According to Road & Track, the GT350R will debut in Detroit this January. It will feature better brakes, more aero, a set of stickier tires, and much, much more.

Figured as much.

"I wasn't impressed."

Ha. With a 500+ hp/400 tq flat plane crank motor (a first), magnaride shocks (a first) with necessarily upgraded brakes, better wheels, better styling etc.

"I wasn't impressed."

This might the rudest I get on here but if that's how you feel, start drinking fair-traded domestically harvested carbon-neutral not-animal-tested lattes and put on a black turtleneck because that's the hipster-iest thing I've read here. Everyone had to know something else was coming. The Boss had not only the LS variant but then the R/S variants. ... why would anyone expect any difference here?

No hard figures, no hard numbers. Not even driven(!) but still not enough.

CCB's are probably in the brake upgrade package. Unless Ford has found some way to reduce the cost on them I don't think I'd daily this car then there is the issue of R-compound tires as well.


I'm glad Ford went with the street car and a separate R model instead of a track only model like GM did with the Z/28.


IMO GM would have been smarter to do the same with the Z since the 1LE isn't nearly the same caliber as a Z/28 would have been with a more streetable set of tires and brakes let alone dampers.

I don't see this as ho-hum, yeah expected, but this friggin AWESOME news. Hope the R is not to much more...I sure hope to get one!!

I wouldn't count on that, as it's all going to depend on how many production models there are and how limited the production run is going to be :dunno:
