So the S550 GT350 has been spied running around Ford HQ. Expected to debut in April at the NY Auto Show. GT350 is celebrating its 50th anniversary as well. Should be one mean ride...

Is the GT350 going to look much different from the regular Mustang at all? Is there going to be a different hood, or just decals and badges? Looks like there is a hood scoop hiding under that camo.

Wow they even covered the rims... Love love the quad exhaust tips

Too bad there wasn't a video.

Yeah, it's a good sign though. Sign that this is probably really close to being a production model.

I think its more about hiding the brakes than the rims... probabaly some big burly 4 piston brembos..

What engine is going to be in the GT350? Is it the V8? Maybe tuned?

I would have loved to see a video of the exhaust clip. Why didn't they record a video!!

The Rumor is its a new Ford V8 codenamed VooDoo. Some people thought it might be the 6.2 from the raptor but theres just not enough room for that hulk...

VooDoo is a derivative of the Coyote 5.0 from what I know..

So what is there to hide then? Anyone could have figured that out

I think the design of the rims is probably a secret too.

hiding some big brembo's
MAYBE some carbon ceramic brakes??????

man rims are the most insignificant thing about a car, besides the mules never wear production rims. Its about the brakes.

P.S someone spotted the 350 in LA yesterday...

Rims are the most insignificant thing, and just about anything we can easily change.
Plus my OEM wheels always get used as winter wheels

and that's just stock.
just imagine once you throw on a big straight pipe on it, your ears will thank you

 

[4bangin]

i think it sounds amazing just the way it is

can't wait to see the performance specs to see how they've improved.

almost 600 ponies natural aspiration 5.5L??

got to see the s550 for the first time this week.

it looks amazing in person. especially in the red.

If that is true, it's crazy. They must have done some crazy tuning from it to get that but I have a feeling to get that kind of power you need forced induction

 

[Newport]

the GT350 was again spotted in Downtown LA. Its interesting the guy who keeps running into the mule says hes now seen it 3 times in the last week always at 7pm, always at the corner of Flower and Wilshire.
