That 3.93 would be hard for the s550 to duplicate, but I would love to see that happen. We need more power.
If the current gt goes 4.4ish and 12.7ish now, the s550 will need 40-50 more hp to get to 4.0 and 12.2ish, which would beat or at least keep up with the boss. The boss also has SRA and...
My guess is that the mach 1 would be slotted between the gt and the gt350 similar to the 03'/04' mach 1 between the gt and cobra. Maybe the first year they offer D.I for the 5.0?
Ford hasn't released power/torque numbers for one of two reasons...
1.The output will be high, 460 hp+/410 lb ft+ and they want to give the competition as little time as possible to react to the new car. :hail::ford:
2.The output will be underwhelming -440 hp/-400 lb ft. and they don't...
Well if the c7 and gt350 are nearly equal in performance and price (hopefully the gt350 will be faster) I would choose the gt350, because I'm a huge ford fan for one, but also because the gt350 will have 4 seats. Used of course, I try not to buy new cars anymore. The only thing that would sway...
I would like to see the gt pp get close to the c7...low 12 1/4 mile, maybe over 1.0g on the skidpad. If that's the case, the gt350 should eclipse the c7's performance. Despite a lower weight/lower cg/better weight distribution on the corvette. If the gt350 has some serious power, wider tires...
If we want to take a trip down memory lane, 1967 was the first year the gt500 was produced with the police interceptor 428. Maybe if history repeats itself we will see the gt500 in a couple of years. We need something to knock on the z28's door right now... Base price will be lower than the z28...
Price=performance IMO
The limits of the car are solely based on how much it costs them to build it. If we see a FPC :hail:(fingers crossed), it will be higher than the current gt500's $55k for sure. How much does it cost to develop a FPC v8 that is intended for 5,000+ cars (which share a a...
I just want to see ford build a car that I would want to buy used a year or two down the road honestly.... I'm not in a position to buy a mustang anyways, I love the truck too damn much. I actually traded a 2012 brembo 5.0 yellow blaze metallic for it, the girlfriend has a dog who goes...
I'm very familiar with revan racing and the videos of van taking a gt500 to the track against Erik in his ZL1 (I was rooting for the 2013 since the first rumors), but wouldn't cc brakes reduce fade even more than just a pad/fluid swap? I would have liked to see it as an option for a car that has...
That's assuming the gt350 is indeed a boss replacement, and that the 2016/2017 mach 1 is vaporware and wont slot between the gt and gt350 power/price wise. Your guess is as good as mine.
I think there was a lesson learned about the cc brakes on the gt500, the 2013/2014's certainly could have...
Sure, the mach 1 is just speculation at this point, but honestly so was the boss 302 returning before official info was released. People like you claimed it was just a rumor and probably wouldn't happen. Time will tell...
The mules have been spotted with cc brakes so it will likely be an...
Also, to the people who claim a fpc v8 is unreasonable and won't make it into a production car for cost reasons. How would a gt350 that will cost less than $50k and have over 500 horsepower be reasonable? There isn't a single car on the market with that power for price, hell the c7 with 460hp...
I don't think the gt350 was meant to replace the boss, it was confirmed that the gt pp will outperform the boss and will probably hover around $40k with the performance package and a few other options. The next level might be the mach 1 later on and will slot in like the 2003 lineup...
I'm thinking the base price will be around $60k.
I remember reading a rumor somehwere that all models would be seeing a 10% base price increase. That seems to be true about the gt which went from $30k to $33k. The 2014 gt500 base was $54k so 10% should put it at $60k.
I'm hoping for some...
I want to see the EB s550 run a low 13 (13.2-13.3) in the 1/4. It will be funny seeing 4cyl mustangs dragging 5th Gen ss Camaros down the track with a tune/bolt ons.
I think we should see low 12's (12.1-12.2) for the new gt with the right power/weight. As far as driving dynamics and handling...
475hp 420 lb ft.
Exceeding the lt1, and matching the 6.4 hemi horsepower would be a very smart move this year. Stay ahead of the game, if the lt1 goes in the 2016 Camaro and it weighs under 3600lbs, an update to 500 hp with direct injection 2 years down the road would keep ford ahead despite...
Im still standing by these numbers. I want to see some gts run high 11s at the fast tracks with stock rubber on youtube this fall. I also want to see some ecoboost models beating stock Camaro ss by a tenth or two. Also a gt350 running 11.1, then maybe the gt500 they build later can go into the...
