I won't speak for most GT350 owners, but I am not getting a GT350 because of it's 0-60 time. I am also not getting it for track use only. I want one, well, because it's a "Shelby GT350". The looks, the power, the handling, the exhaust sound, the "specialness", etc. That's why I want one. It's just a totally different "class" of car than the 5.0. But that's just my 2c.I personally wouldn't get one over a GT PP due to the minimal difference in 0-60 times for the extra cost. But if you're going to track it, then yes.
I suggest and hope that regardless of whether you get the GT350 or not, that you take your high-performance street car to the track at least once, preferably a few or more times, for the following reasons:Will be a street car only. I’ve had a 2011 GT...horrible suspension, very soft. Last one was a 2017 GT with PP. better, but still sloppy. Is the GT350 the bomb or William I still need to modify to make it feel solid, without corner lean and vertical movements?
Wait, you already have a '19 PP2? Are you trading that in for the GT350?Will be a street car only. I’ve had a 2011 GT...horrible suspension, very soft.

It's better and different. But when you can get a GT rocket for low $30s (and yes, they sound awesome stock), spending an extra $30K on a GT 350 isn't appetizing to many. And I may be in the minority but as good as the GT 350 sounds, I think the exhaust too loud and would be annoying after awhile. That how loud exhausts usually work.I won't speak for most GT350 owners, but I am not getting a GT350 because of it's 0-60 time. I am also not getting it for track use only.
