Meh. They're basically slapping the GT engine, which in itself just a suped up Lightning engine, into the GT500. A curb weight of 4000lbs is just disgusting. The 03 Cobra was already mega portly at 3700+ 4k is getting close to the old 60's Galaxie 500s.

The 5.4 supercharged engine just does nothing for me.
