While exact power specs have not yet been revealed, at a Ford preview event the week before the car's debut at the 2019 North American International Auto Show, chief program engineer Carl Widmann assured us that the horsepower would be north of 700. For now, that’s good enough for us. That figure helps propel the GT500 to a claimed mid-three-second sprint to 60 mph. Ford also claims a sub 11-second quarter mile, useful for ruling the strip—and making that hoser with the old GT500 eat his hat. The automaker says this is the quickest-accelerating factory Mustang ever built, with the most powerful street-legal V8 engine ever offered by Ford.

Do they have a V6 automatic with a pink racing stripe for my wife?

I feel like that actually used to be a factory stripe color option, but it looks like they only have black and white now

Went to a Ford Dealer a couple of years ago for service on one of my daughters car, they had a Shelby on the floor. MSRP was mid 60's, the dealer wanted $85000. The car was striking, from a distance. Closer inspection, and the interior, aside from the racing seats was ho-hum, and the body panels were so miss aligned, it was ridiculous. Hopefully Ford and Shelby have upgraded the production.

Hate the spoiler, but at 700+ hp, it might actually be practical.

So what changed exactly?
It looks like the same as the 2017 and 2018 Mustangs parked in front of mobile homes all over the US....although I know this version has the business under the hood.

Feel free to read even just the quote from the article, or the entire thing. This thing is going to be a beast.

Supercharged, and automatic.

Don't laugh too much. The V6 Mustang and Camaro can actually turn corners now. The Challenger is still more of a straight line car though.
The days of V6 (and in some cases V8) Mustangs being barely adequate are gone. I think Ford finally installed an independent rear suspension in the Mustang recently.

The GT350 looks better and can actually corner.

Given that the GT350 is already in the $60,000 range, we wouldn't be shocked to see the GT500's starting price hit right around $70,000.
I understand that this is the top of the line Mustang, and I'm not saying it's not a nice car, but I just can't understand why you'd buy a Mustang if you're looking to spend $70k on a car.

A 10 second car that can turn well and stop quickly with a warranty at $70k (if that's what it costs) is a relative bargain. The SVT and now Shelby cars have show to hold their value very well too.
Pickup trucks can cost this much now, so is it really that crazy that a range topping performance car can get up there?

But Ford isn’t just targeting drag times with the GT500. The automaker sees the GT500 out on tracks, dicing it up at your local HPDE events and wiping the smug look off that M3 driver’s face. "To be at today’s pinnacle of performance, [the car] has to turn" noted Jim Owens, marketing manager for the Mustang. The GT500 gets a specifically-tuned version of Ford's Magneride magnetorheological active damping system, which began as an option on the GT350 and is now available across the Mustang lineup.
It's going to be able to turn

I think that's crazy too.
I'm not saying it's not priced appropriately, there are just a lot of vehicles in that price range that I'd much rather have than a Mustang. That's simply my personal opinion, I'm not trying to say it's a shitty car or anything like that.

95k for a Ford...
My brothers 2017 GT350 already had its engine replaced after 6 months.
