Added another Shelby to the Garage 👍👍

[ClarksGT350]

Well after much back and forth decided to purchase a GT500. Found a fair price finally on a 2020 CFTP painted stripes Ford Performance blue car with 2k miles.
Luckily it has already been full body PPF and ceramic coated. Car literally was ready to be enjoyed.
It sits next to my Avalanche Grey 2017 GT350 that’s a Fathouse 600hp car.

After driving both back to back I can honestly say that you can’t have one over the other. The only Right answer is to have both!
they are completely different driving experiences in every way. Both being incredible in its own right.

I am a 350 guy at heart and lean towards the naturally aspirated high revving drivers car.
The 500 is more sophisticated and obviously a powerhouse. It’s just what you’re in the mood for. Neither disappoint in any way for me.
Im thrilled with how it worked out and blessed to be able to enjoy and share both with my fiends and family.
Plans for the CFTP are to enjoy but not put a ton of miles on. rips around town and some rallies.
Future plans for the GT350 are to finally start doing some track days With it this summer.
Next Goal is to add either a GT350R or 2000 cobra R in the garage as an occasional fun collector piece.

Yeah, doesn't really make sense for them to continue, when they stay covered up on higher power builds. Iirc the '600r' was headers and e85. (Correct me if I'm wrong). It wasn't cheap for what you were getting. So, I'm sure it wasn't extremely popular.

 

[ClarksGT350]

Yes the 600R package was titanium wrapped stainless works headers, JLT intake, and 93/E85 tune.
I also did their custom coolant tank for visual improvement.

I’ll probably do the coolant tank to the GT500 also. Stock one is an eye soar.

Beautiful car.
Congrats.

Found some pics. I had them installed back in May 2019.
car has been on E since then. Always runs perfectly. Sounds insane. the car is perfection.

I totally agree with you. This car is really cool
