DBK, Do you think they will offer the CF wheels and wing as options or do you have to go with the Track Package?

1LE is a monster; it will indeed be close.
And boys, add up all those track goodies and this car will be 90K. MSRP. Just wait.
Look it was a lame as **** reveal. But what really sucks is the loss of handbrake and that lame ass Ford Fusion rotary dial for gear select. Other than that, it's awesome. Just wait for the price. Gonna shock a lot of people.

Just to remind people.

0-100: 5.1
1/4 9.65@140
Course nobody has ever gotten those times, ever. But my penis grows when I say them

The GT500 is going to be a beast. But my Demon with race fuel will walk it.

Dunno. I’m sure not, but I’ll be at FP this afternoon and ask.
Rotary dial = ghey
Car sounds great from the factory, also has some impressive stats.
...but that rotary dial shifter is terrible... also remember the Ford GT has the same thing.
I'll be keeping my old boat of a GT500.

I bet with some DR's the GT500 is a blast to drive!
HP guesses based on the trans ???

TREMEC has unveiled this family approach with a 7-speed, 900Nm (664 lb-ft) dual clutch transmission that takes into account a modular design for RWD, AWD and transaxle platforms.
All subsystems and components were precisely designed to assure maximum performance of the complete transmission system. The system is optimized by unique friction material, efficient hydraulics, low-leak solenoids, plus a transmission control unit equipped with sophisticated, application-specific software.
Features at a glance:

- Torque capacity of 900 Nm (664-lb-ft)
- 9,000 RPM maximum input speed
- Performance-oriented gear ratio spread
- Integrated mechatronics

Ugly. Not particularly fast. Way late to the show for these specs. Will cost more than the competition. Pretty much cements my decision to go marginally used Z06 route.
Literally fastest Mustang ever produced, at least as fast in a straight line as the most expensive Corvette you can buy.
Other than that, not that fast.
Now your talking my language.
Could probably even do a pulley, tune and gas and get into 9's with some DR's. Take off DR's, go to track and beat 1LE's. Thats a bad ass car IMO

arent torque specs for the DCT rated at like a really high GRVW, what, like 6500lbs?
As fast or faster than top Corvette in a line (enter ZR1).
Me: SOLD!!

All I can say is yay to a non carbon model for my next toy car purchase! I like it!!!!
My questions that I hope you could "guess" answers to:
1) I see there is Carbon Fiber "track pack", I'm assuming that has sport cup tires.
2) Will the carbon fiber "track pack" be production limited like the GT350R, or will anyone be able to get one like the track pack on the 13-14 GT500.
3) Will the non track pack be trackable as a 2017 track pack equipped GT350 non R is? I. e. is the GT500 carbon fiber "track pack" really a track pack you HAVE to have for HPDE use, or just a "nice to have".
4) Price for the car without the carbon fiber option.
5) Price for the carbon fiber option.
6) Quantity estimates?
