Thanks for watching! - Авто та транспорт
Am I the only one who is blown away at how fast everyone drives on the interstate in his area? He merges at like 85mph and he's merely going with the flow.
lmfaooo michigan drivers dgaf
Here in Texas we merge at 90+ 😂
As someone from his area, the speed limit or basic traffic laws don’t exist in this area😂
@@mistakes6796 same here in Wisconsin. Kinda scary ngl.
Even where I'm at North Carolina the speed limit is 70 on the highway is everyone's doing about 80 or 90.
This is one of those videos where you can tell he's smiling for the entire time, thanks again for bringing us along for the ride!
As a GT350 owner I can confirm this is true
@@AJGT350 as not an owner of a gt350r I can confirm this too
In my regular GT i was never smiling while driving
Straight concentrated german face all the way through
At the and i had a smile of releif :D
As a Nissan versa owner I can confirm this is true
uncle has a orange 350 and i can confirm it’s a badass ride
This is the mustang that will become that future classic and shoot up in value. Get them now before you can't afford them
I already can't afford them lmao
@@R-Sin facts LOL
@@R-Sin Did you hear they're gonna quit making the GT350? And the Bullet?
@@kylechellino2579 yeah I think they're making the Mach 1 again though
@@R-Sin Yep they are and they're making the GT500! That car is bad ass
IT HAS AN ACTUAL HANDBRAKE, NOT A BUTTON
Yeah, those buttons are whack and cost a lot to replace. Good luck releasing an electronic parking brake when your battery dies.
Kevin Norris yep, the most useless feature in modern cars.
@@kevinnorris6558 very true happen to my wife
Ew.
@@kennethcpz ew.what
The exhaust difference in normal and sport mode is crazy!
I jumped right to the driving..I just knew it was aftermarket
@@BigBlackClark That's the stock exhaust
thats how my 2020 Kia Soul gt turbo is. in normal mode its quiet and in sport mode is loud
@@BigBlackClark that's stock exhaust it has no resonators from factory
Ramp: 25mph
Him: lol no
lot of eople hate on mustangs but i absolutely love them. They come with a manual, rwd, pure engine sound, no unnecessary fake stuff and they're a really good example of good modern and fun car
This is my realistic dream car. Everything about this car is incredible. It’s amazing loud exhaust note, the driver focused cock pit, the perfect amount of power for fun without being too dangerous, and it already has a incredible driving experience stock. This is one of the only cars I absolutely love that I would be fine keeping it completely bone stock because it’s such a perfect car from the factory
Who needs speakers when you have an amazing 5.2l engine
Funny thing is the car has an awesome stereo system. Found that out a year after I bought it.
One of the greatest V8 ever crafted, a masterpiece of an engine
Since the legendary Flathead
Legendary oil burning and engine failure.
@@Airbag1010674I’d argue that plenty of high performance cars suffer from oil consumption and either engine failure or easily broken cars. How many Lamborghini, Ferrari, or other high performance cars make it past 50,000 miles without thousands of dollars in repair?
It's not the most reliable unfortunately.
It's a very feminine car but yeah it might be fun
Great video! Those tires will bald quickly, and once you get it sideways with traction control off, it's like a hockey puck on ice.
Can I have your mustang?
Yo Walter, you watch his channel too?? I love your videos!
I love your channel!!
Gawd damn I havent seen your channel in years
💯 like hockey and the cold tire like ice 🧊
I bought her! Because of your review! I really got lucky and found one that the dealer didn’t want to clobber me over the head for! What a machine! Thanks Joe! I’m looking forward to waking my neighbors on the weekend! You sold me!
I'm looking for one rn, just waiting for things to line up. This for sure sealed the deal until test drives happen
@@theninja224 there are some good deals right now as long as you dont want a heritage R. Black is the second most popular. i would go with a 19-20 for the gen2 engine if you can.
I’ll miss the GT350
It’s definitely a modern classic!
I won't miss it never getting rid of it haha.
Nice profile pic
@@joelramdhan405 lmao a bmw supwa
Driving such a beast must feel amazing with a manual transmission. It's crazy to me how you are so knowledgeable about every single car you drive.
It’s so annoying that they’re discontinuing these, no more manuals in Shelby cars.
Not in “ford performance” shelbys(as in one built in house by ford), but you can still get a manual in “real” shelbys(as in you send your regular gt to shelby headquarters in vegas for them to work their magic).
although i still may consider the new bronco with a manual, when my mustang is ready to be sold i probably will be switching to another car brand. ill probably be going with an import as they are still going strong with cars and manual transmissions.
get it while you can! before it turns into a classic sports car when we're all in our 50's.
Or just about any cars !!!
They can't anymore not if they don't want to be left behind in performance. Electric vehicles are already proving to be faster, and even in gas engines, the dual clutch automatics are faster. Manual is pretty much dead if you want the fastest. For fun driving and to feel like an actual man from your father/grandfather's era ya get an old manual no doubt. That feeling cannot be surpassed.
That exhaust one of the best sounding I’ve ever heard!
I fell in love with the 350R. Went and bought a brand new 2019 and I don't even know how to drive stick. But I'll say this one hell of a car to learn on. I only have 800 miles on it of full smiles and looks.
Truly something special
I learned in a 96 civic lol. One day I will own one of these.
That must be so much fun riding in a car that's that loud, let alone driving it
My experience owning a loud motorcycle: after a while, it gets tiring to have that much sound following you everywhere, and it immediately draws the attention of cops.
I like the 2 modes that the gt 350 r has. I like loud and nice exhaust dont get me wrong, but daily a loud car every day gets real tiring real fast
@@TTGamingTrinh ive heard from almost every owner of a GT350 say the never get sick of it.
I have cat deletes on mine. Makes it even louder in sport/track. In normal its barely noticeable. I've done conference calls in normal mode several times.
@@burgerbandit3646 you really don’t get tired it. The Voodoo sounds like nothing else. Worse case just close the exhaust flaps
God I love how firm that suspension tuning is. It doesn’t look overly stiff or brittle but is very, very firm. You FEEL the road in a GT350R.
We’re living during peak performance car folks...
Yes true, all going electric from here.
Car Story probably, it’s so tragic:(
Car Story so sad
@@CarStory People keep saying that but how are we going to make all the massive batteries for the stupid things when china is completely stripping africa of its cobalt and lithium
Hydrogen fuel cell powered cars are more likely than everything going electric
True true statement. Just bought a 2019 Grand Sport over the GT350. I thought the C7 a slightly better track car. That’s open to debate! Both phenomenal cars. Can’t beat the sound of the GT350.
I’m so sad
This is The last model year of the GT350 and GT350R
watchumean?
@@amirmanibmanampan159 www.caranddriver.com/news/amp34226316/ford-mustang-shelby-gt350-gt350r-dead/
@@JonathanGurgul that's heartbreaking
what about gt500? i think they should of went all out for the last 350r and give it awd
@@paladin3116 it’s a really bad idea, rwd is part of the fun.
My favorite modern muscle car by far!! I want it.
That’s coming from a JDM enthusiast too.
Thank you for making my day today and reminding me why I love this car so much!
This car may be brand new but it’s already a collectible classic.
Is the v6 a classic ? 🥺 I want my car to be special too 😂
Glad I have a piece of history. Smiling ear to ear when I drive my R.
Every time I get behind the wheel of my 350 I smile ear to ear. It's incredible. None of my other cars have done that to me.
if u had to sell it, would u?
@@draco2xx yes I would.
@@jayfromthebay9795 i have the 2021 mach 1 in fighter grey, how much value u think it will have in 3 yrs? im thinking about selling it in 3 yrs
@@draco2xx not sure
It’s amazing how well gt350’s have held their value
They will only go up as they stopped producing the car.
Didn't notice until now but I love the way this thing sounds on idle. So calming and soothing
I love your channel bro even if you're driving a boring car anything you upload Is a must watch.. keep It up!
- This is one car that music sound system test is not needed.
- Most fun car you have tested yet probably
I could watch this video on loop ALL DAY LONG! So sad they discontinued the 350/350R after 2020. Man that TREMEC is LIGHTNING and TheTopher is the perfect pilot for it! Thank you so much for bringing us this video!
Dream car right here! Also best sounding car in it’s price range!
Best sounding car in ANY price range!! 😄 Mine sounds better than my wife's $165k Maserati GranTurismo! And her car sounds good!
Same! Watching this video just makes me so excited! I can’t wait until I get one
One of the best sounding v8’s ever. Period.
The Topher says: " I want an Autobahn now"!!!!!! Sérgio - Brazil
GT350R sounds amazing
This is like, such an awesome channel. I love every single bit of it
Mopar guy here, but man I do love the shelbys!! 🇺🇸
This car is sensational. the best mustang ever.thanks for this great content Topher
great video, great shifting and i love that u used all six gears for the sake of showing it. i saw so many POV videos and all they use is up to 4th gear.
TheTopher deserves to have an Autobahn with these cars!!!
It sucks that this is the last year of this legend but now it’s a classic and it will get a lot more respect and attention.
Really dig your videos man! 👌👍. Nice watching a car preview/Review with a POV video
I got goosebumps from those downshifts..
LOVE the straight shift. I'm sold.
This R version is s awesome but I would definitely get the regular 350 because I'd be so paranoid about damaging those carbon wheels.
More like someone stealing them.LOL.
I’ve seen ppl buy the R, put different wheels on them and keep the carbon ones in the garage
Facts
@@MrAdrian13 that’s what I would do.
For me, it just came down to wanting the availability of the rear seats. It's essentially the same car at the end of the day with some minor differences. Since I don't track cars anymore, it just didn't make sense to spend the extra $$ on the R.
The sound is so amazing I could drive this in a school zone and just be completely in Bliss from the sound
One of the greatest cars ever made!
One of my favorite channels on UA-cam great videos
I am a chevy guy but these Shelby Mustangs are amazing! The sounds is incredible.
The way it barks when you down shift 😍
Always enjoyed your reviews, it's just that sound, arrghh so hypnotic. Any other?
This car is what’s motivating me through college
AYOO🔊 topher, I just finished watching the mclaren video, and I almost clicked out the vid.....don’t go away plzz. Keep up the work
I drive a Hellcat and I never turn on the radio. Nothing better to listen to than horsepower.
Great video! Well shot and very informative.
Just awesome. Can't wait for a GT500 review. Need to watch this over with headphones
This is my favorite car!💖 I am a 58 years old woman and I didn't drive since I moved to the States in 2019. I am from France and when I was there, I owned a Hyundai Tiburon, I loved her so much and together we had good time driving on highway, 112mph didn't scare me, it was so good. I miss her a lot. Thanks for this video that reminded me how good it was to drive a nice car.😢😢
the fact that you have to rev it up to 8200 rpm in order to stay in the power band makes this mustang more race-car like over the gt500. and that flat-pane, purr-noise when going up the revs around 3k rpms sounds sweet.
Manual...yet another manual. Damn good stuff there man.
The only way this baby comes!
A car that i’ll never own especially now that it’s its last year 😢 GT350/R is gonna be a classic!
Same😔
why not? 350 non rs used go for 50k work hard! you can still get it
@@matt-ti9ed im just not in a position to buy a 50-60k rare car. I’d be too afraid to use it as a daily driver 😬 I’m getting a GT soon though!
@@dondeezy agreed, price is overhyped, reliability is terrible, power is so so, 60K for a mustang, big no no, get a GT and modify it, still cheap than the shelby but beat the shelby
@@dondeezy Used GT350s are, like, $45,000. Are you getting a basement-trim GT or something?
That sound, amazing!
Great video, good vocabulary ! I enjoyed this video!
Wow, a driver knows how to drive. Was a pleasure to watch!!
It’s great to see my favorite car that was in the area that I live in!
I've got a 2019 GT350R! I am really enjoying the heck out of it!
Awesome video, man. This thing looks like a TON of fun.
Welp, better finish school and snag one of these up!!!
Michigan looks so peaceful!
This is one car that I love that’s a very unique car
I was never a mustang person, but damn do they have amazing sounding motors...especially this 5.2. Eargasm to the max!
She sounds soooo good!
i do not own a gt350r but i do own a regular one, bought it in september of last year, it is the last of the three cars i have always wanted that i was deadset on owning before 30, the first was a focus rs and the second was a single cab srt10. I love my gt350 i wasnt really able to drive it very much last year cause i live in southern saskatchewan so winter is crazy, so its been in storage until just last week when it finally decided to be spring/summer and its been awesome. another thing to note about the transmission is that it is AMAZING both with power holding if you want to add forced induction, but also in just raw feel, it is a MASSIVELY better 6 speed manual than the regular gt's manual, it is so tight its awesome
Raitis Rides has his R in the same exact spec (Heritage Package with the Wimbledon White and blue stripes)
Keep it up! I will just live varcariously through you. Still sad you sold the brz
Awesome video! The difference between quiet and loud mode is incredible. I heard that they put a bigger power steering motor on the 2020 GT350 from the GT500? I’ve read that the older model years had more steering feel because of this.
This is by far the best mustang ford has ever built!!! Twice as good as the new GT500!! THE ONLY MUSTANG I WOULD OWN!!!
I love this car so much, I've loved it ever since the day it was released. This is literally my dream mustang, I would love to own one or at least go for a ride in one!
The downshifting!!! OMG 😍
People that haven't owned or driven one don't understand. I've owned a stage 1 tuned Evo IX, a completely modded 370z, two V8 M3's, a stage 1 tuned F80 M3 with 550hp, and a 997.2 Carrera S. When I traded the Porsche for a 2017 GT350 it was the best thing I ever did. I've always wanted one from day one but had no idea it would become my favorite car of all time. I NEVER get bored behind the wheel of my GT350. Even the sound in my wife's Maserati GT Sport is no comparison to the GT350. IMO, the ONLY thing Ford missed the boat on with the GT350 was not including rev-matching.
My dream car. Thanks for sharing
great channel and videos !!!
Love this ride, if you were in germany, this gets more head turners, than BMW, Audi or mercedes
Best sounding v8 hands down!
i would let my ears marinate in those downshifts for the rest of my life!! so good!!
I have never been a fan of the Mustang except for the old 5.0 Foxbody Mustangs when law enforcement used to drive them but I really want the GT350.
I love this car! those Michelin tires I know will set you back some nice piece of change. I know I'll be at my local tire shop at least every 5k or less miles...with me racing and driving hard from time to time LOL!
I love ❤️ ford Mustang
love this car man! I have #235 heritage in the collection! best drive I have
Great vid. Subbed.
What a lovely lovely watch!!
Unbelievable video! Ty
I have the same Heritage model in my garage. It may not be the fastest but it certainly it’s very fun. Smiles per miles for sure. The only drawback. Here in TX people give me looks that could kill just driving at speed limits and even my own neighborhood.
Dream car since 2015, soon I will own one
Amazing work. You were born to do this.
I’ve had a ride in one of these things and you’d be surprised how fast this thing will whip around a street corner
What an absolute monster.
My dream car, for sure.
Always been my dream car
Hey man, dope video. As someone else with a GT350, I’d like to know how you filmed your POV. It was super clean, did you just head mount a GoPro?
