That was fun to see ZL1 fans crying that year. ![Happy](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_stretch.gif)
If the GT350 were to continue, there is no reason to believe they could not make a small bump in power to 540-550.. place the Mach 1 at 500ish, and GT at 475range.c
At thisjdn
Another couple hundred pounds would definitely help things.

Maybe I will be able to find an A8 6gen locally sometime to test "your" theory![Winky](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_wink.gif)

also there hasn't been a time that I can remember where ford made any substantial power advancements in the gt without going to a new chassis or body style. I can see ford doing a small bump in 18 to make things look better but until the car gets its next major facelift I don't see much happening. Again there's simply no reason too.

You didn't say anything about an engine change. You just made a blanket statement about Ford not giving a substantial power bump without a new chassis/body style. 110hp seems substantial to me.

Im looking but I planned on next spring. But the 20% is very tempting. I didn't think you could do 20 and 0%?
Got my eye on a new black 16 1ss a8 in petoskey I emailed them today. They want 33 which is too much cuz it's a base car. They inflated the MSRP by listing it as having the lpo black and red outline wheels and red trim kit. Which it does not. That put the MSRP at 41k... 33k after 20.
It should be 31k. I'm gonna try to get it for 30k. If they will I'll be buying it. Not gonna pay 33 for a 1ss when I've seen 2ss for 35-36. That will be a bit cheaper than what I paid for my base manual 1ss 2010 lol. We'll see what happens.

My bad, forgot about that. I'm sure banks or credit unions would go pretty low on new cars. Think the fiance's car is 3% for 72mo or so.

Buy it up man. No, Zyborg is right, can't do both. Credit union would probably have a competitive rate though if you can't buy it outright with cash.

No I can't buy it cash. But I have about 10k down. Just sucks if I buy it I'll just be looking at it all winter. I don't need one right now so if they won't come down a bit forget it.

True, but if their sales levels fall to pre-advertisement pricing levels again, I'm sure this 16-20% off will be back for 2017 models when the 2018s come out.
I'm personally interested when a better selection of all-season or winter tires come out for the rear wheels.

And no you haven't been faster. You have no knock out blow there. Your fastest pass is pretty much the same as the fastest STOCK 6gen. If you go by your last time out you would be near the bottom of that list......with your modded mustang nanner.

Huh?
Ive been talking about trap in regards to a8 vs m6 this whole time. You ignored it until now. Wow br0
On stock wheels tires you have not been as fast as stock a8s stock tires. drag pack you have not been as fast as stock w/ drag pack a8. Of which only 1 has run in negative da. Rest have been ~3000. Would be close. But you have more mods now...
Had another good m6 time posted today. 12.25@115. 1660 DA. 1/8 7.97@91
