Since GG tax and destination are not options it basically starts at 50k And 57.5k for a loaded gt350 non r?

Now let's see some specs. The price is steep, but it's not known exactly what you're getting.

GT350 base = 47870
destination = 825
gas guzzler = 1300
add tech pack = 7500
add track pack = 6500
total = 63,995.00


I think this above is not do-able....tech pack and track pack can't go together...it's one or the other...

Awesome! Hopefully this forces GM to not get too carried away with the 6gen pricing.

Here's a fun little graphic for the different "versions" of the 350.

I'd imagine the second "R" on the last one is merely a typo.

ah good point, that mag ride is pricy.

I doubt it'll hang with the Z without it. but I wouldn't be surprised if it gives it a run for its money.

It'll be fun to watch the different comparisons, just like it always is.

...if you want to compare performance numbers, well, the GT500 retains it's title of the highest hp, worst performing car in the world.

The standard options are very impressive. When you think what a loaded SS, or ScatPack price out at, this is a bargain. The way I see it $56,195.00 will buy you a street/strip/track beast.

THIS ^^^^^^^^^

Instead of going full out like Chevy did with the Z/28 Ford is letting you piece together what you want.

I can already see the argument here tho, If the R performs better than the Z "well all that stuff is standard on the Z you have to add options to the R to get it on the same level."

So the Z/28 slayer is also much cheaper. Impressive Ford.

Correct. On a GT350 (non-R) you cannot combine those 2 options... you have to choose one or the other therefore Tech Pkg OR Track, but not both together.



I'm shooting to order with just the Track Pkg. & Black Roof options... in either Avalanche Gray or Race Red. Decisions, decisions...

Ford is probably working on an auto version as well.
Rapidly catching up to what? Yes, an automatic might provide you with a quicker/more consistent lap times, but it will never provide you with the same feeling you get when rowing through the gears on your own.
