What would it be?

Mine would be "balance". While the GT350 is quick, it's not the fastest car out there, while it handles superbly there are other cars that handle as well. To me what Ford did was design/engineer a car that balances speed, handling, weight, and cost so the average Joe can actually attain one (after waiting for the ADM's to subside of course).

"Responsive". This car is amazing on how it responds to lane changes and quick sudden passing.

Nice comments gents!! Agree with all your observations!!

And I might add "Badass"...it looks and sounds so aggressive, I catch guys sneaking looks at it all the time...sort of like at first they think it's another Mustang then they start looking closer and realize it's a Shelby GT350!

Ditto, 1 word, right. It’s not a one word car.

"Trifecta"

- perfect, winning choice of three qualities - speed, balance and looks.
( I know its not the exact meaning of trifecta, but it makes sense to me ! )

Too true, that FPC exhaust note is fantastic and addictive...does anyone ever drive in "Normal" mode

only coming/going through my condo complex alley ways.
That "normal" feature is really valuable to me.
Outside the complex, sport mode!
