        Well, you will finally be able to get your Shelby GT500 Mustang late next year. Ford posted yet another teaser and the official reveal will be on 1/14/19 at the North American International Auto Show.


        What else do we learn from the teaser? The supercharger manifold appears to be built with cooling in mind. It's a departure from previous designs.

        That is about all we glean from this teaser. Expect big power and a 10-speed automatic.

          everything has turbos now it’s boring. It’s a muscle car a supercharger is right at home on it imo. Plus you know the aftermarket will make one.

          Counterpoint, not everything has turbos now (all of this cars "competitors" are blown) and turbos are better for going fast.
          Hellcat/demon, z06/zr1/zl1 etc are supercharged and if this was turbo it would be more badass.

          Every Euro V8 is now turbo and he has a point that it is cool the Americans do it their way.

          Truthfully the fastest 1/4 mile cars are all supercharged but turbos are great.

          The power delivery of a positive displacement is more fun IMO while turbos tend to be easier to extract power out of although this thing with a pulley and tune will be 900+ hp.

          Just like the new midengined vette will.
