Agreed on the lights, love the aggressive look and stance.

I wonder how the price of this car will do against the 2011 GT500.

The new 5.0 engine packs cast pistons,


The 5.4 will be Forged everything with a light aluminum block.

The looks are amazing of this new GT350 !

If the front valance was trimmed down a bit (so it's not so low slung), the GT350's front end would be the perfect look for the new bodystyle across the board. Picture a simple tribar pony emblem in place of the 350 badge in the grill.....awesome. And the hood?.......total...bad...***. The back would still need some tweaking. Standard spaced dual exhaust just looks better, but I do like how they undid the alternating brake and backup lights. I also like the spoiler. Only thing left after that is to put some reasonable 18 or 19" rims on there with some respectable rubber to go with them.

Put it this way: if you just toned it down a bit....this Shelby would be a great new look for the Mustang overall.

If I had a 2010 or a 2011, I'd be jumping out of my shorts to buy the rear end treatment parts. I like it, but I agree that the Shelby letter should be moved from the bumber and the stripes should make the whole trip.

Price....interesting.......should be lower than the 2011 GT500 for sure.

I agree...its a bautiful car with alot of thought put into it to make it diffrent from the other newer Mustang but I think it needs to be toned down just a bit...and the hood reminds me of the Dodge Challanger (but I still like it).

Anyone noticed that on the side profile shots of the car.......there doesn't seem to be enough rubber on the rims???? I've seen plenty of S197's with 20's, and the wheels always filled out the wells better than that. The wheels actually still look small......despite having some fairly large rims on there. Someone didn't do their homework......as I'd be willing to bet that they didn't go with enough sidewall on the tires to retain the original wheel size ratio. Either that, or the bodykit is just making the car seem that more huge that even the 20's don't seem to be big enough. What do you all think?
