Prob a waste, no doubt. But I run in a hot area in summer, and like I said I drive the car hard and as a daily. If nothing else it makes me feel better. I didn’t exactly buy it to save money anyway🤷‍♂️

I’ve seen others say they also checked oil change frequency when researching these cars. As an anecdote, and sample of one, I drive mine VERY spiritedly during the summer and it is my daily driver. As soon as the oil begins to really brown, I take it in for an oil change. Usually a bit over 2k...

About to turn 26k in my ‘18 and it’s been great. Doesn’t burn oil and I don’t baby it. But I don’t do stupid shit like revving to redline to show someone the noise either. Keep the oil checked and changed it will be fine. Now stuff like the A/C? 😬

I agree. I hav an ‘18 350 (non R) about to turn 21k daily driven miles. I’ve checked the oil weekly since I bought it, and has not consumed any oil at all. Sat and Sun I take it on backroads and it sees redline often. Maybe I’m just lucky, but I doubt it.

Is this the R model only? My regular Gt350 absolutely closes the baffles upon depressing the clutch, and you can hear them cycle. I push it once, let the cycle, let out and depress again. MUCH quieter even on a multi-day cold start.

Congrats on the new car, she’s a beaut! Be sure to check out the “GT350 Basics” sticky.Sage advice in there.

Love the looks of the car, the high-revving V8, pretty much everything about the performance. But, I friggin HATE the “double honk” when getting out of the running car.

Ok thanks, good to know. If I can’t turn up anything local tomorrow, I’ll prob order from them and wait. Thanks again.

Yeah, they are the Ruby Red of the blue cars IMO. The flake in the sunlight is sick. I like the white stripes on yours. Pretty car.

Yeah they’re a month out, by their estimate. I’m not real confident based on what DT told me.

Yeah that’s where I ordered them from, paid, and scheduled an install. They just called to tell me the rears are a no-go.

Ordered MPSS thru Discount Tire and they just called with the great news that the rear 305’s for the silver badges are unavailable with no known eta. Great! They have the cup 2’s, but it rains here frequently and I daily the car. Anyone have a source? I’m not categorically opposed to the cups...

QUOTE="Angrey, post: 3214943, member: 51223"] Please don't take this the wrong way, but it's been a lingering complaint against the GT350 for some time. Many driver's who just aren't accustomed to driving a high rev motor feel more comfortable in the traditional, big American V-8, hence the...

No experience with the whipple, but my N/A 2016 stayed around 205 normally, and would get in the 220’s when idling in hot weather. My 350 is similar, although it tends to get hot quicker. I’m not a mechanic however. This is just my personal experience.

Yep no problem. Sorry, I can’t help with fitment on your car. No clue.
