The 2011 GT has a curb weight of around 3600 lb, but we'll say 3650 with options. Estimates put the RWHP at around 350 with an automatic transmission.

Figure the new GT will run from 0-60 in 4.4-4.5 seconds and run the 1/4 in 12.7-12.9 bone stock.
So the new GT has 12 more hp than an L99 but is going to put 20-30 more to the ground?
