It looks like it's driven through a cheap modification store. Much rather get a GT350, proper engine with a proper gearbox
I’m conflicted. There are times when I see it and I feel like that’s a great evolution to the 350, and then other times I agree with you.

The performance will be the deciding factor.

I don't think it's supposed to look like the GT350 at all. completely different design direction.

Personally, I think the 500 is the best looking Mustang ever made.

It looks modern, futuristic, and sleek.

I think the 500 vs. 350 looks are like those who prefer Lambo over Ferrari. If you like clean lines and angles, you'll like the 500 (or the lambo). If you like curves and rounded shapes, you'll like the 350 (or Ferrari)

Looks like we are in for rain later today and tomorrow here at Goodwood. If they want to put in a fast run it’s going to have to be this morning!

This....the 07-09 GT 500 is the reason we are where we are today and yes that includes Corvette, Camaro and Challenger....It's also the reason I would like to keep my 09 when I get this car.

Hmmm, not thrilled.

3rd gear, 100mph, 6500 rpm.

It does look like this car will have 2 overdrive gears.

I’m afraid ford’s gearing is even worse than the GT350, and they had an extra gear to work with.

Thoughts? Also, check engine light lol. Prototype.

I already planned on using that information in the gearing and acceleration calculators i have on my laptop to find out what it actually has in it, when i get back to it.

These Goodwood videos are kind of weak so far. Nothing invokes the insatiable “I gotta have it!” reaction like when the Stig drove the red GT350R at Goodwood a few years ago.

Two more data points for you:

4th, about 125@6400
5th, about 130@5350
