  1. So Long, farewell, thanks for all the fish...

    Well guys, I traded in Lucy (Lucifer) my Red 2016 GT350 after 6 1/2 years and 48k miles. While I considered the GT500, I came to the conclusion that I seldom if ever use 526 HP, there is no chance that I would need 760.... Now parked in the garage is a 2022 BMW Z4 M40i... 0-100 9.1 sec and...
  2. Exhaust Opening Issues

    Since my car was new, I have had frequent but inconsistent issues with the exhaust opening and subsequently an inability to change modes. I've had it at the shop a few times and they can never replicate this hit and miss issue. Have others had this problem and what is the popular opinion on...
  3. INTERMITTENT shut down!

    Recently while stopped with the car running I have had my gauge and stereo shut down, which I address by restarting my car. However, yesterday I was moving when it happened and my steering locked up. DAYMN! I have called my local dealership and they can't get me in for 3 weeks! Has...
  4. Exhaust valve very inconsistant

    My diving modes have been pretty inconsistent in operation. The problem is clearly centered in operation of the exhaust valve. It's never been a huge problem, but it's become more and more unreliable, so I took it in my my local Ford Dealership. I like the men and women at this...
  5. New Brakes $3k... is there a better way

    I just got a call from my dealership, they want $3,000 to replace pads and rotors all around. I haven't seen the rotors yet, but I'm a little surprised as I heard a small squeal 2 days ago and parked the car. I plan on stopping by later today to get the car and discuss the matter with my...
  6. Drive Mode NOT available

    Full disclosure I'm running the Magnaflow exhaust on my car. In fact my car was the car Magnaflow used to design their gt350 exhaust. It's a great system, though milder than stock. That said, before the install and also after the install I get FREQUENT, "Drive Modes Not Available"...
  7. Anyone Else???

    Lately, I've been experiencing a pause in acceleration. Let's say I'm crusing along in 3rd gear at about 4k rpms. I jump on the gas and you hear the engine rpms increasing, cut no increase in rate of travel. Then after a beat or so, it catches and takes off. It's like some sort of rubber...
  8. Damn! Stolen Snake (perhaps misleading)

    Last night I came out of work and found that my snake was gone. Not the whole car, just the cobra on the back panel. Someone had broken it off. For anyone who has replaced/upgraded this part, what are my options. I like the idea of getting a CF panel with a R-style Red snake, as my...
  9. Air Conditioner Issues

    So, my AC has been having periodic bouts of just pushing out hot humid stale smelling air. It went on once for about 3 days, so I took it to the dealership and of course it worked perfectly while in their possession. Now intermittent occurrences of non function are back. Has...
  10. Anyone have work done at Shelby American

    Hi Gang. I was heading to Las Vegas last week and thought I might try to get some Ford Racing Racing Springs, the Shelby American GT350 Front Cooling Scoop and some Shelby American Caster Camber Plates installed. So I sent an email asking if this was something that they might consider...
  11. Curb Rash

    So my 16 year old son and I were driving a long and he decided to crack me up..... situational you had to be there, but while trying not to pass out I was laughing so hard, I clipped a curb slow rolling a corner. Ultimately, it's ugly. good news, Not and R, bad news I can't find a part...
  12. Most Handsome Mustang Ever

    So about 2 years ago the s550 stepped out into the light. Many shouted, "Too Euro, Feminine, Fusion-like, not a true mustang, looks like an Aston Martin (How is that bad?)... I gotta say, I liked it from the start. Are there any of you today who think the current generation isn't one of...
  13. Good Price for Super Sports @ Costco

    Hey Guys, I have around 11k miles on lucy and I know that tires will be an issue soon. So looking around, Costco seems to have pretty competative prices around $350 per tire. If someone knows of a better price, please clue in your Shelby Brothers...... Price/tire set of 4 $342.49...
  14. BEST price on an "R"???

    Has anyone WITHOUT a blown motor procured an "R" for msrp? For those of you with an "R" what ADM did you have to pay? Anyone aware of deals??? I ask not for me as I am happy as a clam with my RR Tech. It drives way better than I do and fits my lifestyle. But, others have done a fair...
  15. What's your name?

    It seems like there has been a thread for this, but a search came up empty. I'm sorry in advance if I missed something. But, what have you named your GT350 & GT350R? I' have named my Race Red GT350 Lucy because A: Lucy was America's favorite Red Head and my car is very very red. B...
  16. Where is my Leather Jacket?

    If you own a Harley, Porsche, or Corvette you can buy anyone of dozens of really nice leather jackets with your preferred brand logo prominently featured. The Jackets available at the Shelby store really aren't very appealing to me, (to each his own). It would be great if there were a few...
  17. My Screen Went Blank/Black Today

    So I started Lucy up today and proceeded to back out of the Garage. NO Back Up Screen, just black. Dropped it in first, no nav, no audio, no nothing. i stopped the car turned it off, waited 5 minutes to restart NOTHING. Tried holding down audio on off button for various times up to 60...
  18. DIB W/White Stripes tech Available at msrp

    Hi Guys, I got a call from Joe Tamez, the guy who sold me my car at msrp called me today and said he had a Deep Impact Blue Tech at MSRP. He states that it's on the lot and ready to go. He is at Jim Burke Ford in Bakersfield, CA. CONTACT iNFO: 661-328-3631 office 661-204-6036...
  19. SYNC 3 PHONE PROBLEM

    So I have a problem. Often (too often) when I attempt to hang up on a phone call, the sync system won't let go. What I mean by that is that while the timer stops at the proper time say 55 seconds, the system refuses to respond to new imput. If I try to go to bluetooth for music, it's a no...
  20. Anyone unhappy with their car?

    OKEY DOKEY, several of us have our cars. Many of us feel there are a few issues here and there that could be improved, but it is my sense that we are unanimously thrilled with our cars. I know when the 2015's came out, many said it looked too much like a focus. I know lots of people...
