Does anyone actually know how much fast the GT350R is compared to the GT350TP and the base GT350? I remember a graphic released by GM that showed the Z28 was about 5 seconds faster than the 1LE. Which means the 2016 1LE will be roughly 3 seconds slower than a GT350R...you know, depending on...

If I'm not mistaken, Ford has been doing BIW's since atleast the New Edges.

I'm just trying to come up with places to throw our turbo V8!

Turbo V8 for Raptor, special edition Bronco, and special edition Ranger?!?! :)

The new Camaro does have three radiators, correct?

I really wish we could cut the size of the car down.

You could say the same about $60k high horsepower cars, but they keep churning them out. Again, I'm not saying they'll make GT350's forever...as cool as it is. But it would be nice if I could option out a GT a little more track focused than the Performance Pack if they do kill the GT350 off...

Edit...

I wouldn't even have to say they would have to be profitable if they were doing like a batch of 200 or 300 of a special car, as long as they weren't losing a lot of money. But 99.9% of the time yes, they have to be profitable. Yes, I loved the Mach when they first came out, but I couldn't...

Hmm, I'll have to dig around on that, I thought it was always "about 5k (units)" that was the goal. Like I said earlier, the Mach was a parts bin car, so it was probably easier to up production.

I think my original statement was that if they don't keep making them, that they have something to replace it with be it another Boss or just a better GTPP. Outside of that, I've just stated that the GT350R is the best handling and fastest lap timing Mustang Ford has made and that Ford does...

I agree it was always a planned two year run...of a total of about 10k units combined. But they ended up making quite a few more than that because they were so popular to begin with. The segments are totally different. But if Ford decided to kill the GT350, they won't have a car in that...

I know this is the GT350 forum, but I think Ford would be good to give us a Performance Pack geared toward straight line speed with short gearing, a softer tire, maybe a Boss like intake, and free flowing exhaust as possible (catback) and on the flip side give us a Track Pack with the GT350 TP...

This. There were two Boss 302's that set on my local lot for a bit and then one set for a few months before it was sold and both were below MSRP (I don't remember how much). I will say there isn't a huge market for the GT350, but it is definitely larger than for the Boss. Don't get me...

No doubt on that. After a twenty minute session in the Boss you'll probably be ready for the next 20. In the GT500 you'll be ready for lunch and a nap...then the next 20.

Me too. If they continue to make it, good! If not, I hope they have something to take it's place. I would definitely buy a Boss or GT350 or a better GTPP over a GT500 or such when that time comes.

Nope. If seen a couple sources pit the Boss and the GT500 against each other and in all three cases the GT500 finished first. I've also read a review were the Boss and ZL1 went head to head and the ZL1 was almost two seconds faster on a minute and a half course...and every review I've seen...

If I remember correctly the 2003 Mach 1 was supposed to be limited to 5k units, but it was such a large success initially that they ramped up production midway through 2003 and were producing a bunch in 2004 before they realized they had cooled off. I think they ended up producing something...

And they are phasing the LS7 out because it can't meet future emissions, correct?

So, the Z28 did become worse and the ZL1 did get better...just the ZL1 didn't overcome the Z28.
