Wow so it weighs 350lbs less and has about 100 more rwhp than a Auto ZL1, and as the man said its gone from a dragstrip car to more of a track car. Ford knocked this one outta the park!!

Looks like it goes about its business a bit too well to the point of being less exciting than less capable cars.

So now with the new LC feature it leaves great with little to no wheel spin.

One of the biggest gripes was about how the Shelby couldnt put the power down, now youre saying it does it too well and the car is no longer exciting to drive???

I find that hard to believe. Anybody with over 600hp is gonna be slammed in their seat. IMO that's gonna be fun

I sometimes think you're hyperventaling when posting this stuff about the GT500. No disrespect, but I can just imagine you gasping for air with joy lmao.

Anyways, only three reviews posted times: 12.2 @ 121 (CaD), 11.6 @ 125 (MT), and 12.3 @ 120 (R&T). Car and Driver said "less than ideal conditions." Duh lol. Need more reviews to see if that launch control is supposed to be the godsend that makes everyone run 11s as some are proclaiming it to.

Edit: apparently this car is "insane."

I expected it to dyno better but still impressive. Tuners will have a field day with it.

"It's also by far the best horsepower to dollar value out there: $81.87/HP. Compare that to a similarly-powered Ferrari 599 GTB Firoano ($539.21/HP), or the cheaper Scion FR-S ($124.65/HP). So if your goal is to save money by buying horsepower wholesale, this is absolutely your car."
