2023 GT500

[Evolvd]

Just did a 320 mile road trip today...22.5 MPG including non-highway portions, both directons in normal mode, 7th gear, cruise control for the whole trip with a few small pulls to pass. Rolling hills, lots of flat. No wind. Less than one tank. Blew my mind. MPG has been getting better over time. I love the car even more now.

How much “non highway”? I average 17 on the lying cluster gauge at 80mph.

Only a few miles of non-highway. That is essentially the highway MPG I was getting at 60-65 MPH

After 1300 miles, my average (lie-o-meter) mileage is 14.5 mpg. This is for about 50/50 highway vs. city driving.

60-65 on the highway? I don’t have that much self control

Back on Topic...Any thoughts if a 2023 GT 500 is in the cards considering the paint color reveal this week?

The general consensus by most is no.

I’m still saying it’s doubtful for 23. Maybe try to get a 22 if it works for you financially, or a used 2020 or 2021. Happy hunting!

I’d never trust a dog that doesn’t spell their own breed correctly. ;)

Real bold words from someone that doesn't know jack shit.

Yeah, he must know a lot, he lives in Ohio and drives an '84 GMC. Fricken tool.

Y’all mind taking your petty bull to PM? The rest of us don’t care to read it and don’t care who has the last word.

Does anyone have any evidence, solid evidence, of a '23 500? The answer is no. This is just a wishful thread of hopes and possibilities.

I will answer the question before its asked.... No I don't have any proof that there won't be, but like I said, S650, housewife blue heritage car, and these CF wheels coming available on the market from sources at ford (just li!e the way of the 350R), all signals to me that there will not be a '23 500.

Sorry to break the news to the ones who wouldn't pay the ADM thinking that in later years it would ease. If you want one, you better scramble and find one that is left (if they exist).

 

[hossman]

I remember I bristled at paying ADM and wound up getting it down to $6100 from $15,000. I guess looking back I’m glad I scored my car at that price because man o man did it get worse. Just like Tomster said no concrete answer on a yes or no on a 23 model but I’m sticking to a firm no for 23.

I used to be in the “definite maybe” camp. This was based upon the RaptorR using the same engine & transmission. Therefore, all the hard parts would still be in production.
While the Predator engine will still in production for at least two more years, the RaptorR uses an updated 10 speed automatic vice the DCT.
So, unless they have a warehouse full of DCTs sitting around, I’m backsliding to just a “could be.”
