[QUOTE="tt335ci03cobra, post: 16135317, member: 68944"] About 4250lbs is the sepeculations at present time. My cobra was heavy in 03 at 3620lbs. I honestly never thought the mustangs would break 4000lbs but obviously they have. That said, 4000lbs today is much better managed from magnetic shocks to geometry and compliance. If you take a 1993 foxbody and find a way to hit 4000lbs with it, it would be horrible to drive. I imagine the 2020 gt500 will feel like a 3250lbs car. Gt350r’s feel very light almost like a 2750lbs car. That all said, go drive a 2500lbs car like an s2000. They are incredibly fun and tactile but at high speed they are sketch—————E. Even my 03 cobra with full handling suspension, Brembos etc is sketchy at 150+ for a car with so much done to it. Then you drive a c5 z06 at 190 and it’s calm enough to crack a coke and nibble on a burger. Total package engineering from aero to suspension and chassis is critical as weight rises but honestly a heavier car can feel much easier to drive at high speed. Miata at 150 is ass puckering.
