It did get a little off topic huh? No big deal, I want to know more about the flat crank v8! How much would the gt350 cost if it truly had 600hp? I'm thinking since ford will be selling globally and increasing the base price on all models, it shouldn't be too bad. If the gt costs under...

I would think that the biggest threat to a v8 in the mustang is the eco boost v6. It has 365hp/420lb ft now, so what could a displacement increase and larger turbos do for that? Even if it couldn't match the power of the v8, it would easily make more torque. If they offered a v6 ecoboost, I...

This guy just had the continental breakfast, and is ready to be chased by rabid fans with cameras.

I saw that it might be 3400 lbs for the c7, but some places I looked said 3300. I figured best case scenario. That would make it 7.4lb/HP for the c7 So if the mustang loses 300, it will be lighter than the c7, but will have 4 seats? I will be amazed if they can shave more than 100lbs while...

Hmmm power to weight. 2013 gt 420hp 3600lb curb weight= 8.5lb/HP 2015 gt rumors 440hp 3450lb (shaving 150) curb weight= 7.8 lb/HP 475hp 3500lb (shaving only 100) curb weight= 7.3lb/HP C7 corvette 460hp 3300lb curb weight= 7.1lb/HP Maybe 475hp will part of some svt package for the gt. A...

Excellent, so that may be the gt? A new large bulge for a large horsepower rating/ different intake design?

If you can't afford the gt, the 4cyl should be a compromise on performance/price. I will have to disagree that the highest power rumors will "hurt" mustang sales. What will hurt mustang sales is releasing the new car with similar power as the current model. Some people might not care, but...

The mustang simply won't cannibalize itself. Ford can't really lose, they can only gain by offering a new line of mustangs that leave the competition in the dust. Again a 75hp gap might be a bit close but 125hp would be a second faster in the 1/4 which is a beat down. If I was in line to get a...

Yes Thank you! Look at the spokes... Don't they seem wider/slightly different than the one on the right? It also seems like the one on the right has a larger bulge in the hood.

Pretty effin sweet... I want that, but sadly I cant afford it. I could afford a focus RS though... Wouldn't a 350-360hp focus RS be right in line to compete with that AMG? We also heard that the RS might share the engine with the ECO Mustang.

If I'm on a budget I want more performance for less. Selling the car globally and sharing some components of other vehicles in the line will keep costs down. European/Asian options will obviously be slightly different to cater to that audience. I consider myself a hardcore fan, and I would want...

Im also seeing two different wheel types, in the pic with the guy getting out. I wanna see some close up pics of the track width, and the size/width of the tires.

Isn't the boss 302 under rated anyways? Perhaps using the real power figure of that engine in addition to other upgrades would make it relatively easy to reach the 475hp figure? Bolt ons get you there in a boss/gt today right? I would be embarrassed to get dragged by an s197 5.0/boss with...

Trust me I know all about bolt on gt's. Those mods would net 450-460 crank horsepower. That 11 second slip is with a sra, and some drag radials right? Wouldn't it be amazing if the s550 gt could do that all stock with tires only? A boss (440hp) with the SRA can do that today, but would they have...

I just can't get over the 475hp gt thing. It would be a dream crusher. They should get that power rating without DI. Adding DI and some other upgrades down the line should put the rating over 500hp. Add a new 10 speed auto and fuel mileage could be great.

Way to crush my dreams about 475hp in the gt :( I don't think the 2.3 will be the base but it shouldn't be more expensive than the gt. 350hp wouldn't be a problem if the power gap was closer to 125hp than 75hp between models. The 4 cyl 2.3 would likely go after the new genesis which...

It seems like if the power rumors are true, there will be 125hp separating each performance model? ST/ Turbo 2.3- 350hp $29k 2015 GT/ N/A 5.0- 475hp $32k 2015 Mach1/ N/A 5.0- 525hp $42k 2017- 6th gen beater GT350/ N/A 5.4- 600hp $52k 2015 So... GT500/ ??? -725hp $65k 2017-6th gen...

Which one was that? (s550m6g?) Also I saw the lights/grabber blue on that shelby concept, great job. :thumbsup:

Say the gt350 does indeed have 600hp. What are some guesses for what the car would be capable of in the 1/4? Mid-Low 11's? Skid pad? over 1.05g? 600hp, Launch control, maybe some rev matching downshift, new IRS. It would be an all out monster. How much will this thing cost? Maybe...

Holy crap!!! :hail: :hail: :hail: That shelby concept is the bomb!!! The front, the rear, everything with the exception of the concept wheels. The rear screams ford gt to me, and it would sway a lot of people to buy one. I know I would drop my car in a second if the s550 ends up...
