BingoBesides, if the S650 gets a special edition straight away I would be happy but I doubt it. It'll take at least until christmas or 2024 before we get a Boss. In addition, I don't think it will be another Mach 1 or Bullit. We had those.
My guess: No Shelby 350 but a fully loaded hybrid Boss.
What if it isn't a mach-1, but rather, the normal gt, maybe with a performance pack? When the mach-1 was revealed a few years ago, I had a feeling that it was essentially a mechanical precursor to the next gen gt. In that the next gen gt would get the tremec 6-speed, the same 5.0, and most of the same suspension bits as the mach-1. Looks like I may have been right.Why should that be a Mach 1? I highly doubt we will see special model in the firts model year. They always keep those models for later years so early adopters have a reason to upgarde
Would make sense, a boss with a hybrid system could easily make 550-600 hp, making it an excellent gt350 replacement providing they can nail the handling and keep the weight down. I've heard the voodoo won't be making a return, but the predator probably will, which is interesting. Imagine a halo mustang with the gt500's engine and a hybrid system, along with things like active areo and some composite components to reduce weight. That would be an awesome car to send off the last ICE mustang with.Besides, if the S650 gets a special edition straight away I would be happy but I doubt it.

They did take the S197 Boss as a benchmark for the S550 GT (PP) and it turned out well. If the S650 GT drives as good as the Mach 1 and has all the upsides of a refreshed car I would absolutely consider it. Especially as a convertible.What if it isn't a mach-1, but rather, the normal gt, maybe with a performance pack?

doesn't that nullify/neuter/remove all performance pretenses and capabilities of the chassis?Especially as a convertible.
Those big ass tires, quad tipped exhaust, and what appears to be a camouflaged chin spoiler would typically be indicative of a performance trim of some sort....There is absolutely NOTHING in that photo to suggest 'mach 1' - barely that it might be a performance trim of some kind.
