The track pack should make it a good contender in the road courses now.

I cant believe their still not offering a wider rear tire.

I don't think that has been determined yet. HP/TQ ratings on the guide are also noted as TBD. I'm sure as Job 1 gets closer, these details will be released.

BackinBlackSS/RS · 01-24-2010, 08:09 PM

Definitely a cool car.

MEDISIN · 01-24-2010, 08:13 PM

Shaping up to be a nice package indeed!

Sounds very 'unique' for some reason........

I will gladly buy one once the initial hype wears off...

Couldn't just link us to this information....

Cus we really need to be sure of the exact options that you can get in the new GT500... Cus the GT500 is so poorly portrayed here at Camaro5. We give it absolutely no respect and it's good that you mustang guys keep us honest. I'm sure the camaro is absolutely enamored at mustang sites isn't it. They love having educational posts about the Z28 don't they. Maybe I should delete any post in reference to the GT500 until you can link me to a Z28 thread started by a known camaro owner on a mustang forum....

Would that be fair....

Or are you just educating us in advance so you don't have to come in here and correct us when we are wrong about the GT500.

Again cus we need to make sure there are no incorrect posts about the GT500 don't we....

cus I'm sure the camaro watchdogs on the mustang forums are just as proactive aren't they.....

Just some random thoughts I'm having....

No doubt .. with the power it will be putting out, they need to go a bit bigger on the back end.

Thanks for the info OP.

I agree. 305s should be out back with 275s in the front at least.

I like that the aluminum block and HID's, are standard. I like the glass roof too, on the other Mustangs I've seen.
