Gt350R delivered!!!

[Wizo]

Added some little touches over the weekend and drove it!
Stopped by a cars and coffee and drove some back roads - crazy fun!!!

I also had a Saleen pull up and want to race but I am not really into that so I passed. His car really sounded louder than mine honesty and was an older model.

The only bad thing is that it’s a cop magnet and every time I see a State Trooper they come racing up to me to see if I am speeding.

Congrats! I love the color.

I have the non-R 350 and it gets a lot of attention. I imagine the R is even worse. I had a guy in a Mclaren riding my butt this past weekend and reving like crazy.

I know you're the 3rd owner but - check to make sure the spring spacers have been removed on front and back. It might be the pictures but it looks like it is setting a hair high.

Grats ! Nice R and Raptor. I guess the single garage will be for the R

1. Redline Hood struts for your hood. easy install no drill ect ect
2. Flex tune from Jon jr on a Nguage. I have not been up in Orlando lately so I do not know the e85 availability there, but boy does e85 wakes her up.

e85 also voids the warranty so just heads up.

side note, in regards to the spacers.

The front spacers are yellow in color and are inserted into the springs, the rear spacers are white in color and are on the top of the shock absorbers.

They seems to have a couple of diff models even for the GT350 version i.e. std vs elite model is polished stainless. Anyone have related experience & recommendations? I wish these were OEM provided....then again no fog lights is same for me.

I've had Redline Hood Struts on both a '16 and now my '18 GT350; highly recommend. Three versions: std., plus, Elite ... ALL 3 same shock. Zinc hardware /Blk, Black/Blk, OR Black/ Stainless Elite model. Mine are Elite. Sturdy and allow better engine bay access, look nice.

I will check for those spacer things tonight to see if they are still there. I do not have jacking rails and want to be super careful using a floor jack on it to see.

I will buy the hood struts today and thank you for the help with those.

I am getting a little grief from the wife about buying new wheels as she thought I told her I would not be buying any wheels since they came with carbon fiber ones. I do not think selling them to justify the cost of getting a new set makes sense as I was just trying to keep these ones pristine for the next owner - or for track use, its intended purpose.

She got here Monday evening and I already got her tinted.

Looking to do a few mods but whooa - what a beast!!

People are taking photos of it at traffic lights and with that exhaust it’s like being in a fish bowl.

First impressions are very good. Not straight line quick or AMG scary fast at acceleration but I think it’s like having a gt3 Porsche (I had a 911s with mods and gt3 kit in the past - launch edition with ceramics) - this feels more visceral and very sharp.

She is my weekend/fun car to drive but kept my 19 Raptor for my daily usage. Ford performance would be proud of me!

Congrats,

Can, I ask how you like having the Raptor as your daily? I'm considering looking at a Raptor but was not sure how it would be driving it everyday.
Thanks
Congrats!

The Raptor is awesome! I started out with a 2017 and modified it a little (wheels, lights, program) and then sold it for a Shelby f150 (which was awful) and kept that for about 30 days and found a 2019 instead.

Get it tuned. The best part of my Raptor is that is fast as anything out there and is comfortable to drive. I put a remote retractable bed cover on both and its worth every penny.

 

[Wizo]

Few other goodies added today...small things make all the difference and super excited about how it’s coming along.

Where did you purchase the GT350R plate bracket?

 

[ZipGT350]

Congrats, what a beauty. I'm moving to Orlando area end of this month. Looking forward to meet this beast on the streets!!

She is a beauty. Congrats

Nice ride. I love that color. Almost bought an '18 but non-R and no stripes but dealer still wanted $5k ADM so I passed and got my '17 non-R in Ava Grey. Any tune though will most likely void that powertrain warranty coverage for you and the next few owners. If you want it louder perhaps think of adding the Bline Motorsports off road mid-pipe. Owners which have them state the OEM pipe can be re-installed rather quickly if taking into the dealership for service. No tune needed due to the design, adds a few HP ponies, no CEL, excellent quality, and sounds great. I am thinking of getting one but I have emissions testing where I live. BUT FL DOES NOT. Oh how I remember those days running headers and open exhaust for a daily. Good luck with it and have fun!

Terrance, doesn't he need some nice new Signature Wheels to go with that beautiful color???
