"In addition to the engine modifications, the GT500 has a new carbon-fiber driveshaft, stronger clutch, and new transmission. To keep that power in check, the car has enlarged Brembo brakes with six-piston front calipers, as well as an electronic launch control function. A redesigned front fascia and splitter help cope with the rush of air at 200 mph, and also improve overall downforce by as much as 47 percent."

carbon fiber driveshaft? holy ****in shit!
6 piston brembos? yes! launch control? yes! more downforce? yes!
"new" transmission? bet it's just an updated TR-6060. nothing wrong with that, but "new" is misleading. though, i could be wrong...

"That package can be supplemented with the Track package, which includes additional coolers for engine oil, the rear differential, and the transmission oil."
suck it GM!

Great news night for Ford! Poor ZL1 already got beat before it made it to production lol

Great news from Ford!!!! From 9 pounds of boost to 15 pounds and 7000 rpm redline. Piston squirters, bigger injectors. They say nothing about the rods yet but they have to be stronger than the powered rods now!!! What size rear tires? Love the rear taillights. Not sure about the quad tips yet need to see a better pic or in person!!!! Sounds like Ford has done a great job with the 2013 GT500!!!!!!!!!!

I now have a 2011 GT500 for sale. Only driven by old ladies to church on Sunday!

Jake how much you want for it? LOL. Was just about to share this, awesome news!

dammit. maybe i need to take another trip over here to fund such a car. eh who am i joking. that just ain't going to happen.

For Sale:

2011 GT500. Black w/flat black stripes...

yea, BHI is trying to re-instate their travel pay. Got 6 international trips planned this year and we used to get paid $250 a day in addition to our normal salary for international travel ($500 a day if going to hazard areas).

They stopped it last year when we did the BH1 merger (took the 8 small companies and made one conglomerate) and now they are trying to get it back.

Thinking about upping the life insurance policy...

And this has what to do with the new GT500?


(Also... moved to News and Articles)

Bob jokingly said he was considering another tour to fund this. If I got travel pay I could too, LOL

That is a stupid amount of power, and it has a warranty. It had better not cost $70,000. Loaded out should still be sub $60,000 right?

In a perfect world it would

I love the quad exhaust.

LOL, I didn't even notice that!

Track apps, quad exhaust and launch control, you think team SVT has the GTR in its cross hairs?

hmm all it needs is AWD

Umm no, RWD and lifting the front tires on a muscle car will never leave the market. AWD is for family cars, tuners, and Euro cars. RWD muscle is as american as baseball

On a side note: Rearend of the new shelby.

I still love the quad exhaust.... Or maybe I just like say quad.

Not in love with the lights. Hopefully they will blend more with a darker color.

I am just wondering if they are going to install a third break light or leave that cavity open. Just looks like the picture was taken before they finished.

looks like they are about to catch up to the zr1 that is 2 years old.

didn't realize that...

The lights remind me of the 2011 GT350...

And the AWD reference was one of the few things keeping it from being like a GT-R... no worries big guy...

Baseball is bigger in Japan though...

Camaro? Corvette? Nah, we are going Lambo hunting!

I support this vehicle.

Greatest thing ever

"Talking to other journalists at the live reveal last night, we were all befuddled as to why Ford is sticking with the GT500 name. "GT Fuck You" seemed to be the popular alternative."
