Very good / fair point on the generations - now that’s the first explanation I’ve seen that is convincing and makes sense. More of an evolution over time, and not some hard designation…You’ve convinced me. Now what would be awesome to see and something I’ll work on eventually is a thread on...

So much out there on the nuances, and don’t have the time now to pull them all together but it’s all stuff that’s likely common knowledge to you at this point, but likely not many others who bought this car because it’s the baddest Mustang without fully understanding what kind of machine it...

Regarding the ticking time bomb comment, to address that from a slightly different angle… I think there are just so many variables at play here above and beyond the engine alone making it impossible to paint this car with such a broad, simple brush. It’s a finely tuned, race inspired, more...

We’re on the same page - I’m simply proving a point using even the most generous of interpretations. Regardless of what Ford acknowledges or not, to me, the changes are significant enough to warrant some reasonable designation. Whether you call it Gen 2, a refresh, an update, whatever the ****...

So this is an argument of semantics then, not reality. If it’s a different block, with refreshed parts, it’s not the same. Same means same, not similar with slight differences. My opinion is, who cares what ford says or acknowledges - if the engine was changed, albeit subtly, it’s different.

I don’t understand why it’s so controversial to say “gen 2” on here - if you objectively look at how much has changed, even if just minor things in isolation, as a whole it’s a pretty decent refresh…I think we can agree that a so called “gen 2” exists while also NOT saying “gen 1s” are bad…feels...

What you “save” on way in, you’ll lose on way out. Big difference between price and cost of ownership. R will always command a premium, and good arguments to be made as to why cost of ownership over time will be cheaper on R when you consider your exit, if any. If you have the financial...

Super helpful pics - I think the cover looks best actually. I see the size point, but I’m OK with that. Material looks oem as well. Since I’m not concerned about performance of it, I’m going cover. Super helpful pics thanks for this!

Love this - and I can relate...My 2 year old daughter screams "MORE FAST" from the back seat in my car. I obviously don't push it with her in the car, but a little stomp on the gas to rock her around and she goes absolutely bonkers...she also prefers the windows down and music playing...future...

Thanks for the heads-up on the covers...this is a nice solution for me, as I won't be tracking (spirited driving for sure, but no track time) so the cover will accomplish my goal of cleaning up the engine bay without swapping the actual part...thank you!

Thank you, appreciate this! LR149 is the chassis number. Was hunting for an HEP for a long time, but wanted a sweet spot that was harder to find. Felt like guys either had ZERO mile cars for crazy numbers (not relevant for me as I wanted to drive mine moderately and not keep the plastic on...

Such a sexy color combo, especially with the red accents and role bar peak through the glass…gorgeous R, and I’m sure pics do it no justice!

Thinking of a nice happy medium - buying a second OEM one and painting it black. Clean up the look of the bay a bit, while sticking with an OE spec product.

Thanks guys, appreciate the kind words! It's not that one...mine has 1300 miles on her, enough to be past break-in / not pay some insane collector premium. Fired up for this thing...the previous owner was a real enthusiast and I love that, guy had the window sticker framed and a...

Hey guys - quick intro to a long time listener, first time caller! Have been in the market for a 350R on/off for ~3-4 years now, and finally pulled the trigger on one. Purchased a 2020 GT350R Heritage Edition from the guys at JLD down in FL, and I'm taking delivery to Long Island, NY this...
