I have to admit, I'm drooling over this car. I really want to trade the Demon in on one now. It just makes the Demon look so damn dated. So many old threads and so many technical threads, how about a simple share out of the TOP 3 THINGS YOU LOVE ABOUT THE GT500!!!!

1. 100ms SHIFTS - F YEAH!
2. EXPOSED CARBON WHEELS - BAD ASS
3. MENACING FRONT END - READY TO KILL CAMAROS

1. Looks of the car. I like the aggressive appearance and the wide stance. The way a car looks is often more important to me than all out performance.
2. DCT. It fits the mold of what I enjoy in a performance car. After driving a GT3 with PDK I was sold on DCT’s. Now, that’s not to say I will purchase the 2020 GT500.
3. Better tech than the 2014 Shelby I current own. For example, it is still befuddling why Ford did not incorporate rear back up camera technology into the S197 platform.

1) The looks/performance.
2) The DCT.
3) The carbon fiber package/rear seat delete.

(I'm really going to try to put one in my garage, "if" I can order it the way I want AND afford it. lol We don't know pricing yet.)

In the 427R
1. Factory boosted Coyote based engine
2. Bigass brakes (would be #1 if Carbon Ceramics)
3. Aggressive styling
I hope they’ll make a better variant aka KR with carbon ceramic brakes, more power, and better suspension, and weight reduction.


Pick your poison.

In no particular order:

1. Base appearance
2. Color choices
3.

To be Determined: Performance/Price

There are no particular 3, the entire package to me is pretty much flawless. Dgaf about the knob, just puts it in gear no reason to like it or dislike it imo

Already been on the horn to him about it. He's still holding out hope that a manual somehow shows up.

I brought up a weighted dial if this one is tissue paper light as well as brackets to raise the CF Track wing slightly higher up in the airstream....

We should drive over and take George to lunch and bombard him with off the wall ideas.

I need to stop by and visit. It's been a month or so.

Its force inducted, Its got an awesome hood, and the color pallet is A+
Other than that, I'm not crazy about it.
Quite honestly, at a 730 to 740 power level, I'll probably be out on it. I'm not superficial, I just think that I'd like a mid engine vette type car better... the higher HP version that is.

I didn't like it at first too Jim.
But as I kept looking at it and reading about it,.........I want one! lol
