Hi Folks,
Wanted to start this thread to see if people have high-mileage GT350s and what their ownership has been like.
Mine is a 17' currently at 59K miles, bought it when it had 24K miles on it. I drive the crap out of it, and believe it or not, I did 35K miles in 18 months. Also, it took 2 months or more to replace many parts. I use it as my daily.
So far, I've had a new: Engine, transmission, AC unit, 2 alternators, belt tensioner, high-pressure AC lines, EVAP valve, 3 seat blowers (Heater & Cooled motors), new clutch (installed during engine replacement for peace of mind, factory one still worked, out of my own pocket), and various other small parts but all was covered under warranty and ESP I purchased.
Some mods I did: FP lowering springs, Resonator & Cat delete with x pipe and mid-pipes. Otherwise, it's bone stock.
I love this car, and it turns a lot of heads, partly because it looks good and also because it's crazy loud with a unique sound. It handles amazingly for what it is, and I find it not so compromised in ride quality on the streets down here in Toronto.
My ESP will be over at 60K miles, and the cost to renew it for another 19K miles is about $3800 USD. My gut tells me to invest in that for peace of mind and drive it less lol.
Any suggestions from someone on what to do moving forward? Should I keep it or be smart and sell it? I am 27 and don't know what life holds ahead.
