Dropped a valve last summer at Limerock. AAA got me home at no cost (under 100 miles).
This is one of the things that keeps me from going to tracks that are farther away. Good point above though; the one time cost of a long tow home is still significantly less than owning the gear to tow to...
The actual Shelby name doesn't do anything for me (though I do like the logo on the merch).
Besides the car being exactly what I want, I'll admit that owning the "best" mustang has an intrinsic value to me. I had a GT350 and went up to the GT350R mostly for the performance, but part of me likes...
Admittedly didn't read 10 pages of this thread, but I'm seeing the same. Price of RT660's went from $335 a tire in 2021 to $386 in 2022 to $454 last week (305/30/19). I've gotten good deals on Cup2 takeoffs from the new Mach1's (average $900 for a set of tires with a couple hundred miles), but...
I'll be at Thunderbolt on 4/8.
I've probably done 10-12 total days between Thunder/Lightning over the last 3 seasons.
EDIT: Just realized I responded to one of your threads last fall to meet up for track days this season. I think unfortunately 4/8 is sold out, but shoot me a PM, I'm sure I'll...
Fully covered by warranty, $0 out of pocket.
FWIW, the first dealership I took it to tried get out of working on it, but then I brought it to a larger dealership with Shelby mechanics and they were amazing to deal with. Whole process from diagnostic to new engine took ~10 days. New motor has...
I had a 2018 350 that I bought with 1,200 miles on it. Did 12 HPDE's over 3 years, zero issues. Traded it in at 7,500 miles on a 2020 GT350R with 4,900 miles. Dropped a valve on the 2020 at my second HPDE (motor replaced under 3/36 warranty and I also have the ESP through 2030).
Posting about...
I just did NJMP twice with Moe HPDE in the last month, that's a good group. I've also gone with TrackXperienZ, Mass tuning (though not NJMP) and S2K takeover.
I'll shoot you a message coming into next season, always on the lookout for more GT350's who track.
OEM recaro seats from a GT350R. Seats are in very good condition with no wear on the bolsters. I bought these from The Parts Farm in 2022 and they came from a 2018 with 18K miles. I put another 1k miles on them, but recently sold the car they were in. Not willing to ship at this time, but will...
Looking to buy a red Schroth quick fit 4pt harness. Willing to purchase both drivers and passenger, but mainly looking for driver side.
Let me know if anyone can help!
As someone who's been shopping for ~2 months, prices are definitely rising and it's to the point now where there isn't much of a gap between years. At NY area dealers, '16's are in the 48-50K range while '18s are in the $53-55K range. For such a small spread, i opted to go with a newer car, and...
The coverage is cheaper for newer cars so that's the benefit. You'll "waste" the time either way (if you buy a 7 year plan immediately, or in 2023, you're still only covered to 2027), but the difference is if you buy the plan now and sell the car in 2023, you would have gotten no value.
Looking to buy a 2017 or 2018 GT350, must have the leather seats (i.e. no recaro's). Not looking for an R.
Flexible on colors, strong preference towards the grays or blues. Cash in hand, ready to buy immediately. Willing to travel a reasonable distance for the right car.
