2019 Mustang Shelby GT500
- Thread starter Tight Lines
- Start date
I've read both hybrid and electric. Ford is just teasing us right now. I also read the Mach 1 may be an SUV.
Ford is so far behind everybody else when it comes to electric hybrid I seriously doubt it. And I would never trust a ford electric hybrid as compared to say a GM who have mountains of data with the voltec program
They will buy the tech from someone else. I highly doubt even this Mach 1 whatever system will be developed by Ford.
Wait a minute, discussing hybrid technology in a 2019 GT500 thread?
Good Lord this thread has been derailed.
That video looks like a fan film. Not something from Ford.
"700+ HP Horsepower numbers projected"
Kinda what I thought too.... Figure I'll wait for something official from Ford before making any judgements.
Welp so much for GT350 prices dropping if thats it the GT350 will be going UP in value.

Could keep what you have or pick up a Boss 302. Not sure the GT350 performance is worth the extra coin.
There is no question the Boss was a good car. Especially since Ford had always been behind other cars in the segment when it came to braking and handling. If you could pick one up cheap it wouldn't be a bad buy at all. But it isn't going to be as good as a GT350. Same pro driver, same track, on the same day and the GT350 is going to have better lap times. Magazines were getting quicker time with the 2017 GT track pack than the Boss. Newer chassis, new suspension, more power, and so on. The newer cars have more going for them. The main advantage to the S197 chassis is the raw feeling the car gives you. It is a blast to drive. But the solid axle can make it tough to stay planted on a rough road course. The bumps coming into the turn at the Autobahn upset my 2011 GT a lot. So much so that I had to change my line dramatically to not have the car feel like the rear end was going to pass the front end
If a Boss is in your budget, you like the looks and want a fun car to drive, don't hesitate to buy one. I have no doubt you will enjoy it. Especially when you see how much you saved over buying a GT350 lol
I am interested to see how the GT500, or whatever it gets called, handles on the streets and road course. Will it be more stop light to stop light bruiser or more road course capable than any GT500 before it.
