New Bullit Mustang on display at NY auto show, pretty badass...
GT350R Carbon Fiber Wheel Info
- Thread starter Carson
- Start date
All I can see are the halos on the piano black rear panel. On a show car. Unreal.

National Mustang Day tomorrow. The only event I found in the area is Hershey, not driving all the way over there. But the south jersey mustang club is doing their mustang day cruise on Saturday so will probably do that.

All these auto show display cars must get scratched to hell from all us commoners fingering and rubbing against them all day.
Gotta imagine that they get buffed daily.
There's also the opposite. What was it, the GT-500 that had a painted rear axle on the cars at the shows, but the production cars had un-painted rear axles, leading to a lawsuit against Ford by owners annoyed at their rusty rear axle.
get your fire suit and 10 sec license...

480 HP?? I priced out an 18 GT PP last year, with virtually every option you could get a little over 50K
Yeah it's 460HP I think. And he's silly on the price. Rental car white, too.

You putting that in to prevent carbon buildup on the intake valves?

Yeah some guys put them on both sides but it seems the consensus is driver side is always dry, passenger side collects oil

I think that the only thing that stops carbon buildup is whatever voodoo that GM and Porsche are doing (in their boxer engines anyway), or adding port injection back in (which I frankly don't understand why everyone isn't doing already). Otherwise, budget a walnut shell blasting every 30k.
I got a teaspoonful out of my Coyote every 5,000 miles. No idea what the Voodoo will doodoo.

If it wasn't a DI engine, then a little oil from the crank don't matter. GM has somehow managed to vent their crank cases and time ignition events such that their motors don't really build up carbon. Same with Porsche, although maybe the engine layout has something to do with it as well. Ze othzer Germans have had horrendous results. VW/Audi (even Lambo) has started putting port injection back into their motors under the guise of "torque a lower engine loads". One of the reasons why I wouldn't pull the trigger on an older RS4 or RS5.
Not bad for $50k. @rick81721 how many bikes can you fit in this thing?

Lothar
Same trunk as mine. You can fit one if you take the front wheel off

Sea sucker. Two plus bikes.
I dunno. $50k for a track focused car that needs a rear differential break every few laps.
$50k is used Maserati GranTurismo money with a Ferrari engine. Good god I want that car.

Yeah if you want a track car, pick up a used GT350.
