Nice find... I'll take one. 80K... maybe not.

 

bring on the spy pictures!!!

 

Yawn.... 80k for a Mustang? Give me a break... nice racer, but useless to the common man.

 

Same with every previous R Model (and I still haven't forgiven Ford for making the 351 only available in the 95 R model )

 

So the "Grand Am spec" vehicle is $129K. Essentially they are just slapping a different name on the FR500C that retails for the same price?

And the 80K version is essentially a 5.0L FR500S?

Sound like some badass rides, don't get me wrong--but is this all just re-branding?

 

coyote engine - 400 hp - 6 speed = cool
the street version will be less $$$

 

I hope this doesn't mean the 2011 GT 5.0L will have less horsepower than expected.

 

probably exactly what it means if the race ready version of the 5.0 has 400ish the 2011 will probably be less.

 

How do we know it's a 5.0L Coyote and not the 5.0L Cammer that's been used before?

 

Oh, and by the way, this 2010 Boss 302R wont be built until well after 2011 Mustang production has begun.

 

FR500S has 325 hp

bullitt had 315
i don't think we need to worry on this they can always raise the hp on the race version when it's out
anyway be happy 75 more hp from the new engine

 

That's funny
