I feel that the tiny tiny ~$40,000 price difference should have no effect on outcome between two sports cars!

i saw an episode of 'battle of the supercars' (shown on the speed channel).
they raced a ford gt and a lamborghini gallardo.

the ford gt smoked the lamborghini gallardo in 2 events and on the 3rd event, the lamborghini gallardo broke down. talking about failure!

One of our (no longer active) members had a Ferrari 360. He bought it new and it broke down on the drive home from the dealership!

Yeah, it'd kind of ruin the whole experience of dropping 160k on a car! Haha.

Yeah I love the wild graphics. It's in-your-face ala the Porsche 911 GT3 RS. I like the silver with the bright red graphics.

when the boss goes on sale, to ford enthusiasts, the gt500 is still the higher end car, correct?

As a power car, yes. As a handling car... who knows at this point.

The next model GT500 is going to start using either a turbocharged or a supercharged 5.0 L. There were some spyshots of a GT500 mule with a boost gauge and 8,000 RPM redline floating around... so I guess we'll find out in time.
