Interesting. DCT 6 speed. My guess $125k. Real nice.

No DCT. A single clutch (dual plate) dog-ring Holinger race gearbox with pneumatic actuators and paddle shifting.

Aren't most GT4-spec cars >~$200K?

I'd imagine Ford will be able to price this below 140k - isn't the Cayman GT4 Spec racer 175k?

Will that pneumatic sequential trans require expensive rebuilds like the 997 Cups? This is what steered me away from Cups. My tremec 6060 in my Boss Trans Am car is analog but bullet proof.

The basic PCA spec is but if you want to run where this car is targeted - PWC/IMSA - you need the full spec Cayman CS with Manthey upgrades, which is $220+ by the time you're done.

Thats a little rich for my taste.

$125K or so would interest me if I was looking (and I'm not) but not beyond that.

You can now buy near new Z28s with less than 1000 miles between $45k and $55k. That's a great play..R performance at 1/2 the current price.

Drove an LE and it was impressive! A match for the Boss LS for sure.

Got passed by two z28s yesterday at Sebring. At that price it's the bargain of the century. Never driven a z28 but watched a few videos. These modern muscle cars have so much hp and tire.
Cant wait to track my gt350.

From: http://sportscar365.com/gt/ford-reveals-mustang-gt4/
The Mustang GT4 is equipped with the next generation, naturally aspirated 5.2L V8 racing engine specifically tuned for GT4 competition. The race engine was engineered, validated and built by Ford Performance in partnership with Roush Yates Engines.

A lightweight, compact six-speed Holinger paddle shift transmission delivers proven race durability with direct-pneumatic activation for fast, positive and consistent gear shifts. The GT4 powertrain also carries a dry sump oiling system, ZF-developed twin-plate racing clutch and flywheel.

Chassis features on the Mustang GT4 include:
* Dynamic Suspension Spool Valve (DSSV) dampers from Multimatic for advanced predictability, accuracy, repeatability and ultimate vehicle control
* Rear lower control arms (designed specifically for coil-over springs) and front/rear stabilizer bars from Multimatic
* Lightweight 18” x 11” forged alloy wheels from Forgeline
* Rotors and six-piston calipers from Brembo

Aerodynamic enhancements on the Mustang GT4 include a rear wing, the design of which was derived from lessons learned by the Ford GT racing program, front splitter, hood venting, diveplanes and rear diffuser. On the interior, the Mustang GT4 carries a full FIA-compliant roll cage and race-oriented dash logger from MoTeC.
