I think the vents [MENTION=22202]machsmith[/MENTION] is taking about, or at least the ones I am, are not the current vent on the side of the 350 but the vents we’ve seen or think we’ve seen on top of the fender

I'm pretty sure it's to reduce turbulent drag. Not improve stability.
No they are to pull heat from engine bay and brakes. A ton comes out of there, and the air passing around fender pulls it out with the small pressure delta it creates. I almost burned my hand when I got out of driving one for a couple hours and had my hand a few inches away. Very hot.

I like to disassemble things.
My GT350 with R splitter and R style spoiler.

I don't believe this is the current GT350:

1) Hood bulge is significantly larger
2) Lower side cooling vents on grill are much larger - inner sides point towards the centerline of the car, unlike the GT350, which point towards to sides of car
3) Side view mirrors appear much smaller
4) Edge of upper grill opening is sharp, GT350 is blunt.
5) Body line on hood from A pillar to upper/inner corner of headlight is missing
6) Does not appear to have lowered front grill
You got X-ray vision or something. Not sure how you’re seeing all that. I think the cover is just made of different material and not giving a good reference.

But with that said, and recognizing potential supernatural Zombo powers, can I have six numbers for the lottery? :)

I actually did mean the ones on the current GT350, but I for sure did try to spot any on the upper front quarters. I'll be upset if they didn't actually make production :(

You're probably right, but this is what I see.

Sorry. Misinterpreted.

I am with you 100% on the “shark fins” or whatever they’re called. I want those
