Itās the stripes. Iām English. The vast majority arenāt aware of the Mustang/stripe association so when they see a car with stripes they assume that itās something the owner has stuck on to make it look racy. If your car had no stripes the eyes would have followed you down the street.This was the funniest thing; in Amsterdam people go completely gaga for it. In the UK literally NOBODY showed any reaction. Theyād hear the V8 rumble coming down the street, turn around, realize it wasnāt an Aston Martin, give sort of a āoh dearā look and carry on. Haha.
When I was waiting in line for the ferry with the E-Type next to me, people were coming over constantly to take pictures and talk to the E-Type owner. I was ignored 100%

Fun time Ray.I went to the āMid-Ohioā track over the weekend for a HPDE event. One āBossā, āMach 1ā (parked next to me) and a ā17 GT350ā My instructor was a super nice man that drives some AWD 911 turbo Porsche. He could not believe the performance of the GT-350. Acceleration, Braking, Handling and the repeatability. Lap after Lap. His words were
"You drove this car faster and faster every lap. Off line at times when you got a late pass signal and they didn't slow to let you get by in two different corners. This car never didn't turn or react to your input, I just sat as a passenger and enjoyed the ride"
Then he asked what I paid for it and said "Unbelievable, I now have a lot of respect for the GT-350"
Looks great. And also clever. Just clear over primer to get that color silver.I clean them up with brake cleaner , used a 3m red scotch brite pad and scuffed them up ,Duplicolor metal cast paint , and high temp clear over it , and finished it with Bemaro caliper overlays on the face of the caliper ,
