The GT350 entire front chassis is different from the S550, the only thing it shares is the headlights (which sit 2 inches lower in the GT350). There is nothing you can bolt on from a parts catalogue to replicate this.
I order Zaino brand "Show Car Polish For Clear Coated Finishes" and apply after washing and then buff with 100% cotton. I was at a Porsche Armada event yesterday and someone asked if my 911 had been recently painted...
The new Cayman's are very pretty cars, but you will be much more entertained in the GT350 i'd imagine. I spent all day yesterday driving my 997S, it was fun. Then I got into my GT350 - it felt like a hypercar in comparison.
Bottom line - if you want a track capable sports coupe with a flat plane crank V8/exotic specs you can either hand over $200,000+ for a Ferrari/Mclaren or you can go with $60,000 for the Shelby. There is nothing in the five figure even low six figures that can compare to these specs. Until...
There's the occasional msrp - 5k adm deal - but most are getting worse actually. The ADM's from 6 months ago is what was asked before the publications got a hold of the car. The GT350 has swept up almost every automotive award possible beating Porsche, Ferrari etc - the demand has only...
I have documented proof it is in fact evil sometimes. On rennlist (ironic) one member stated that if someone pisses him off by parking too close to his beater VW daily he purposely slams his door into the car next to him to leave a ding and "teach them a lesson." Disgusting.
Local paintless dent removal guy told me he sees the most dings on Porsches. Funny how that works. If you give them a chance to put a ding in your trophy the scum will do it - watch out!
I appreciate that - looks like weather is rolling in up there next weekend so going to have to delay the trip. Never been to Nashville but i've heard great things. Super excited.
Any cool museums or music/food spots you guys recommend in town? I took the Boss 302 Laguna Seca to Memphis last...
I had a Boss 302 Laguna Seca and I did the Track Attack school and then went nuts hitting every track in the SE multiple times. It was a great three years. I sold the Boss 302 last August after my order for a Shelby GT350 was locked in. I had the GT350 on the track at NOLA Motorsport 2 weeks...
Sounds like a nasty old hag - just be happy you're not miserable like her. A few months back I was driving my 911 and someone was blocking the left lane not letting people pass for miles. At the stoplight I told him what I thought of his driving and he yelled back "YOU RICH ASSHOLE!" :lol...
Driving a GT Mustang to get a feel for the Shelby GT350 is like driving a base Porsche Carrera to get a feel for the GT3 RS. No comparison.
The only thing you will get from that test drive is the size of the car (except the entire front chassis of the GT350 is reworked and much wider than the...
