The brake rotors kind of look like carbon ceramic though I HIGHLY doubt they are.

It's to bad they're not..I got them on my ZR1 and I can drive 100 + miles and not get hardley any brake dust

at all...on my GT500 I used to have I'd drive 10 miles and the brake dust was even on the side of the car.

If the aftermarket made a carbon ceramic brake or even brembo offered one that would work with car I'd buy it in a heart beat. Cleaning the brake dust off the wheels is a PITA. I'd gladly pay 4000 dollars to not have to clean them every 4-7 days.

What size tires and rims are they?  The look super plain and not very stylish.  If it helps jam more rubber in back then maybe it's worth it.

I can't tell from the picture but I see that it has Michelin's on it now, as someone said in another thread.

I need to find that thread and tell him he was right and I was wrong.....

I said the SS had Pirelli P-zero's on it.

I hate to say it, but I have to agree. I think 2012 was the last of the mohicans regarding Super Snake styling. The wheels on this new Shelby are terrible and never was a fan of concave wheels. The Alcoas were WAY better. Honestly if they wanted to go with a different wheel, I would prefer something like the Shelby CS1 or the CS40 wheel. I also see that Shelby put on the egg crate grill. Is that too much air for the car to handle? Also hate to say, but I have to agree with what one of the FB commenters said about the tail pipes which I think was deleted: it would look better with quad chrome tips on it. I understand that the round mufflers may be the reason on changing the tips but still.

I hate to bash on such a great package. The Super Snake package was partially the reason why I chose the username. But this I can't describe. It's like a step backward. I guess if I wanted to get a Snake, the '07-'09 is the way to go. I will take a 2013 GT500 defiantly, just mod it myself to get the power, keep the GT500 look sleeper-wise and keep it at that.

Everyone seems to have said most of it; Alcoa's were much nicer, and those tips are too.....fugly.
Here's to hoping my idolized car doesn't disappoint us, which I doubt it will when it comes out.

Hopefully Shelby will sell the take off exhaust for cheap.  They ruined the best looking exhaust and my favorite part of the new GT500.

Look closer.

The lower grille is open, the blower is the new SVT 5.8L badged blower, the rear lights are the new 2013 LED lights and the facia has the middle blacked in lic. plate area...It's not a 2012, it's a 2013.with a 2013 upper egg crate grille installed.
