Detroit Autoshow GT500 pics and some official info *56k die*

[generalchaos]

Not sure if any of these pics/info have been posted so im going to do it.

I asked the guy by the display about some stuff and he know the answers, I didnt ask everything I could but here are some things people were wanting to know.

Forged Crank
Titanium connecting rods
forged pistons
aluminum forged head
iron block
twin screw supercharger ad 8.8lbs (I beleive he said 8.8)
axel instead of IRS
Hardtop costs around 40k full loaded, before dealer markup
convertible costs around 45k
Says its rated at 475 but he claims I could take it home and dyno 520rwhp
I forgot to ask what it weighs.

Cliff notes: This car is a BAD MOTHER****** for the price. I want one so bad now.


For some reason the cam didnt take a picture of the front end like I thought it did, and thats the best part of the car IMO so im mad. Lighting was harsh and camera wasnt so great but whatever.

And what youve been waiting for: The pics

If someone went there and get more/better pics post em!

520RWHP means nothing when its moving 4100 Pounds with a driver and full tank of gas.

NOTHING? You've got to be kidding! :burn:

Twin Screw?

[Milstang]

Yea, the twin screw caught my attention as well. And 520 is more than respectful...

Everytime I have talked to an SVT person they have said 475 conservatively, so 520 is not too hard to believe.

Thanks for the pictures and asking the questions about the internals.

:thumbsup:

475 was always a number at the crank. If we are to believe the 520rwhp than the engine has to make almost 600hp. I think someone has the facts confused..

 

[DBK]

The 475 crank number is very conservative. 520rwhp is a crackhead number. Twin screw :dw:

Looked really good in white/blue. Not crazy about the de-striped vert.

 

[Yates...Man]

Titanium conct. rods. the guy must have been confused with the vette??

 

[VirtualSVT]

Was he the guy giving the little talk about the car? They are paid models. They don't know shit.

Doesn't your piece of shit come with 120 hp?

So do you drive a sunqueer or a cavaqueer?

The "Model" that mentioned the car stats (twin screw) was pulling them out of his a$$. They are about as educated on these cars as a cigar store indian. He needed to study his script a little more before show time!:rollseyes

exactly everyone has known for the last 6 months that its a roots blower. just goes to show you that the guy didn't know chit.

 

[generalchaos]

hehe hey dont yell at me im just the messenger! Either way if its not a twin screw and doesnt have titanium rods or any of that its still a badass car, especially for 40k.

Also LR 01 Cobra thats a lot of info, only thing I can say is the little computer monitor thing by it (that really had no info on it) said it was using the tremec t-56 trans, but you list the 6060 (unless they are the same thing)

Cant wait till these are out so we know for sure.
