A Chevrolet Dealer in New Orleans just gave me 47k on trade in for my 2016 GT350 Track Pack (19,889 miles). Feel like that was a very generous offer now.
100% Agree. Let me reiterate that my engine, suspension and transmission put up with serious abuse. I did not drive this car like most of you I see on the road crusing along or at the CarsnCoffee. My car spent it's entire 19,000 miles screaming to 8,250rpm once warmed up, every shift I was...
Thermostat, Alternator, Air Conditioning and coilpacks all had to be replaced under warranty. My car was one of the first 300 built so the quirks are not surprising but I found them to be unsettling all added up. Overall those 19,000 miles were among the greatest driving experiences of my life...
That's exactly what I thought. I raced the living shit out of my GT350 19,987 of the hardest miles I have ever driven in my life. Both on and off the track. After the initial break in period was over my GT350 stayed at 5000-8,250rpm every single day for 2 straight years.
Having said that...
How so? The FPC motor was used to win the 2016 CTSC Championship, seemed to hold up just fine throughout the season....you can watch every race full broadcast on the IMSA Youtube channel.
Worth a watch if you haven't, at the very least just to hear that sweet engine sing.
I love the sound as it's a unique combination of American Muscle and Exotic FPC - makes for a very special ownership experience especially from 5000-8250rpm, quite a rush.
I put nearly 20,000 miles on a GT350 with resonators pulled (same as R). If I didn't want to hear it I could turn it off...
I bought a brand new Shelby GT500 off the showroom floor in 2007, I had never driven a manual and couldn't even drive it out of the lot after purchase. I learned after about a day.
When a person starts off their opinion by saying "real talk" you know to immediately ignore everything that follows.
OP don't rely on people's generosity or parking manners - they will destroy your car at some point, you need to bribe your way into the corner spot. Also off topic but fact...
I paid money for a GT350 mug through someone who knows a dealer who just got them. It was delivered and I just got my hands on it - possibly the greatest coffee mug I have ever seen. It says S H E L B Y on the other side also - best 30 bucks I spent this year.
