Performance-wise looks similar to the SGT, but with 3:73 gears and better brakes. I bet the sports tuned suspension is not as stiff as the FRPP version on the SGT.
Well at least it will have a modest performance gain over the stock GT; and with the 3:73s, it will probably out accelerate the SGT and still cost $1000s less.
Looks like a nice package.

There's a lot of potential here. You can get a green one because your a bullitt fan. Or get a black one and you would have a gt with better suspension and brakes to mod with a blow and your own body mods.

Awesome, we finally have the official specs! Now we just need pictures!!! After all the speculation, it looks like a decent package to me. I am hoping Kevin will have some of these parts to add to our Mustangs. I might be interested in these:
• Performance Friction Carbon Metallic® front brake pads
— Provides superior braking & pedal feel
— Extended wear, improved fade resistance
— Reduced noise & lower dusting
• Sport Tuned Suspension (shocks/springs/stabilizer bar)
• Dark Grey Brake Calipers
• New Upper Grille w/o Fog Lamps or Pony Badge
• Unique IP Finish (gunmetal engine turn pattern)
-- Probably too expensive to retrofit, but I am curious to see what it looks like.

Another thought is that many of these parts should be included on the Shelby GT if Ford/Shelby continue to build the SGT for MY 2008 Job 2. Ford now has the parts and can install them on the assembly line. It would make for a better Shelby GT and I would guess save money installing these items on the line.
• Ford Racing Power Pack (cold air induction system)
• High Performance Calibration
• Performance Friction Carbon Metallic® front brake pads
• Ford Racing Strut Tower Brace
• Sport Tuned Suspension (shocks/springs/stabilizer bar)
--Depends on how similar it is to the SGT
• 3.73:1 Limited Slip Rear Axle
• Dark Grey Brake Calipers
• 3 ½" Packed Exhaust Tips
-- if they are the GTA's
• New Upper Grille w/o Fog Lamps or Pony Badge
-- Certainly a better starting point for installing the Shelby GT grill insert, I am guessing it would not need to be hacked up nearly as much.

Look on page 2 (Major Product Changes). Under Exterior Color Changes, it says they are adding Highland Green and deleting Windveil Blue. Dropping one color and adding another seems like a replacement to me.

The 1968, 1969 & 1970 Shelby Mustangs were built in MI by A.O. Smith Co. (not Ford).
The reason is, as you said, to save $$ and because Shelby wanted out because he thought performance cars were dead. Shelby sold the Cobra name to Ford because he thought it was nearly worthless.
