Go back to a Dodge forum. lol
The GT500 will not outrun a Demon in the quarter, no one in their right mind believes that.
But I hope it does.. and I hope it blows OP's fender flares off

I also think this statement is going to come back to bite them: "Venom Kills Demons".
No shit? There was an entire thread with this title, started by you.

If only Ford had Kaneda on its marketing team.
Always.
In reality, Ford's garnered a ton of attention for the new GT500, without having to say much.
The less people know; the more speculation articles are written, more threads in online forums are started, the constant checking to see if any announcement has been made, etc.
It's doing a hell of a good job.
This dude's a troll. Comes in, drops one post and then poof after he's stirred the pot up.
and on a VERY low budget...better they put their money into R&D...it is kinda like trolling the public- they toss a teaser out there and then sit back and watch people make comments, get hyped, etc. then when it dies down they will throw something else out there. might not be a bad approach honestly.
And what would be wrong with being a Ford fan boy?Your so wrong I don't even know where to start. Only a Ford fan boy would make a statement like this.

Here's my take on this. IMO the Mustang base is a diehard and loyal group. They're willing to wait for the car to show up. Not everyone of course, but most. A different mind-set. So when the GT-500 does hit the showrooms, there will be no big need to market the car to the populace. Those who want it....will buy it. They're already planning. Already know it's coming. A car commercial isn't going to sway them. Same as those who wanted the GT-350 bought it. It surely wasn't marketed on TV. I think Ford knows how we think. Again, JMO.
Run any 9's yet?!?!?!I just don't get how Ford is handling the launch of the GT500. Nothing about it makes any sense. The most powerful Mustang ever is upon us and the best they can do is a crappy teaser that is followed up by nothing at NY Autoshow?
Part of what puts a car into culture is the marketing around it. Look how well Dodge marketed the Demon. They went ALL-IN on making it a car that was talked about not just on Autosites or amongst car enthusiasts, but heck even Good Morning America was talking about it. And they let fans know exactly when it would be revealed and orchestrated a brilliant roll-out of videos to build the hype. What has Ford done?
I just get the feeling Ford has no real plan to launch this car with any fanfare or excitement. It feels a lot like the launch of the Camaro ZL1 1LE. Amazing car...but they just dropped it into the world with no marketing what-so-ever.
I also think this statement is going to come back to bite them: "Venom Kills Demons". I just put race fuel in my Demon and the thing Dyno's 779whp. Yes, to the wheels. It's crazy what 100 octane can do when the car is calibrated for that. There's just no way the GT500 is going to come close to high-octane Demon power and absolutely no way it's going to "KILL" a Demon on anything other than a road course (which nobody cares about). Again, it's marketing that matters. Popping wheelies, fasted 1/4 mile production car ever...that's what stirs the souls of enthusiasts, not some lap time.
It's sad to see Dodge pave the way for how you launch an exciting car and then Ford can't even follow in those footsteps. I'm convinced they are stalling. It's like they know the car is going to come out and not Dethrone the Demon or ZR1. What gives?

Why resurrect the GT500 for the second time, why not call the new car GT750?
