      i still love driving my modified FBO only one on the earth s550 gt with tune, the custom sound is awesome with lth, gt350 is a great car at hyped price in my opinion, not as reliable as coyote mustang, still weak on low end torque, normal daily driving is boring except rev it past 6000rpm, i doubt u can do it on street that often, so as for these reasons i don’t have the motivation to spend 50k or 60k to get it

  • @scubasteve2976

    I have a '17 - agree with all points. GT350 will go down as the last Shelby that was truly innovative while paying respect to the original '65 and its road racing heritage. The Voodoo engine alone is worth the price of admission...not to mention the Tremec, revised front end, etc, etc. Every time I drive it, it's an experience. Many automotive journalists have called it the American GT3 - quite the compliment.

    1. V8 Flat Plane Crank Voodoo Engine
    2. Manual shifter
    3. Stop production of gt350 and R
    Added bonus for me is the heritage color. I love this car. Enjoy yours!

    I bought my '18 GT350 new off the showroom floor in December 2018 with 4.2 miles on the clock. Paid flat invoice. My top reasons for going GT350, in no particular order, were:
    - Port fuel injection
    - Naturally aspirated
    - Tremec gearbox
    - MagneRide
    - Recaro buckets
    I'm at 19,6xx.x miles of trouble-free daily driving and weekend Appalachian foothills carving. Best car I've ever owned for sure. I hope you get years of enjoyment from yours as well. 🤙

    The 760HP and the front area of the car is why I chose the GT500 over the GT350. I used to be Chevy guy until the 2020 GT500 came out. The Camaro to me had a more aggressive look from the front than the GT350. The GT500 changed all that with a very aggressive looking front.

    @stephengray3401 3 года назад +3

    All of your reasons are totally compelling for purchasing a 350 over a 500. Given a choice though, it is reason #1 - That flat plane crank Voodoo motor is worth the price of the car. I know because I purchased a 2016 Shelby GT 350 a couple of years ago and whenever I drive it I have a smile on my face. That engine is unreal especially as you approach higher rpms. No doubt the 500 is a very special vehicle but no way will I pay a dealer a markup for a car. That is like taking a blow torch to your cash. And, when I look at the 500's interior I just scratch my head. The whole purpose of purchasing a vehicle like this is to enjoy the driving experience and get engaged with the car. How do you do that with an automatic? Sorry. And, the lame ass selector knob just looks out of place in a car like the 500. How often are you going to the track? Maybe a lot but that can get super costly real quick. The 350 is a wonderful daily driver. Tramlining is a bit of an issue but not much. You made the right choice and I wish you many miles of great driving ahead. By the way, those are two super duper kids you have. They deserve something special for how well they worked cleaning your wheels especially. My ride is the same color and it always draws positive comments from others.

    • @BackroadDriver
      @BackroadDriver  3 года назад +1

      I think all 15 - 20 GT350s are considered fastbacks. The big difference is the standard GT350 versus the GT350R. The R is more track focused and has a carbon wheels, no back seats, larger front splitter, red badging and accents, and is overall just a more raw car. Both are extremely fun to drive.

I know you 2020 GT500 owners are like what you put in to the the GT350 you could have built a nice GT500, but I wouldn't have that 6 speed manual. I have owned 2 Shelley GT500's 2009 & 2014 Awesome cars but big and bulky just wanted something lighter and handle better.

    Both cars have their meritts but i agree, ide opt for the GT350, and R if possible. Then ide add back the tech package. The GT350 is the balanced racer, moreover the more exotic engine. Also with it being a manual, and an incredibly great manual at that, its the cars thats far more engaging, the true drivers car. Sorry flappy paddle people but a stick in a mustang is just glory unbound. The connection between man and machine is something that only true car lovers understand. ANd your just not going to get that in a flappy paddle vehicle. So what we have with the GT350 over the 500 will be one of the last and one of the greatest drivers cars, as the manuals are going the way of the dodo. The shelbys are cars you keep. I know from the purchase of my very first car, a 96 crystal white SaleenS281 speedster. Much like the Shelby GT350, the S281 took all the prowess of Saleen Racing DNA built from actual US an European GT class endurance racing. Long before the Shelby came back on the scene, Saleen took that torch and ran with it. Impressivle beating the likes of Ferrari Porsche Viper Corvette back in the day, when most people still only saw mustangs as street light drag racers at best. But the Saleens were much much more than that. Its taken 16 years for ford to Finally get it right from factory.
