2012's have plummeted in price, thanks to a) the 2013 redesign and b) the 2015 overhaul.
In the process of buying a 2012 GT/CS 6m for peanuts.

The '13-'14s were what the '10 - '12s should have looked like from the start. I especially hated the tail lights when the prototypes for the 2010 were seen testing with less camo.

I like the '12s better. *shrug* The current cars look too truck-like in the nose, they have a stupid hood bumper like the Focus and new WRX and the tails are too busy.

We all know the 5.0 is capable of it. I sure hope Ford didn't wuss out and put a supercharger on it. |

An NA American V-8 with 100 hp/liter will shut a lot of ricers up.

If the GT350 is the 5.2 liter NA "Voodoo" motor that Ford has been testing, yes ... this is going to be one seriously cool car. High-revving and quick revving like a Ferrari motor.

The GT350 should be a Boss 302 replacement, not a GT500 replacement. I hope Ford is smart enough to realize that and didn't get caught up in the same "Supercharge ALL the things!" fever GM and Dodge have become caught up in. After the disappointment that is the new ZR1 Z06, it would be refreshing to see someone make something proper rather than just throwing horsepower and model numbers where they don't belong.

Regardless, it's a bit too early to start calling the Z06 a disappointment. |

The new GT350 will have a 5.2L. It's pretty much all but officially confirmed now. Unfortunately that's about as far as the info goes though in regards to the engine.

So, anyone know when the mags are going to publish reviews now that the production facility is cranking? They should have their test vehicles by now, no?

Because the Z06 was the NA model and the ZR1 was the supercharged model. How do you think enthusiasts would view the 911 GT3 if they took out the high revving motor for a turbocharged one? It basically becomes the 911 GT2... not a terrible thing, but it becomes a different model, pretty much.

Because boring a small block V8 out to seven freaking liters was the pinnacle of ninja-like subtlety. And the new Generation V engines have had no technological advancement from the old engines. I know we like to clown on GM cars around here, but you're gonna have to do better than that.

In the development they tested a three valve pushrod engine which could have easily been further improved for the C7. They went with the two valve LS7 because they got the power they wanted without going with the more complex valve train. The LT4 is an LT1 with a blower on it. BOOOOORING. |

Sorry, can't hear you over the sound of your rustbucket decomposing without a replacement on the horizon...
