I traded the 350 for a 2019 911 C4S, with a perfect build sheet and 13K miles. With Porsche CPO two year no mileage limit and prepaid maintenance. It’s at Porsche of Silver Spring MD. Got 47k for it with almost 50k miles.

The PDK (aka “Porsche-Doppelkupplungsgetriebe”) is an awesome transmission… I have it in my Cayman.
I prefer the manual in my Shelby over the PDK only because I enjoy rowing the gears. The German gear changer is a game changer when it comes to performance, but I get bored with the PDK…. Just me!

It’s a manual 7 speed, which is really hard to find. Has the PDDC too, it stays flat and the rear axle steering is amazing, it’s going to take a while to calibrate my brain to it. I’ve not had it out much though as I just got it yesterday and I had to get DC inspection done and go back to give them a check for down payment. Tomorrow I’ll go hit some back roads but with the remains of the hurricane hitting the region, my favorite roads might be flooded a bit and have debris on them.

You will love the handling Robert… I drove one of these at the Atlanta Porsche Experience…. The handling was phenomenal.
You may miss the exhaust note of the VooDoo…. But hopefully the rest of the Porsche thrills out-weigh the thrill of the Voodoo… enjoy my friend!

It was time to move on, and I wanted an AWD car. I have a new 350 oil filter if anyone wants it in the DC area. I don’t know if they are in supply/stock now.

Sorry to see you go. I don't know how anyone can really "move on" from the 350. it's such a unique car and difficult to replicate the experience. I do find myself longing for another convertible or to venture down another road vehicle wise, but just can't part with it. Hoping to afford to keep the Shelby and eventually get something else. I understand though that everyone's situation is different. I'm sure you will enjoy the Porsche; they are great cars.

Installed a Natural Gas powered heater for the cold wisconsin winters. Looking forward to being able to work in the garage this fall/winter and actually do some maintenance/cleanup on the Shelby.
