They all should have had the cooling without having to option it out, but they obviously wouldn't have been able to hit that price point all the Ford fanboys were bragging about.
GT500 also needed a track package. Mustang GT is also gimped from the factory. Just seems to be the way Ford does things. I still don't think that this lawsuit will accomplish anything for these people.
I recall when the blue oval boys talked about how the 1LE would cost as much as GT350 and not be as good.. 1LE costs 14k dollars less. That's huge. Besides the unique engine, the GT350 sounds like a ripoff.

Yeah The base 350 was made purely for grabbing that sub 50K MSRP which as we know now backfired. I don't think the lawsuit has a chance, as DGthe3 pointed out, the put it pretty clear in the owners manual that the base cars needed cooling for track use. Yeah it sucks, but I don't think this case has a chance.
