Some new info/pics: 2013 GT500 Reveal and Q&A with Jamal Hameedi & Jim Owens - Team Shelby

Quote:
The engine was just recently certified at 662 hp and 630 ft lbs of torque, 16 mpg city, 24 hwy, no gas guzzler tax, 0-60 in first gear! Cooling this beast was a challenge and the final production car has no grill. There are even pressure activated trap doors on the fan shroud to increase cooling when needed!

and if you read the article, it handles as well as it runs. Quite impressive amount of performance for the dollar.

I am impressed/surprised!

If I were not going after land/house, I would be totally butthurt about buying a 370Z instead of trading my Z06 for one of these. Then again, it's no better than my Z06, just different, but kudos to Ford for making it perform like a Z06!

The cool thing is that it's like 1/2 a 370Z cheaper than a Z06! :D

Sir, can I interest you in some high quality confidence? Our confidence has been lab tested to nearly red__zed levels and should fulfill any desire you may have for more horsepower. We use only the finest quality unicorn blood and lemonade in our product.

An excellent point! If I just believe in my Z, I bet it could have this much horsepower!
