This documentary-style goodbye to the GT500 is priceless! I own a bright orange 18 GT and although they are very different machines, it's fun that folks are enjoying the platform as much as they do. Time for a GTD?

Rented a gt500 for a weekend, that was three weeks ago. Just bought a GT500 today - 9/4/24. 2020 with only 2k miles that sat in a garage. I’ll probably double the miles in the first month. Gonna drive it daily. So excited.

As a former GT350 with lots of hours on track , and having the opportunity to drive a GT500 CFTP once on a familiar track I will say that the GT500 solves EVERY issue that sort of holds back the GT350R in being the best/quickest/easiest to drive track day car. GT350 'unreliable' 526 HP same as a 6th gen camaro SS1LE with mods, fix that with a BIG supercharger, Cross plane crank, lower compression+redline and let the TORQUE haul you past every car on a straight , DCT to minimize shift time and chance for money shift, list goes on.

As a current gen 2020 GT500 owner I don't think I'll ever ever sell it, it oozes feeling special from the moment you start it

Saying goodbye to our resident track hero wasn't easy, and we will miss its raucous exhaust filling our garage at the Edmunds office. Is there a car you had to let go of that you still miss? Let us know in the comments below!

Because of the videos made with the GT500 that Edmunds have done is the reason I went out and found mine. Thanks

I could not get a GT500 in Australia so I bought a 10R80 2020 Mustang GT and stuck 40K US of quality mods on it (super charger, supporting mods, suspension etc). It does low 5's 60-13mph and for a big car handles awesome. I run canyons with a mate of mine in a 2020 GT3RS Porsche, no I'm not quicker than him in corners but he cannot believe the incredible performance of my stang v $ paid.
