I have owned a 2015 and 2016 GT and now i want a shelby.

Any issues with these cars other than the recall? I don't want to spent 50k and have broken a car.

Don't be ridiculous non GT350 owner. You would buy it tomorrow for 25K if you have any money or credit.
If i could I would own an R a TP and a base all 16MY.

Potential weak OPG made from powdered metal not billet like it should be. All '15, '16, '17 GT350s made to date have the same OPG. All have engine cooler, preferred models have trans/diff cooler as well. Regardless they all have the best sound of any car I have ever heard... It's worth the risk IMO.

It is things like this that will want us all wanting the GT500 anyways...

66.5K for 650hp/650tq, 0-60 in 3.5 in 1st gear. Oh, and it has 11 coolers to keep temps in check vs. 1-3 in the GT350 depending on your package. I'm not a trader, I'm not a trader, I'm not a trader... is what I keep telling myself. And the fact that it sounds like a truck, sounds dumb compared to the GT350.

Actually, I wouldn't. I would take a Track Pack or any of the new models with the tranny cooler. I would be quite embarrassed cruising on a Freeway when the temperature is 90 degrees, and having to pull over or slow way down (and have Hyundais from the 90's passing me). I just paid off my Boss last week, and am content with the car I have. Last I checked, my credit score was 777....might be time for a Casino run.

But you could sell it tomorrow for 40K and make 15K, far better odds than the casino. Maybe that's the Jew in me talking... Can I say that? I guess, I am one.

Unless I missed it I thought this was debunked. OPG in the voodoo pump are billet.

well thanks for the info. This is going to be my weekend car and no track time at all. I highly doubt it will go into limp mode.

I obviously wish you the best. That being said, do ALL your research BEFORE you buy the car. The lack of a tranny fluid cooler would be a deal breaker for me...there are threads/posts where guys have gone into limp mode on a highway......

If the OP is in a hot climate with hills/mountains than I'd agree. Also if he is driving with the car loaded with peeps can then the probability jumps up as well.
