After owning the R for a year and 3ish months I hit the 20,000 mark on the way to work this morning. Blow is whats been good and bad.
Disclaimer: I've daily driven the R since I bought it new at the end of September of last year. It's been my only car, besides borrowing the girlfriends Focus...
This doesn't necessarily pertain to the Forum but it does have my 350R in it so I figured it'd be ok. Anyway, I know the possibility of getting one is very very very slim but it was fun making the video anyway. Hope you enjoy!
At the end of September I finally bought a new 2017 350R. I've been daily driving it since. Yesterday I surpassed 15,000 miles, had 12 miles on it. Here's a list of the good and the bad along the way.
After 3,000 miles I put a set of 6grs and Hankook Ventus v12s on to make daily driving a bit...
Went for a spirited drive today. After about 20 minutes I noticed it was right at 300 degrees. Car is a 350R and the outside temp was about 89. Seems like it shouldn't be running this hot. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Trying to remove the wheel well liner so I can get access to the side marker lights without having to remove the splitter. The last two plastic screw looking things by the brake duct coolers won't come off. Anyone have any luck getting them off?
Couple friends and I went for a small drive after Cars and Coffee. The Viper was previously owned by Saabkyle (youtuber) Anyway, it was a great time.

So a couple days ago I hit the 10,000 mark on my R. I've been daily driving it since the end of September of last year. After getting new wheels and tires around the 3k mark to make it easier for everyday use, I can say without a doubt, you can totally daily a R with much ease. (depending on...
So I bought my car 700 miles away. At the time I didn't notice the gap as much as i do now. I took it to my local dealer and they said they'd have to charge me for it and buy a new splitter. I'm not taking it back to Texas to get the splitter fixed. What can I do to fix it? Mind you I don't have...
"Roast em" "Light em up" "Peel Out"
All of these are things I hear on a weekly basis. About a half hour ago I was coming out of the gas station I go to quite frequently, cause you know low MPG probs, and this, well, young woman I wouldn't bring home to mom yells at me "Light em up when you...
Got a lead on a lightning blue 350R for 5k over in Texas. From speaking with him it seems negotiable.
Specs:
Lightning blue
No stripes
Electronics package
Car cover (I think)
He said they also might have a black 18 350R which he is checking for currently.
Shoot me a PM if interested...
Wanted to wish you all a happy and healthy Thanksgiving. If you're traveling please be safe and watchout for all those crazy drivers out there, and the Five 0.
Finally got the wheels on.
Spec:
305 all around
Black
Hankook Ventus V12
Car was paint corrected, cquartz, and clearbrad. I even like how the window banner looks with the color combo. Too bad a screwed up putting it on.
Went to a car meet last night, meet up with MAV and saw this (Not my pictures) 2017 GT350 with a ton of modifications.
Here's the parts list that I can remember:
Vortech stage 3 supercharger
Nitrous Oxide (N20)
Signature wheels (305 front 325 rear) on Hankook Ventus V12s
Kooks headers
Braum...
This is basically a video of how I obtained my R, why I didn't chose some of the other cars I was looking at, and my plans for the car. Hope y'all enjoy and please leave me some notes on how I can better my videos. Thanks guys.

I'm about to do my first oil change and need a bit of advise. I used Mobil 1 in the last 350 but I want to double check before I buy 30 quarts of the stuff. Mobil 1 5w50 $5.99 a quart. Should I use this oil?
The Backstory
February 22nd 2015 I picked up a 2016 Tech Pack that I ordered six months in advance. September 11th 2016, in a parking lot in North Little Rock my car was backed into resulting in a new front bumper, hood, and headlight. The ass who did it didn't even stick around. After that I...
I can no longer keep this a secret. After a year of looking, 3 dealers screwing me over on an allocation, multiple people saying that getting a R for a reasonable price won't happen, yes I was one of those people, I finally found my R. I was looking on the interwebs just for fun and came across...
