    The problem with the GT350 isn't the car. (which is awesome). It's the dealers and trying to mark up the car to ruin it.

    Back when I was too poor to afford it I dreamed of getting a 302 to replace my '07 GT. I was going to retire it as a daily driver last fall and drop some dough on a luxury sedan. Life happens and some things are too precious to put in the back seat of a Mustang.
    Then, a dark and stormy night coupled with a few deer made me realize I don't need some expensive car to haul people in, but I did need a weekend toy. I took delivery of my competition orange '16 GT350 track package in March and your feelings about the car mimic mine. It is very special and each time I lay down on the throttle reminds that at heart, I'm really just a 6'2" child. I never go a minute in it without smiling.
    Great video guys, and to those who have the means to get one, you won't be disappointed when you do.

      wait another year when they cannot make the car payments ,the used market has alot of gt 350 already on it that are NOT selling. Sure you can put your car up for sale and ask 50000 but if is does not sell and the payment book is still there ,then what. I will buy one ,but I not get sucked in like the dealers do to people, who just GOTTA have it. Fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me.I bought my boss USED ,got a fair deal Still it has downfalls like a cheap chinese transmission ,cheesy radio, recaro,seat cloth cheap. Sorry for the person who bought it new and paid dealer markup ,just like their doing to the gt 350 buyers. I would be embarrassed to admit I paid over sticker for a car. Its just a car a piece of metal The shelby does not have a much better transmission from what I read as I was looking to put one in my boss but I went with the magnum xl.

I thought I was going to be let down by all the hype like I was with the Gt.. No way.. It's amazing.. It crawls over the pavement at any speed. Steering and stability is great. Really impressed... Though.. It vibrates more, doesn't feel noticably faster in a straight line than the Gt with boltons.

    From the FPC engine to the active magnetic ride to the IRS, the GT350 is a fantastic car. Sadly though, I cannot afford to own one and risk it on a track. For those of you watching this video and you own a Boss 302 or 2011+ GT, do your self a HUGE favor and look into a Cortex Racing Watts link (there are other brands as well). I'm not saying that the guys in the video would like the Boss more than the GT350 if the Boss had a watts link, however, installing this relatively inexpensive ($990ish) mod will completely change the handling characteristics of any S197. Great video guys and I'm jelly of anyone who gets to drive a "tree-fiddy" on a track!

    The real question to ask and you guys kind of hinted at it at the end of this video is this.... Is the Mustang GT350 10 grand better than a used Boss 302? You can pick up a REALLY low mileage one owner Boss for 40k. Higher mileage ones are selling for 30-35k so you are actually talking closer to a 20k gap between the two. It may be worth 10k more but is it worth 20k more? The odd man out that you didn't talk about was the Boss 302 Laguna Seca which is running 45-50k. I think that is the car that should see the biggest decline from its rather lofty current pricing. GREAT video and a comparison that was LONG overdue that I do not think anyone else has done. :)

    I can definitely see how someone might say the Boss is still their favorite Mustang. It seems like it was the last of the original DNA. When you drove it you could easily say "yeah, this feels like a modern version of my dad's 70 Boss 302" but then the GT350 just ditches all of the DNA and starts fresh and modern. There's nothing wrong with that but for the guys who want a Mustang for the heritage as much as the performance I could easily see the Boss being more enticing. In fact I'm starting to wonder if I might actually like the Boss more than the GT350 haha

      I drive a Boss 302 and love it. It is and will be my favorite Mustang period. Maybe pass it down to my boy when I am too old to drive it with its heavy clutch. But, I am more than tempted to score a Shelby when the price settles down a bit. I would suspect going over a bump while banking at 100 will push you toward GT350...

    • @thelaborpeasant
      @thelaborpeasant 8 років тому +2

      +GolfNut 40ftPutt Nice! I currently daily a 99 Camaro SS dropped 2 inches with QA1 shocks set to the stiffest setting. It rides like a damn stock car but I love it. I figure one day I'll really want something a little easier on the bumps but for now I'm just enjoying it haha. Have you ever had a chance to drive a GT350 and compare it to the Boss? I won't lie I've been a Camaro guy my whole life but as soon as the Boss hit the scene I said "I have to own one of those eventually. Even if I end up not liking it I have to own it" I even prefer it over the 1LE Camaro. I love how it's a full model and not just a performance package. I love the way they're so geared towards a real performance enthusiast and not the rich cruiser crowd who just want to load these cars down with frills. Its stripped down, manual-only, adjustable suspension but none of that fancy computerized stuff, and it still has that raw solid rear axle. Its essentially the exact car I've been asking to be built forever haha. I always hated the fact that if I was getting into a performance car I had to just deal with all the bells and whistles that the wealthy cruiser crowd brought to them but with the Boss it was a whole new world. Specifically built the way I wanted it. Then one day I heard a guy drive by in one with the side exhaust uncorked and i was hooked. They're phenomenal cars. The only modern Camaro that could possibly sway me away from one is the Z/28 but they're so expensive that the Boss is just a way more practical choice. I love them

    • @thelaborpeasant
      @thelaborpeasant 8 років тому +1

      +GolfNut 40ftPutt I think I love it so much cause my first real performance car was an Iroc and the Boss is kind of the pinnacle of cars built along those lines. The stripped down solid rear axle naturally aspirated road race machines that put as much effort into grip and control as they do brute power. Its ironic that an Iroc would make me love this Mustang so much but that's just the way it worked out for me. The Boss was the last hurrah for that old school type of car and after that the live rear axle brawlers took a bow and stepped out. That's a big reason why I want one. Its the climax of that old school brawler type performance car

    Finally,...evaluators that know what they're talking about. Most talk style and features you go much deeper using terms like flat crank and dampers and modulation etc. Few if any testers get very technical and most bag on American vehicles. One man tested an F250 and his video started out calling the truck an F150. He didn't even edit the mistake from the video. All he could talk about was the size of the truck and the price. He really passed over what the vehicle was for and did the truck and its sellers a huge dis-service. You tested the cars and rated then for their intended use and for me really brought them to life. I am a driver of over 30 years experience and believe I want a sports car. I will give the Ford Mustang a very close look. I'll keep ya posted. Well done. Will subscribe 😎.

    I need to drive a 350. I have driven a GT 500 and mind blown and I own a Focus ST. I need a weekend with a GT350 :)
    agree Ford is killing it... Ford Performance that is!

      ***** man they aint competing against Vettes. People compare them to Vettes but they are up against the Z/28 and ZL1 in the GT350 models.

      +Patrick Pelletier beat me to it! Ford marketing has never stated "Vette killer". I have a feeling Mr. King is a Chevy guy and blind to anything else? I on the other hand don't care and don't compare cars in a biggest manor

      Nicholas Baldwin yea im guessing he is biased to a brand. Plus the GT500 was never a Vette killer. It was always just what i call a super-muscle car. Heavy but extremely powerful and fast.

      +Patrick Pelletier agreed. yeah I'd never compare a racecar to a street car. but most people do and that is fine. want to compare two street cars ? compare the ZL1 to the GT350R as you stated above. I can't wait for the new ZL1 just to see that comparison. but I'm just a car guy not someone that wants to own either of those cars.

    Hi Guys, great commentary! Question: How tall are you? You said your knees are almost in the steering wheel? Also, you should introduce yourselves during the opening as it connects us with you in a more personal way. Thanks, James

      Both the guys are 6'3", but Todd has a longer torso than Paul so they always fit cars differently. Thanks for watching!
