Observations: These are all so much more beautiful in person. The short throw shifter was a huge difference. Shelby rep said it’s a Barton on the MT82.

Man! the color of that GTD really sucks; but if they "insisted" on giving it to me; I guess I'd take it. 😉😆

PS: Great photos and thanks for posting!

Hard to tell the color vs. the lighting.

Note, according to Shelby rep I talked to, the one under wrap is an unveiling and contest giveaway.

What are the impressions from seeing the GTD in person from those who've seen it?

More beautiful than expected. Not my kind of ride though.

I find it kind of disappointing if Shelby is using the MT82 instead of a Tremec, that is if this is the final iteration of their build. Would you warranty it for three years behind an SC Coyote?

Sure, why not? Roush does it everyday. So many on here have SC’ed GT’s. The MT82 is far from perfect but it handles power pretty well.

The rep didn't happen to mention the horsepower of the Shelby did he?

Lockouts at high rpm shifts likely SAVES the mt82 …

And I know I’m yelling at a wall but the tremec is not some badass piece, just as many problems with lockouts, grinding gears etc…

It said it was a Super Snake so is it a GT500 and if it is I was surprised and I expected a automatic trans not a 6spd MT82 and not a Tremec? Also I'm guessing they are both 2025 releases.

Is there anyone else like me who wishes the GTD had been branded as a Cobra R?

Absolutely not. if the Cobra name is ever used again by Ford let it be for a car that is somewhat affordable by regular Mustang owners. Besides the GTD is a great name as it is a street legal GT3 race car.
