremendous. The r...
4th quarter of this year. Late September early October.
I'm still skeptical on 137 so called 15 MY. If their are no delays they may be to dealers end of August? If they even go to dealers.
I have still seen no indications they are going to dealers through allocation or some sort of lottery for the supposed 15 model year. It could all be vip and authorized Shelby American sales.
I have talked to about 15 different dealers from 300 unit a month to Presidents Award Dealerships, speaking directly with the owner/GM of each. Not one has heard anything about the 15 MY allotment process.
Another dealer owner has talked to over 20 dealers including high volume dealers and he...
Why not? The GT350 is not a replacement for the GT500, it was not created by SVT, now Ford Performance. The GT350 will be priced near the Mustang GT such as the 01 Bullitt/03 Mach 1, 08 Bullitt, 12 Boss. After all its a replacement for the 12 Boss.
And yes I fully agree with your entire...
The GT350 is the next SVT(product) out from Ford. Yes SVT(their new name is Ford Performance) may be building another GT500 but that build design or testing has not yet begun as of this spring.
Until then SVT or FP created to GT350 to be a better performance vehicle than the last SVT...
There is no way there is another svt type mustang that will be out in a year! 2018 MY maybe. Ford GT was done in secret for over a year and we are still a year and a half out. The SVT Raptor was introduced and that is still almost 2 years out!
It takes way more time to put together a vehicle...
I'm still waiting to order the 15 gt350. Where is it?
I'm assuming you say this, meaning the gt350 is a team mustang project that will only be marginally more expensive than the boss 302 and it's low 40's msrp?
I'm simply saying it is a ford performance(formally svt) project and meant to out...
The GT350 is the current replacement for the GT500. It was built to do everything the GT500 did, and do most things a lot better! One can not do this and cut costs at the same time.
About the same 1/4(but less trap)
Better braking
Better skidpad or lateral g's
Better balance and weight
Hell of...
How is it not true? By paying the fee each year and entering the program you will get at least 1 allocation. Are you saying some dealers will pay the $1000 and not get one allocation?
This thread is about power to size of a n/a engine. You have failed to say or to compare anything that would be on topic in this thread! If you want to talk about the CA then go ahead and post some numbers to back up your point. Until then no one cares about the what the handling might be, that...
^ Weight distribution has no effect on power output as all power output is determined outside of the car on an engine dyno!
If we were talking about efficiency of getting that power to the ground or handling characteristics or other performance statistics you would be correct.
We are...
Engine location means nothing for crank horsepower output. Of course the mid engine mount will be much more efficient and lose less power when transferring to the wheels. Of course we are basing are educated guesses off of wheel horsepower.

For the 13 GT500 cd had a ride along that they posted thoughts on in mid Feb 2012. The car was available to the public in May 2012 as the MY 2013 GT500. We have seen none of this for the GT350. I think production is still two months with cars on dealer lots in Aug at earliest but more like Sept.
