I know right, mine sould angry driving down the Autobahn srceaming "get out of my way" to slow cars infront of me.
Me too! I wouldn't want a manual in my Raptor.
Oooooooohhhhhhh... then that is a problem. The auto was only a shade quicker?... you can have the auto.
Overall, my Race Red paint is pretty good. There are a few places where there is some underlying blotchyness, which can only be seen in direct sunlight. In one location on the hood, I can see grinding marks under the paint? I'm OK with it; like my wife always says: "I know what I was marrying".
I too was in the market for a GT350 last year. I was actually pretty close on a 2017. I don't want my posts here to be misconstrued as just another trolling troublemaker. I've had a taste of them all, and am a fan of the GT350 like you guys. But where I break with many here is in thinking the base car or the R are so good they are worth more than msrp. I've never paid sticker and don't plan to. I also can't understand how some folks absolutely cannot give credit where it's due. It's a fact that the R loses to the ZL1 in every performance metric. And it costs less! Me stating that fact should not spur any combative comments or any other senseless rhetoric. I love talking cars with people. We don't always have to see eye to eye, but when the responses get childish, I can go there too. But i mean no harm here. I understand the draw to the Shelby. But for me, after considering it, and now owning a ZL1 auto, I'm glad I chose the Camaro. This is a new level for Camaro just like the 350 is a new level for Mustang.
You're the guy whose R was in PP001's post a while back right? I've met him before. Hopefully he'll allow my ZL1 at his house soon. The auto has rev match too.
When a Chevy guy comes on my Ford web site just to put down my Ford and say that his Chevy is better - he would be really dumb to think I'm going to be all roses and sunshine.
You're right. But thankfully the aren't.
Once again. I frequent Dodge, Ford, and Chevy forums. In the last 3 years I've had them all. And you know what's crazy. They were all great cars. Neither was junk compared to the other. Neither lived in the repair shop. Neither left me stranded. I read threads here all the time. Do I randomly chime in to talk GT350 competitors? No. But when I see a thread comparing the mighty R to my ZL1 (I've seen the video, too), I figure that's grounds to chime in, especially when the result was a little questionable in my opinion. Some of you guys could stand to lighten up a little. We're all driving cars that are better because of this friendly competition. The Halo Mustangs and Camaros no longer have to described as "good for the money". They're now legit world beating sports cars. Don't know about you, but I'm glad all 3 of the Big 3 have products to talk about, and not just one. Enjoy the times. Just don't line up with any ZL1's while doing so. Lol.
I could not agree more! I have not owned a ZL1 but does a Supercharged 700 RWHP C7 count? ;) I also had a 17 GT350 and now a Challenger Hellcat. All three cars are amazing cars. Growing up in the mid 70's and 80's I never imagined we would ever see powerful American cars again.
It's a great time for us car guys indeed. Exactly why I cruise the forums.
