If the GT350 has an IRS.....wow. But, I kinda doubt it. Production numbers wouldn't be enough to make it anywhere near a dollar figure I could entertain.
mmm... so is thing going to be a ford factory product or just a tuner SE?

Love this quote from Amy (Boylan - Shelby American President)

She says if because this was before the car was offically announced.....
"A GT350.... If we did one, it would be on the new Ford Mustang. It would have balanced performance and power. Since its the 45th anniversary, the timing is great for calendar 2010. It would have a major Body redo,front and back, retro but modern, but with that un-mistaken look of a Shelby. I would think it would be our most designed and engineered car yet. It would not be cheap, because of all the body tooling but will not be as high as SS or KR.....
Now a new GT350, could be a perfect car to honor Jerry Titus, maybe a meatball package, with his name, you could put it on or leave it off....
Still IF there was a Gt350, it would have to be worthy of it's name, heritage and namesake first and foremost. And I am sure IF we did one, not everyone would like it, some would have changes, but most will really love it and it would have to be White with Blue stripes...... ah to dream ....

I bet if it has a IRS either derived from, or exactly like that one in the pic, it will "add significantly to the cost". Given the expected ridiculous pricing a 45th anniversary GT 350 will fetch, I hope this isn't the case. Don't need any more ammo for the SRA proponents. That and the unique exterior components(?), plus the "magic" S-H-E-L-B-Y letters don't = accessible or affordable for most mere mortal buyers. Same as it was 45 years ago since they weren't exactly "cheap" back then either. Let's see just how much these will go for...

So it sounds it might be priced similarly to the GT-500 + $10k or so.
