2016 GT350 revealed. And its everything we've wanted!
http://www.caranddriver.com/news/201...-and-info-news
Check it out fellas but here's a quick rundown
flat plane V8 that pushing beyond 500 HP. Ford said it's the most powerful NA V8 they have ever produced
fully adjustable Magnetic shocks!!!!!! Nuff said
Bodywork is all about Aero first with lightweight carbon parts
Nice creature comfort features like optional leather and dual climate
Tremec 6 Speed!!!!!
10.5 front wheels and 11 inch back with 15.5 6 piston front and 15 inch 4 piston rear brakes. Yes!!!!
This should be around $50k since they confirmed that they are still creating a GT500.
I know some of yall hate the looks. But give props on these specs. This thing has shit that we have been begging for in a Stang

I don't care for the placement & spacing of the stripes for that matter... but I do like the design.

I'm on the fence. That is one expensive Mustang. Minimum $50k, plus ADM and interest. Yeesh. $70-80k for a Mustang is hard to swallow, especially when there are so many cars out there that will perform circles around a 500hp Stang. It's understandable if you a bleed Ford blue, diehard Mustang guy, but if you are about getting the most performance for your money regardless of make/model, there are better options out there.

This thing will be around $50-55k which puts it perfectly in between a GT and GT500. It's a bargain at that price point. And that's fact. There's nothing else on the market that I would rather have with those specs, 4 seats, and that price point

It might be a year from release if there is any left. But not at first. I'm guessing it will be 55-60k plus a 10-20k ADM depending on the dealership. Add taxes and interest and that car is much more expensive than you think it is. Even IF you find a dealership doing no ADM, 60k plus taxes and interest is still very expensive for a 500hp car.
I mean, it's cool and all if you are a diehard Mustang or nothing guy. But if you are looking for the most performance for your dollar the GT350 isn't the most return for your money you can find.
But like everything, it's all hype. People want the latest and greatest thing. Before this it was the Hellcat, give it a few more months and the next thing will come along.
What matters is if you think the GT350 is worth it to you for that amount of money, go for it. To me, it's WAY too much money for a Mustang. If you get one, pencil me in for a race, can't wait to smoke one.

That whole "I aint paying that much for a Mustang" line has gotten old. They aren't the same machines as back in the day. They have become world class vehicles in certain aspects. My purchase will be within late 2016 early 2017. Everything will be on the market for at least a yr and that markup should be gone for most performance cars.

World class....lmfao.
Well, if that's what you want, more power to ya. Late 2016 - early 17 a lot can and will happen between now and then. At least that will give you time to see what issues these cars will have as all first year run cars do. Should be interesting to see what they can do once the hype dies down.

If it is 50k, I will trade my boss in or sell it and throw that down as a down payment.

Is it cool? Yes. Would I pay that price for it? No. I also wouldn't pay the price for a z/28 either

I really like it. Depending on the price and if I can get the deal my dealer said they would do I'll be getting one. My 15 moved into production this week. But my dealer is keeping it on order so I have options if the GT350 is stupid expensive.
