I agree with everything you said, especially we don’t have much info to go off of. But I will say with the GTD, Ford expanded what a Mustang could be and it’s almost as if the Shelby name pigeon holes them in a way… can’t really explain it.

R eally Dark Horse? 😂

Most of these people have to be trolling because there’s no way. 😂

They just said it’s coming in 2025 and that’s pretty much it.

I think AWD as a special variant on a new chassis would be interesting, but on the S650 it doesn’t sound exciting. I would imagine it being compromised and crazy heavy.

Shelby American owns it all I believe but they license things out to Ford. 2nd generation Shelby GT350 (2011) was in fact a modified 5.0 GT from Shelby American for example, which is the same ethos for the original cars. Just weird now because the Ford Performance cars are so good.

Naw

Yeah they’re not remotely the same. Lol.

A factory Mad Max car 😂

With Jim Farley being a former Toyota employee, I figured he would’ve had some connections to some Toyota engineers to help with quality and improve the manufacturing process. Kinda like what Porsche did in the 90s. It is a huge leap financially of course but like you were saying, long term you...

That’s my bad it was a question really. I’m actually curious on how you tackle something like that.

I guess the question would be how do you fix the quality and where do you start after the whole strike.

Ford Authority is running with it. 😂

Isn’t the Cobra name just a way of using Shelby without using Shelby if ya know what I mean? 😂

That’s the crazy part to me when I was doing some comparisons. Shelby’s base GT is at the same price level as the ford performance cars. Look at any comment section and those who aren’t in the know think the Shelby American cars are “fake” now compared to their FP counterparts which is a weird...

That’s true but then again the GT350 still has a unique engine and transmission. That’s why I didn’t say make the grill or wheels unavailable or something like that, I was talking more about certain performance upgrades.

I like them all for their own reasons. My older brother absolutely loves Saleen since that was the guy in the late 80s and throughout the 90s. Just to set the record straight to anyone thinking I’m hating, I love RTR. Original argument is I don’t think Vaughn is like Carroll Shelby. Lmao.

That would be cool too. Jim Farley posted the teaser on his ig again and it has a little different rear bumper you can see, although it’s still a rendered photo 😂

Yeah I understand that, it’s similar to what Saleen and others do just doesn’t make it stand out in my opinion. That’s true but it’s not like you can’t tell it’s a knockoff/bootleg car though. Lol. It’s a similar issue I see with Shelby American too since that Super Snake released, but...

Like I said I like RTR for the most part. Seeing Vaughn drift/drive with normal people at events, being relatable, getting big names in different worlds to drive cars with his badge on it etc, really work in his favor. I just think he walks in his own lane. Only big complaint I have is he makes...
