I believe I read with empty tank and trunk junk removed.

So, 3700ish. Not bad still.

3705 is base GT curb weight.

 

[Nataphen]

I didn't know if 3705 was base GT or base GTPP.

That's base weight. I believe base GTPP cars have been weighed around 3750lbs:cheers:

 

[Nataphen]

I assumed 50ish lbs. for the PP. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

It's purely bragging rights. Ford has to win one of these battles eventually. It seems like chevy has one upped on every model run.

Silly to say. Ford won so many battles, GM stopped producing the F-body for several years. Beating your rival into submission = bragging rights. ;)

Besides, while the ($72,000+ )Z/28 wins on a road course, the GT500 is easily faster. That said, the GT500 isn't in production right now and I expect the next 1 to wield a 3.5L TT making between 600 and 700 hp.

87 Octane could damage the Voodoo. It's very high compression and anything under 93 will cause issues.

I doubt 91 will hurt it a bit and 87 is probably usable, thanks to the seriously capable computers.

Eh... big deal.

Thanks! That's lighter than I'd have expected.

does that R have the electronics package on it?

Yes on the electronics package. It's oxford white with blue over the top stripes. Shipping weight of 3566 lbs is going to show on the invoice of all 37 '15 GT350R's, regardless of whether they have the electronics package, as Ford posts the shipping weight based on the particular trim level without options. Who knows how much the electronics package weighs?

That's quite a silly statement as many areas have only 91. Ford isn't stupid.
