I personally will go with the GT350R, couple things why…
1. How Rare the car is
2. The Interior
3. The Sound of the car is more Raw
4. 6 Speed Manual
5. History of the GT350’s
I absolutely love how the 350s engine is modeled after a Ferrari engine. It’s soooo much more than just a mustang.
That's exactly what I did about 3 years ago, sold my Audi and got the 350R and then immediately bought a Honda Civic. Going from the R to a Civic makes you appreciate how awesome the Shelby really is.
I sold my 350 and bought a Civic. I miss that Voodoo so much!
@@danielmembrillo6472 My advice is to get it back and have both. I'm going to the grave with my HEP R. lol. Although the new civic hatchback is REALLY good. It handles well, it brakes well. I was super impressed with it for 25K out the door.
@@creamfalcon I plan on it. I bought a 2021 Type R so at least it's still kind of quick. I want to get a grabber lime 350 in a couple of years once child is old enough for forward facing. We shall see if my wife agrees :-)
350R engine is just a absolute gem
It seriously is.
GT350 any day over any GT500 stock or 1500 whp. Idc. DCT, while cool and very fast and track oriented I guess, is boring. I’m banging gears to 8250 with a flat plane crank over sitting there smashing my foot down and clicking stupid paddle shifters any day.
Tell me you don’t drive good cars like these without telling me you don’t drive good cars like these 😂😂😂
@@fryfamilytv tell me you don’t drive manual and just sit there pressing the pedal without telling me you don’t drive manual. (I’m speaking from experience when I say the GT350 is more fun)
Edit: also you’re cooler than me I’m putting that out there. I saw the Ute and the fuckin right hand drive 3rd gen you got there Aussie boy. That’s so sixk
I agree 100%. I love to drive the car. Manual transmission all day.
Boss 302. GT350
@@CaptainAlex69 I mean ideally have both would be best!
Awww nah mate no one is cooler than anyone else. I appreciate the kind words though.
The Mustang is actually a special Aussie addition.
700hp blown 5.0, 1 of 500 made, manual only. It’s great fun! We got it from Ford as they don’t bring the GT350 or GT500 here
Great comparison. I’ll have to get some seat time in a 500. But I’m a 3 pedal guy and the sound the 350 makes is just 🤌 plus it’s my Daily. So it’s certainly full of smiles per gallon. The fuel consumption on the 500 would make me pause on that purchase a bit as a daily. It drains fuel like a fire hose. The 350 isn’t as thirsty.
Yeah, I was pretty good friends with a guy who owned a GT500 and he said he’s never seen his range estimate above 150 miles. He basically had to fill it up every time he took it out.
Love that Gt350 bro! Exact spec I was looking for/ similar back in 2020! Love the content keep up the great videos and enjoy them cars!
To me the GT350 looks better in the front than the giant mouth of the GT500 - the black trim between the grilles. Also prefer the front fender vents of the GT350 over the plain fenders. And I love the analog tachometer in the GT350. I've driven the GT500 about 1000 miles and had about 5 minutes as a passenger in a GT350R. The GT500 is spectacular in that it's so easy for anyone to have fun in it. Effortless. The GT350 is more fun to me with it's manual transmission, the Voodoo engine which sounds like literally no other engine on the planet, and the more "cohesive" front end styling. Even if someone was to manual swap a GT500, I'd still prefer the unique sound of the Voodoo and the styling of the GT350, over the extra power.
Enjoyed it guys…great idea!
I have a built twin turbo gt350. It’s 100% a no brainer. I would pick it any day over a gt500. I’ll have this car forever. Revs to 9500.
How did you get the rev limiter that high?!
I thought it was 8500 ?? 🤔🤔
Thats insane, I love it!
The carbon fiber track pack version of the GT500 has the recaro seats and the alcantara steering like the GT350R. It would give you the same interior feel of the GT350R. You also get carbon fiber wheels on the track pack version that are standard on the GT350R. I own both and hands down I prefer the GT350R for all the reasons you guys mentioned in the video. In summary, the GT350R is a track car for the street and the GT500 is a street car that you can track. FYI, if you want to rev the GT500 at any point during your drive hold both paddle shifters at the same time to put the trans in neutral.
I want to be like you bro. I wish I had both
Great comparison, thanks. I own a GT350 and love the Tremic 6 speed along with the Flat Plain Crank. The engagement factor, handling and unmatched sound of the motor tip the scales for me.
Beautiful.....I took a stock 16 GT and made it a custom GT 350......Completely re-vamped.....I couldn't be happier.....
makes me excited for when i get one of these someday
The 350 engine is obviously great but reliability is a huge concern, especially if you care about it retaining its value if they ever had to replace it.
Reliability isn’t an issue with the 2nd gen motor
Gen 2 motor is a whole lot more reliable than gen 1. But there are lots of people who have the gen 1 and have had it for 75k+ miles. Regardless of which motor, make sure you got enough oil after every 3k miles.
The GT350R with twin turbos is the ultimate car to have. Brenspeed did a Whipple on at GT350 last week, 890HP on E85. Now the R is track car so with 900HP it would be the ultimate.
Two awesome cars, but since I also own a GT350R, I would never change it for any other vehicle. Now.. curious about knowing how did you set up the car seat in the GT350R. I am very interested, what type of seat is that??
Hands down Gt500 cftp is king, if I wanna row gears I’ll just get a 5.0, plus the gt350 has a vibrating issue that cause the engine to fail.
I owned a 20 GT350 that I traded in for a 20 GT500. Loved the 350, but for Chicago driving the manual transmission was no fun. Do I miss the 350, YES! But holy cow, is the 500 power insane. Either way can't beat raw American power from either GT
Sounds like you’re too sussy to hang with the cool kids.
I came to the same conclusion when I added a GT350 to my stable. FWIW, I highly recommend the Steeda clutch pedal spring replacement for the GT350. That goofy OEM setup is too touchy and non linear.
yep! Fixed for 19-20 model year gt350/gt350R
Both are jaw-dropping. GT350R for me. On what tires is it?
Make sure you turn on the heads up display on the 350 R. I like the variation where the 2 bars come together. You kind of have to play with the heads up display options.
Im the same with my 350. I’m never getting rid of it but I’m off to go drive it now. Haven’t driven it all week and it’s finally not windy or cold to drive. I miss the sound of it😂. ✌🏻
Sounds like you got a great deal on your 500 - grats man - jealous - best color
R looks so damn good in Avalanche . I had a 2017 350 non R. Currently have a 2020 CFTP. Def miss the manual on the GT 350.
Hey bud a Steeda clutch spring makes the clutch far more linear in the 350/R’s
Nice video guys.....well done....
Great video. Next time put cameras looking out the front and back of each car so you can see what the other looks like driving in the road
Will do!
I own HR067 which is the exact same spec as your R. I'll never sell it. Best Mustang I've owned.
I just can’t stomach trading my GT350 for the GT500. The driver engagement with the manual, the addictive sound is just to satisfying. In my Shelby group locally there are a few 500 owners. They are very nice, and the power is fabulous, but the extra 400 lbs and the dial on the console just doesn’t appeal to me enough.
Not harm intended here, but the aluminator that is in your Superformance cars is cross plane based, basically a 5.2 version of the 5.0 where as the GT350’s Voodoo is a flat plane crank is unique to it and was really only sold as a ford part to replace engines in the GT350. I think the wildest aspect is the Aluminator is making power at 8k with a cross plane crank as opposed to the flat plane.
Also, perfect spec on that R, never ever sell that thing
I wonder how many motors failed on the gt500 compared to the 350?....no comparison IMO. Yes, some people...love the sound of the 350. That is all subjective. Me...when they first came out, I went to check them out and asked the salesman to start it up. When I heard it, I walked away. As far as the 350 being like on rails...lol...look at the track times with both of them from factory...I don't think so. Case closed ....mic drop!
They can both feel like they’re on rails and there’s a 250 horsepower difference
Fantastic video! Random question, which model Diono car seats do you have in both cars? Have a toddler I'd like to bring along for rides more often and have had trouble finding a seat that fits properly. Had a Recaro seat at one point that fit perfectly but they are impossible to find now.
I actually have no idea on the 350R. I bought it this way. Sorry I don't have more info for you as I thought it was a factory option 😂
The GT500 is not an R so the rear seat is stock from the factory
@@VINGIGGS Sorry I should of specified, i was referring to the child seats in the back. I think they look to be Diono brand but mainly curious what they are as i've struggled getting a child booster seat in that fits in the back. I had a Recaro that fit well but those are tough to find now. Love the content man!
You don’t need to put in neutral to rev. Just hold both paddles down
I was going to comment that. Hopefully he sees this comment.
I own a gt500 cftp car and the biggest disappointment is that it just doesnt put that power to the ground and when it does its in a way that tries to kill u. Still love it though.
Almost every gt350 I’ve ever seen that has more than 15k miles has had blown a motor or trans, gen 1 and 2, now the gt500 is bulletproof and is why it’s the winner for me, reliable performance … I don’t like the idea of short term reliability
I wish you had the GT500 track pack as that is much more like for like
yeah ive been having a harder time trying to afford one. ill come back to this vid in 20 years. thank u
I have the R but I think the Mach 1 may be the best in between car. I love my R .
I'm team GT350.. I've had my chance to drive a couple GT350 cars and been around some carbon edition New GT500 cars..The GT350R or Regular GT350 to me is more engaging and driver focused..The 500 is a beast!!!..But I missed the stick shift..Team GT350 for me..👍🏽🏁
I have both and take them to all the Florida tracks (Daytona, Sebring, and Homestead). The GT350 is a better track car and is completley predictable in how it behaves. The GT500 is faster on larger tracks where the additional HP really makes a difference....but on a large track like Daytona, there is only a 3 to 4 second difference per lap between the 2, as the lighter GT350 simply handles so much better. Also, I believe the GT350 is only the 2nd time Ford has built a flat plane cranked engine....the first one was used in the bombers during the war. Also agree, bith are amazing cars!
Hello. I am a recently new millionaire and this helped me a lot with my decisions. I wanted to zoom in on something you said when you compared the GT500 to even the more expensive cars like the Lambo and Porsches. Does it give you the same overall thrill as those cars? I imagine it doesn't rotate like the Porsche does. But, as I have experienced so far, the car compensates for its weight quite well.
Please let me know if this GT500 I just bought is good enough a car to help me not buy something much more expensive and exotic. I love the attention it gets. I didn't get the CFTP.
How is there a car seat in a GT350R?
As a 350 owner, I'm biased, but instead of the 500, I could buy a GT, slap a supercharger on it, buy the carbon wheels, have a manual option and $40k left in my pocket
Did you get the 350R in Chattanooga? If you did, I’de love to have the rear seats.
Yes I did! I take my kids to school in the car so having rear seats was a must
@@VINGIGGS I thought that was the same car I looked at. I was conflicted between a regular GT350 and an R and when I saw that car I knew I had to have the R. I wanted the back seats for my kids as well. I thought about asking the dealer to reach out to the buyer to see if they wanted to sell them, lol. I ended up with an R sans rear seats so I’m on the hunt.
U wake up everyday recently and take knee and ask the gods for help to keep me and my family safe healthy and fed right after I ask
For gt500 working really hard to get one using this vid as inspiration
Have a great day everyone
to rev gt500 you don't have to put in neutral just pull both paddles back
I’m a very small man.. Are either of these cars practical for driving, for someone short?? If you have any info let me know anyone!! I will be in the market for a new car within a year or 2.
why not just go for the CFTP 500?
I own The R And it is a completely different game I love manual cars period.. can’t own an automatic sports car ,my next toy will be a manual new Vette when they wake up and make a manual or I will buy a 458! Daily anything DC
Now I am hooked on fords lol 😂
Performance wise the 350 isn't touching the 500. Also I bought the GT500 knowing I was going to modify it. Had I bought a 350R I would have felt obligated to keep it stock. So I guess it no only depends on what you prefer but also what you plan on doing to it.
I LOVE THE CHILD SEAT IN THE BACK! LOL!!!!
😂😂
I choose GT350R for 6 speed manual
Had a 2019 GT350 and the car felt underpowered from day one. The lack of power in the lower rpm range made the car boring to drive. Trying to stay in the powerband 6500+ is awful on the street. GT500 has power everywhere and can put it to the ground.
Great point!
GT350R hands down
Whipple Supercharged GT350R if only one is allowed.
Damn 80k for a gt500. Miss those pre Covid prices. U want a 500 now ur lookin at 140
The gt350r is not a practical everyday driver, as a daily I would never get it. The gt500 is the choice but purely on experience, joy and fun? The gt350r is by far the batter option. Nothing is as special of an experience like a gt350r
I daily drove my GT350R for 17,000 miles. It’s actually really good. Rides well, lots of trunk space, can be quiet. Only downside would be heavy stop and go traffic. But that’s any manual.
@@cmweek19 do you live in a warm weather state? I could not imagine driving mine through the cold, rainy, snowy months. It’s just not a fun car to drive normally.
@@GC-ti1vzthat’s any rear wheel drive sports car. You’re driving a damn GT500 in the snow?
@@Sloimer lmao that’s true haha! Hell no I’m not driving a 500 either lol!
@@GC-ti1vz lmao ok I thought I was losing my mind
Owned em both. Both outstanding, but I’d take the gt500 every time.
Only reason I sold it was to help fund my airplane for pilot training. CFTP 500 is in my future in the next 6-8 months if everything goes right. Amazing cars.
Having owned both for years. I can confirm same results. GT350R is epic and Motorsport theater. GT500 is a highway eating gorilla
Damn!
Really. Stay long term
GT 350 R for me over the ford performance gt500
Saleen Mustang black label imo is better
Currently have both. A boosted GT350 is the way to go and the only choice IMO!
Turbo or supercharged is the ultimate question!
Supercharger for sure. Turbos have too many parts that can and will go bad. They can also make the car difficult to keep cool why driving it hard. And I haven’t even gotten to the turbos leaking oil…superchargers are simpler and easy to maintain.
Manual over automatic any day.
Two great cars but there is still one out there the brand new 24 Shelby Limited addition I believe 250 very long list to get on
It’s a GT with a whipple, the true super snake has been gone since 2014.

GT350R all day, every day.
This shop swapped a 6 speed manual into a 2020 Shelby GT500…road test footage too. ua-cam.com/video/h8I-sZN8rIE/v-deo.htmlsi=Jl7mG__skmSboWh-
GT350R, no question. The GT500 is kind of a let down without a manual. I mean who buys a GT500 as a daily?
I did. The 500
Is actually really good. Rides well and can be used practically in traffic. Then fun on open spots.
That’s like ppl saying the gt3rs and gt2rs are let downs because they only come with dct… yea no one’s saying that, only broke’ys are saying that lol
Gt 500 , more reliable for SURE!!!
lol based on what??
@@Twinscrewgt make a quick research and you will find out; engine failure it’s a very well documented problem with the 350 ( everyone knows that) , the 500 has better reliability: better “internals” and less vibration, so now I’m supposed to laugh back? Ok 😂
@@orlandonoche been running mine 800+ hp for 2yrs. Zero issues.
@@Twinscrewgt and good for you ; still the 500 motor is way better !!! not that “fancy motor “ but still…..good luck!! enjoy your machine!!!💪 so far my 760 hp 500 stock with a warranty is smoking most of the “competition “ 🤝( and most of 350s out there for sure) 👍
@@orlandonoche lol did you just brag your boosted 5.2 is smoking gt350s. lol it should. It has almost 200hp. The 350 is lighter and more agile than the 500. The 500 is a bad ass car. But the 350 is all business on a track. To each their own.
How can the 350 EVER be considered as a top mustang, when by far the most unreliable mustang EVER PERIOD.
Gt350 for the classic enthusiast and Gt500 for the guy who wants a cheat code 😵💫
Too bad you guys don't actually know how to drive the cars lol to show what it really does 😂
We were on public roads dude
hold both paddles and you can free rev without putting it in neutral :) @vingiggs
