my only gripe with it is the bumper looks to big (not THAT big of a deal, no pun intended) other than that this car is utter sex. oh wait.. its also 60k.

The car is gay. just fucking gay. Looks like A 3m sticky tape body kit over the original bumper in an upgrade package that costs $30+K? Kiss my fucking ass. In high res shots you can spot out gaps in that "stick on" chin.

I love shelby's of yore and have mad respect for what this man has done in the past, but his company has grown into some over hyped monster that the masses bow down to graciously eat the corn nibblets out the old man's shit.
Fuck this car.

I was really hoping for a "less is more" (like the original gt350) approach instead of this hot wheels crap.

Whats the point of a GT350 if the base gt has 412hp ? Normaly those gt# ratings are based on the power output.

I couldn't agree more. I couldn't be bothered to even take a close look at the details after seeing how bad it looked (only thing I kind of like is the grille), but if I'm not mistaken, it will cost more than the GT500, be slower than the GT500, be uglier than the GT500...I really had high hopes for this for some odd reason, but it's 110% epic fail.

Yep the GT500 > GT350. Costs a lot less, well suited engine for boost, and looks better. I do like the GT350, but not enough to pay 63K when it's pretty obvious it's not worth that price.

Nope. On the original GT350..Carroll and the engine shop manager were staring at the first GT350 to roll off their line and asked, "Well...what the hell do we call it?" Then he asked how far it was from the main showroom to the engine shop. "About 350 feet, sir." Carroll stated, "Then we call it the GT350."

^^^ +1

it was just a coincidence the 07-09 GT500 had 500hp, the 2010 GT500 is not called GT540 ...

Good to know, on that note new GT350 $ = fail.

Nowadays most people associate that ford ponycar numbers with the hp. The avergae person thinks GT500 is 500hp, roush 427 (427 hp) the 3v's ive seen(at the dealer) with the GT300 decals on the side, etc.

I'm sure it will perform well and much better than the base GT is was built from. But for the price, C6 Z06 FTW. I hate saying that since I like mustangs more than anything, but it is what it is.

For the price have a C6... nope, I'll take the GT350 and have something practically no one else will have.
