I will admit that is a bad ass car. Impressed to see 50/50 balance without going mid-engine like C8. I am surprised to see the 5.2 back...I hope that carries into a GT500 at a more reasonable price...I will be very interested. Hope some rich person near me buys one so I can see it at our Cars and Coffee...this thing is every bit on par with or exceeds Porsche/Ferrari/lambo.

300k is code for 500K
It’s a new paradigm.

and I’ll gladly bet the S650 GT500 will be 150K minimum for a base and everyone will be paying 200 plus like the Z06.

We finally get to see the mythical 808hp Supercharged Direct Injected V8 that was supposed to be out in 2019…

this is 100% this generations GT, only difference is its not a mid-engine ecoboost

It is not just the horsepower. If it was horsepower we would have a 60k, 700+, rental spec car. *cough dodge* This is about handling too

Looks like an s650 with a bunch of stuff glued on, horrible design in my opinion.

For sure. No point in having power if you cannot use it within reason.

Well...I'm a HUGE fan of this. The closest I'll ever get to this is in a video game, unfortunately...but damn, what a cool car. I feel like this is a "you either get it - or you don't" type of car.

EDIT: We also have to remember, NO ONE is doing this kind of thing in this modern era right now. Homologation specials back in the day were the bees knees...to see something like this now, is pretty crazy.

This looks like a fun car.

I would drive this.

Simply put, if this ditched the mega-gigangto wing and bougie tech and had a retail starting price of $79,000+, the forum and car community would be going absolutely berserk

Idk why but this shit honestly infuriates me

I think the frustrating thing is Ford's latest strategy is fuck competition, we'll do whatever we want and charge whatever we want. That's a good strategy in a vacuum, but in the real world, most of us are saying "Yeah, this is a badass car, but unless they depreciate massively, I'll never be able to afford one".

Meanwhile, the c8 can be had for like 70 grand, 120 or so for a 670 hp mid engine supercar. It gives you hope because 70 grand is a lot of money, but it's also in that bracket of "If I save up here and there, I could maybe buy this one day". This is a bitchin' car, but it's also kinda depressing to see multimillionaire Jim Farley with multimillionaire Bill Ford talking about how great this car you'll never be able to afford is.

I don't understand how Ford can justify a business case to do a ground up 300k supercar they'll only sell in a few thousand units. But can't seem to put together a business case for a mid-engine mustang priced like a c8. If Ford made a 80 grand mid-engine 500 hp car, it would blow everyone's hair back, truly elevating the mustang while also staying true to the mustangs roots of offering great performance for a reasonable price. But instead, they're basically like, hey fuck you if you aren't super wealthy.
