2019 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350
Hi all, just purchased a 2019 GT350 from a dealer in Ohio. I bought it without inspecting it and had it shipped. With just 5,000 miles it looks great.

I noticed some weird parts in the car. Can you help me understand what these are for?

1.) the air filter is blue, not yellow.
2.) what are the camber plates for? I have the track pack, so why would someone add these?
3.) the oil catch can isnā€™t attached to anything. Shouldnā€™t that be attached to a hard point?
4.) under the car there are long red brackets on the outside of the chassis. Iā€™ll get a pic later.
5.) whatā€™s the rear spings part number? I think mine says cm-5560-wm
6.) my exhaust is very loud. I think the center exhaust has been cut out or something.

Iā€™ll put it on my life this weekend and poke around some more.

why would someone spend so much effort and money and then sell it? Weird.

1.) the air filter is blue, not yellow. - It was changed
2.) what are the camber plates for? I have the track pack, so why would someone add these? - required in many cases to achieve optimal track alignment
3.) the oil catch can isnā€™t attached to anything. Shouldnā€™t that be attached to a hard point? JLT just kinda hangs there...I don't like that about it.
4.) under the car there are long red brackets on the outside of the chassis. Iā€™ll get a pic later. Likely jacking rails..some people claim stiffness but these cars are very stiff already - it's of rbeing able to jack the car up from the sides at any point AND not crushing the pinch welds.
5.) whatā€™s the rear spings part number? I think mine says cm-5560-wm - not sure
6.) my exhaust is very loud. I think the center exhaust has been cut out or something. very common modification that removed the resonators, like the GT350R comes from the factory.

1.) the air filter is blue, not yellow. much better than the paper OEM yellow, you have the airaid blue reusable filter. nice bonus for you.
2.) what are the camber plates for? I have the track pack, so why would someone add these? looks like the MM caster camber plates. gives you adjustment for both.
3.) the oil catch can isnā€™t attached to anything. Shouldnā€™t that be attached to a hard point? that's how the JLT is, it's fine and no problems at all for me after 9k miles.
4.) under the car there are long red brackets on the outside of the chassis. Iā€™ll get a pic later. BMR jacking rails, another nice bonus for you. makes jacking up the car so nice.
5.) whatā€™s the rear spings part number? I think mine says cm-5560-wm not sure.
6.) my exhaust is very loud. I think the center exhaust has been cut out or something. probably resonator delete.

Iā€™ll put it on my life this weekend and poke around some more.

Please excuse the messy garage. I have another building to store it in thatā€™s much cleaner.

Love my a Tesla. We just completed a 1,500 mile road trip in the model Y and it was a fantastic trip. Didnā€™t pay a dime for charging because we had some free Supercharger miles and tons of places have free charging.

Check out these pictures. I had a friend bring his Porsche 911 turbo and a Supra over to our new barn for a photo shoot. I will get the GT350 over there this weekend, clean her up, and take more pics of all the cars together. Including the Tesla! Ha ha

There's only 1 color, right?
