As someone who didn't like the look of the S650 leaks, I actually dig this. Much more than the GT and Darkhorse actually.

This to me looks MUCH better than what we got.

OP....your title says GT350 but what you posted is GT500 so which is it?

Thanks for catching that

LOL, they just slapped S550 features on a S650 GT. I think we'll get better than that. Considering each trim level so far has completely unique front bumpers.

Came here to say this. They just added mesh grilles and S550 GT500 wheels, sideskirts and spoiler and some vents. They didn't even added the more aggressive Dark Horse diffusor. The S650 will obviously look way more menacing and having a completely unique look instead of the GT frontend.

So no hybrid and no awd. Not sure how this thing is gonna 1 up the current gt500. Unless they develop a whole new engine I don’t see this thing being very exciting.

Even then, with it already over 760hp how much more can they add before its just pointless other than bragging rights and burn outs? It already has issue putting the power down.

Maybe All wheel steering? or focus purely on handling and weight loss to make better use of the power it has now.

The stripes look way too out of place.

The lack of trademark GT500 grill from S550 makes this lackluster.

 

[9secondko]

Nah. It won’t look anything like that.

that’s an easy render for motor trend. The GT500 or Cobra will have a distinct front and possibly change the sides a bit.

Do not Like the rear one bit!

Looks really timid and featureless,
Looks like a gt with stripes+ medium spoiler, which the s550 gt500 essentially is, but the s550 one looks meaner and special

God, I hope that never happens to the mustang. AWS has always been one of those "cool" features for commuter cars but rarely is it received well in performance cars. I always think of cars like the Z32 300zx where every single owner does a HICAS-delete immediately.

Its usually more due to the durability and cost of repairing it. Thats why its common to eliminate on the R32-34 GT-R as well, but its not that it doesn't help in actual racing, its just about how much it adds more complication than its worth unless you're doing hard core racing.

Chris Stevens created a render that used a "GT500-like" front bumper.......
