I absolutely agree, and think that Toyota is the main reason behind the laggard effort here. The mind-numbing, incomprehensible boardroom decisions that led to production of this enthusiast car, then the immediate cutoff of all support and funds, is just unreal.

You morons. You release a great enthusiast car, and then follow it up with a poorly educated dealer chain, zero updates/refreshes, no performance models, no convertible models to up your profit margin...WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! Did you think this was gonna just glide to success on its own merits? That everyone would…

Yeah sarcastic guy! Fuck that business that isn't a charity that is using thinly veiled extortion to increase the profits on their special editions by forcing customers to either up the take-rate on options or have their deposit ignored!

Proof that Karma does not exist. Otherwise, she would have taken a 57 Caddy to the dome

Am I the only one who thinks Galpin should stop ruining things? First a Ford GT, now this....

Either your airbag goes off and ventilates you with shrapnel, or it doesn't go off and your face becomes a pancake. The real life version of Death Race consequences.

Raphael, you aren't seeing the brilliance in design here. With the LF-C2 concept, the design team has incorporated all the favorite things old people know and love!

All I want for Christmas is a wallpaper of the GT350 in Black with Matte Black stripes.

Probably somewhat soft, thinner plastic. As was the Boss 302 splitter that I put on my 2012. That one held up wonderfully and kept an awesome looking front edge, and I definitely scored up the bottom on many back roads high speed dips and such.

I think we're violently agreeing

Which is why I thought it was ironic to label it 'engineering'

I worked on an Audi once. I had to cut one of my 15mm wrenches in half to loosen a nut in a tight space.

Cue attacks by both incensed Audi hipsters throwing their flat brimmed hats at the monitor and prestigious businessmen dropping their monocle in anger over your sleight which can be tangentially linked to the six figures they just dropped on a loaded A8 with a ball massager.

But that's before you add the carbon fiber cup holders and the carbon fiber monocle tray and the carbon fiber matched luggage to store you ego and the carbon fiber bound owner's manual with the single carbon fiber thread page that simple says "Mmmm yes....shallow and pedantic"

I know, I was just being facetious. Although I chuckled when they revived the King Cobra name for SEMA, given the negative connotations that era of Mustangs usually brings with it

Me neither. I thought I was watching a poorly animated bit from that garbage Need For Speed movie. Seriously, I know CGI is more convenient because of scheduling, etc...but you couldn't have just done a bunch of still shots of ONE car in the studio and then just revved it for the last bit? Aggravating.

Meanwhile no one cares because that car costs 3x as much.

Some of it I understand, given that Shelby's mood has in the past dictated the availability of many of these badge names to Ford.

You'd think so...but there was actually a comparison of Nurburgring videos of both the Z/28 and the camouflaged GT350's that were running on Pilot Super Sports. There were videos of both cars going through the carousel, filmed from the same vantage point. Clocking each car's time through just the carousel by looking…

My professional estimate is only 50 badges off of yours. So say 975 badges. Of course, this is assuming the King Cobra SEMA bullshit goes away. If it doesn't, I'd say we're looking at an easy 1200 variants
