Just took delivery of my GT350. So much has been written and recorded on these fantastic cars that I wanted to share some things that aren't always mentioned. Observations are as compared to my previous '16 GT PP. The Recaro's offer a superior driving position and are more comfortable. The...

Faced the same dilemma; SC a GT or go GT350. I will trading my GT for a GT350...The difference with depreciation is $33k. In hindsight I am glad I waited till now to do the GT350 as there is no ADM on '17 non R's, and includes track pack which I may not have done in '16. :cheers:

Very interesting cars.

Well, I am going GT350! Worked out a deal for a '17 in route to a local dealer and trade on my '16 GT. I would have ordered Lightning Blue, but I am good with understated Magnetic, no strips. Tech package and car cover optioned. This will be my 8th Mustang since 1988, and cool with my...

I am consolidating my fleet; I recently sold my '82 GT and prepping my '04 Lightning f/s. I see a '77-'78 Lincoln Mk V on the horizon as a future project (521 ci BBF). In the meantime I am either going to go Vortech SC on my unmoddified 7.5k mi pristine GT or order a 2018 GT350. Either way...

Daily Driven Have tires will travel. 4 corner 255/40/19 Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 N Spec (Porsche certified) allow me to drive aggressive all year long.

From the perspective as a daily driver, if I bought my Mustang GT first, I don't think I would have bought another. In other words, I bought an EB first and was so impressed that I bought a GT and sold my EB to my youngest son. After nearly 30 years of V8 Mustang experience, and although it's...

Exactly the same; 20 mpg.

EB Mustang, great cars!

That's funny I said the same thing back then and bought an '88 GT! Aside from the nice sounds V8' make, my experience is turbos make better daily drivers. A 4.0TT would be pretty sweet.

FWIW, the S550 is about as different from a European car as is possible. Only when you see larger scale cars such as a 6 series BMW does there seem to be some sort of correlation. Otherwise its big, brash, inefficient in its exterior/interior proportions and I love it! I also think both the...

From what I read the 5.0 is the torquer vs the 6.2. The 5.0 has a broader power band, however there is no denying the power to weight favors the SS and its 8speed torque multiplication.

This. I do look forward to seeing them in action at RA 8/5 :headbang:

Well I will tell you I recently rebuilt a HO 302 firing order with a cam that was non HO/351. With the same shorty headers, X pipe and exhaust it sounded the same, albeit with more valve overlap lope due to the cam. Not very scientific mind you but perhaps more conclusive than a tri-y header...

Negative. I have a 1,5 .... Firing 302 in a fox which is the same as a 289 or non HO 302. The 1,3 .... Order is the same as a 351. I have been building SBFs for over 20 years of both firing orders, and you cannot tell the difference in sound based on this. Also a '05-'10 4.6 3v does not...

A thought occurred to me; the reason the fox body/Sn95 exhaust always sounded good regardless if what was a SBF or Mod motor was because the mufflers were mid body with long tailpipes. The S197/S550 has a different tone (less refined in its pitch to my ear) due to its rear location of mufflers...

I have one on order ;)

12 speaker with sub. I admit I was apprehensive about going with this (and blis) since most seemed to feel it was shite. I am really glad I did though; sync 3 is quick and easy, and so far like I orignally posted, it pounds for a factory system. I have 2x10" Kicker CompR enclosure, w/600wX2...

I recently traded my '12 135 for an ordered '16 GT. I have a '15 EB that I drive when I am in FL (DD f/work) every other month. I noticed that I was having a hard time adjusting to the 135 when back home in WI; heavy steering, annoying 2-step push button start and an inferior ride/handling...

How is this is not news? I asked my son what Coupe was the best selling in Germany for March. His jaw is still on the ground. It does represent a very good performance value, burger analogies aside.
