I can’t believe this thread exists.

From a roll I was closer than I thought I’d be to a hellcat. When he passed me I realized he had temp tags.. probably wasn’t even pushing it.. was still walking me. I also walked down a couple liter bikes once...when I caught them at the top of 5th one of them looked back and I realized they...

+20k miles. No issues with the 2062. I can spare one or 2 I guess. But probably not worth it to ship vs waiting for them to come in stock... or the new one.

If only they’d come back out with Avalanche Gray. I’d order another R today.

Figure out how to afford it comfortably then decide if you still want it. These cars will be around for awhile.

Unless there’s an actual issue, running these cars hard doesn’t cause excessive consumption necessarily. Riding the crackle, low load high rpm etc that shoots it out the tailpipes. And, since the exhaust sounds so amazing on any solid rev matched downshift and when you lift etc.. But yeah...

Fwiw I considered picking up a GT350 to daily and keep the R for the longhaul.. then I realized the depreciation difference makes a 2nd R make more sense (lookin at you @Tomster ).. then I realized I can just drive the crap out of my current R and find a low mileage garage queen later if I want...

I really want those two fronts. Setting reminder to check back with you in a couple mos.

I agree with the abnormal procedure for something so routine with this vehicle. I think that may be a reason why so many people are being caught out with starvation etc. For the most part the people buying these vehicles have checked the oil in a car before and prior common experiences lend to...

What the other guy said about hot vs cold. Be careful with consistency when checking the oil. I try to always check it in the same location (same spot at my home) to ensure consistent readings. Also per manual and as you’ve now discovered - wait 15min before checking. A quick check when cold...

Almost every car will depreciate. Cheap mustang bits or expensive Mercedes bits.. We can agree to generally disagree on the premise that one shouldn’t own a thing that isn’t going to be utilized the way it was meant to be used. For starters - the GT350R is a street car that you can track. So...

Where did this idea that buying a GT350 and not tracking it was some dumb move? Do all Ferrari owners track their cars? Porsche? Miata? Not sure I agree with the logic coming from many here, but opinions yield diversity so - I digress. That said - 2000 miles in 3 months in a Mustang GT...

I see a recurring line of reasoning that goes something like: "The GT350 has less low end torque...by the time I get into the power band I'm over the speed limit..." If you're worried about speed limits (nothing wrong with that) then why do you care about a torque difference between two 4-500HP...

Only you can decide what’s worth your money. The GT350 is/was worth mine. You’ll need to check oil obsessively. And it takes 10 quarts of relatively expensive 50 weight that can only be sourced from a few different manufacturers. Because it’s such a heavy weight oil you’ll never get it warm...

Thanks! Looks good. How much does it weigh? This one: https://andersoncomposites.com/collections/all/products/2015-2017-mustang-double-sided-carbon-fiber-gt350-stylehood is closest I found on your site. Doesn’t have the pins. Says they’re recommended etc. also says install might require...

Soap and water here.

Perhaps you should've revisited how questions work prior to blessing me with the magnificent opinion that I should gamble my safety on your word that someone else's repair to my vehicle will be sufficient -- when I didn't ask that in the first place.

*looks at the thread title* Didn’t ask anyone’s opinion about whether I should repair it. Thanks tho. Peace.

There's no need to get into an argument with you about it. You (nor I) haven't a clue what "would" happen... which is the point - with the structural integrity compromised there's a risk component that doesn't exist otherwise. How you would address that risk is your own decision - I've clearly...

Corvettes are fiberglass, not carbon fiber. And no, I wouldn’t be sitting on it - the amount of force/pressure created by drag at triple digit speeds is the concern with regard to structural integrity. Would you bet your life on it?
