In my experience, folks are few and far between that know the capability of the current 350. Those that do, want to see and hear of what it's capable. Most recently, I had a guy at a stop light (in a Taurus) tell me he liked my car. When the light turned green, he sped away temping me to gun...

Just got some off eBay. Super-high quality.

Give the number on the eBay ad a call. I’m sure there’s an explanation for the “refinished” comment on the fronts. $7K+ shipping for the set is a steal.

I use Black Magic Bleche-wite with PRIMASCRUB (R) (dissolves brake-dust, grease, grime and road film) and a soft bristle brush. Spray and let set for a short time. Regular cleaning the barrels is the price of R-model admission, but the results puts a smile on my face. My barrels look the same...

Don't give up trying to get your name tagged to a TA date...I was beyond my 12-month window due to scheduling issues. I called and explained my situation. The gentleman that talked to me was extremely friendly and helpful. My name was put on a list and he called me back within 1 hour with a...

If the speedo and tac indicators were frozen at the time of inpact, looks like a 50mph collision with 4K RPM on the mill. Also looks like the cabin was intact with just the center and pass-side dash pushed back by the impact. Judging by the pristine white of the front right wheel inner barrel...

I don't believe there is such a part number. My R's splitter install was incomplete...no white plastic tabs. A local Ford parts professional showed me their parts page for the splitter with no separate part number listed for the installation hardware. Was told I'd need to order the complete...

Someone obviously failed to read the manual about how to remove the cover to get access to the keyhole. I'd be more interested in why someone had to open the door with the key. Don't be concerned about the paint matching.

For those who are eligible and haven't attended...definitely don't miss out on this opportunity! FWIW, I passed my 1-year eligibility window because of scheduling issues, but was able to get my name on a waiting list for a call if someone dropped out...someone dropped out and I got a call...

Boomboy, why care about modified non-R perfomance versus the R's? Have you attended the FPRS Track Attack? I had a Tech and found out quite quickly that I wanted an R after I attended. I didn't care about the performance comparisons. Mr. Pobst did a great job explaining the differences for...

eBay has a set of CF R wheels for $7,500. Buy the R. Get these wheels. Win, win!

It's an R. Who's gonna go thru the hassle to replace the entire interior (including the chassis plate), radiator opening, CF wing/aero, etc. on a non-R? Wheels shouldn't be a deal-breaker. You get a rare base R with aero, suspension tune and resonator delete. The R CF wheels can be added...

Sky, no need to test drive first. I bought my first GT350 sight-unseen. First Ford. Paid more than sticker. Zero regrets! Sold it and bought an R. Didn't drive the R first. These are awesome machines. Get one ASAP!

FoMoCo sold nearly 20M cars from 2015 to 2017, globally. The current GT350 build is insignificant.

I’m not afraid to use the CF wheels on the road. Neither was the prior owner. It’s just a car. I say, use the R as it was designed or you’ve missed the point. The wheels are extremely robust. I witnessed a repaired tire change by a DT tech who popped the rim many times with a metal bar trying to...

Torque’s correct w/r cost difference. I traded my “limp mode” in for an R...and payed more, but below new R MSRP. The two years I owned the Tech pack were awesome. Owning the R is incredible. It’s rare, performs on and off track and will command a premium resale price...forever. I don’t regret...

Thread hijack alert... There are very few GT350s out there so...it’s not difficult to understand why most dealerships have little working knowledge of our Shelbys. Even fewer are in the shop for warranty work. During my two oil line recalls and one tire swap on the CFs, I was always under the...

I never thought to pop the hood when I attended. It’ll be interesting to see how those engines fare over the years. Mine limited itself to 7,500 RPM during the final session. Fuel cutoff on the Kink straight was an unsettling feeling.

Not sure the cover is meant for outside/long-term use. A buddy had his indoor and always-covered 2017 Corvette’s wire harnesses devoured by rats. $14K later, it’s back in his shop sans cover, with Christmas tree lights constantly illuminated in the engine bay.

Look at any of the early Ford GT 350 promotional videos. Every shot I’ve seen of the motor shows both cylinder banks with a (pre-Ford Performance) oil catch can. Oil sent down the intake ultimately reduces engine power output and gunks up the intake.
