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.

[@moddedmedia415]

yes!! you are correct. I can afford 60k but they want 75k and that's just out of my budget. i guess I'll wait to get a used one

[@iprogerard]

+santiagomel00 my ford dealership is asking over 100k for it. Mind you its not a R

[@TheAsianpancakes]

curious question, but why wouldn't you get it online if dealers are charging that much?

[@TheAsianpancakes]

+Hugh Jayness yea that sounded a bit far fetched, unless someone put mods into it, it's not gonna cost that much if it's not a r.

The GT500, Boss 302, and 03’ Cobra are by far my favorite mustangs.

[@Snipedkill1016]

I've had all 3 and can agree. The Boss is my favorite all around car.

[@danziger69]

Had two Fox GTs and a 2002 GT. The 2003-04 Cobra is my favorite, even with it's weight.

[@TheMassdistortion]

no where as brutal as these cars but that 1993 Cobra R is a hot item being only made 1 year.

[@midnight347]

​@TheMassdistortion it's an awesome collector car but the bang for buck is terrible performance wise the other three he mentioned beat it by miles in that department.

[@TheCarCrazyGuy]

Not have I only driven a GT350, I own one. I have owned a 2013 Boss 302. Sold it 2 years ago. The GT350 is the better car.

[@SpyderRios]

Unless you can have both

[@TheCarCrazyGuy]

+SpyderRios I'm lucky to have this car :)

[@SpyderRios]

+scterka I owned a 2011 Mustang GT at the moment. Brembo pack, custom tune, ford racing suspension, borla exhaust, 19x11 and 19x9.5 forgestar staggered wheels with a 305 tire. My car is close to a Boss 302 in performance but it's not a Boss which I can actually now afford. Thing is I am saving my pennies for a GT350 instead, so yup you are one lucky guy!

[@roccoelefante3926]

and how much did the dealer suck you in over sticker. I love fords but this car still cannot keep up to the stinken camaro . I have read all the track reports. Wake up ford and start building larger displacements. I hope this car doesent turn out like their 1986 SVO flop down the road.

[@roccoelefante3926]

how does it run against the corvette. Still a loser. I will sell my boss when FORD makes a real muscle car for the real man. The GT is a dream ,that the average person cant afford and the shelby 350 with 526 HP, unbalanced engine crank is a gamble. I see hundreds of them already on used car sites.WHYS that? I am entitled to my opinion and quit acting like a baby and calling names.

[@PapaBDF]

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.

[@Texas_Cruiser]

How's the car doing after all these years?

[@jonathanvaresko8386]

I drive it way less than I should (9k miles) but I thoroughly enjoy every minute I'm the wheel. Still gives me goosebumps to this day.

[@Texas_Cruiser]

@@jonathanvaresko8386 I'm like you with the toys...don't have them as daily drivers and take them out to enjoy when the time and weather permits. Less wear and tear, mileage, and better resale value. I'm seeing the 350s in the low to mid 40s right now which is a good bargain. Thinking I may pull the trigger next year. It's truly a remarkable car.

[@WillPaturzo]

I thought the Boss 302 was the best sounding V8 because it revved so high, and then when the GT350 came out, I heard it for the first time, and I had an eargasm. Honestly the most epic sounding car ever. Two amazing cars!

I have a 2014 Mustang GT and I'm just going to get the Boss 302 intake and other upgrades

[@flat6fever680]

@@jeffortman6395 Good luck and enjoy. She'll be a beast. Price out changing the rear end gears to 3:73. That's the sweet spot and I don't think it's crazy money. In fact I'd do that before any other mod. The response and drivability is off the charts. The Boss came with this gearing but GT's have much taller gearing. You'll feel like you gained 100 hp.

[@midnight347]

​@jeffortman6395 that will make your 5.0 alot better but there is alot more to the boss than a different intake. So much more than that. It also has ported heads and better cams not to mention all the things that are different inside and out and with the suspension.

[@onethirdmayo8556]

I have a boss 302. Comparing to many cars that have the similar price, I think this car is seriously underrated and deserves more reputation.

RIP Lee Iacocca ! Thank you for giving us such a story for all the years so far, and for so much more storys to come!

[@alexpavchinski]

I've seen the Boss 302s in the low $30K range, while the GT350 go for about double that. That makes the Boss 302 a really good buy.

[@roccoelefante3926]

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. Sometimes FORD just make crap.GOOD LUCK

[@nls8520]

Exactly. The Boss is to me the sort of hidden gem in the performance car world. Ford went pretty ham to create a heritage Boss car, it is certainty a very special car. Perhaps it is now outpaced due to better technologies but for under 30K the Boss is a great buy.

[@tomdubois3062]

[@Cursethedawn]

Personally I tried hard to get a GT350 and they were extremely hard to find. When you did find one it was not an R and it was often $5000 or more over sticker. So I said screw it and bought a 2014 GT500 with 4000 miles. I decided 662hp was good enough for me. ;)

[@ITRIEDEL]

I was in the same boat as you. Ended up buying a CTS V and an 1998 Cobra. I still wanted a Mustang

[@roccoelefante3926]

good choice I think you car will be worth big cash down the road. . The resale market will go up on them as years pass. They are not making that mill anymore with that kind of power unless you go to crappy aftermarket stuff.Just like owning a 427 or 428 429 mustang from years past. Big cash cars.

[@victorwaggoner]

I'm putting this quote on my Boss 302 when I get it spring 2021... This car is raw and rowdy. This feels old school. It wants to be the life of party. It walks in, kicks the door open, might of already had too much to drink. It's a drunkin party animal, That is the Boss Mustang. Everyday Driver -2016

[@thelaborpeasant]

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

[@golfnut40ftputt3]

+Evan B 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]

+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]

+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

[@jerrydufresne1886]

No regrets, I chose this over the 718 Porsche Boxster (base not S)... and it's just an incredibly fun drive. Very raw, very communicative, and all around a great experience.

[@BmacRDX]

I have driven it (GT350), and agree with everything you say. It's an amazing car.

[@johnlau743]

You guys are great with dissecting pros and cons from many angles. One issue with the video is ignoring the huge markup most dealers are adding to the GT350. The $15k-$20k markup is a number too hard to ignore.

[@400hpmustang]

I prefer the look of the 12 and 13 Boss, jmo.

[@FirebirdCamaro1220]

13-14 Mustangs had the best body styling since the 69's. I am now the owner of a 3rd 2014, this one black v6 premium with a 6 Speed. My previous 2 14's were a white v6 base 6 Speed and a Black GT premium 6 Speed. Had things worked out how I wanted, I'd still have the GT today

[@miltonvoight3374]

The cars exhaust sound at high RPMs is awesome. Thank you for paying attention to the sound!

[@michaelfloydwright]

Nice vid with very honest non-biased commentary.

[@stevebarnes5458]

These guys are FAR AND AWAY the best assessors of the love of driving. They have an ability to articulate WHY we all like the little engineering goodies. I am looking to purchase a BOSS or a GT350 and really did not know a ton about what the real soul of the two cars is. I know now. Thank you both.

[@XxIskaxX]

You're the best non-British car channel, period

[@syberplatinumz7336]

This is amazing, but try Fast Lane Daily.

[@matthewschiebout9081]

That's not true, GRIP - Das Motormagazin It's possibly the best, but not British nor American english, it's German! BTW Everyday is JV compared to the top UK presenters. Several of them are racing on a semi-pro level several times a year, as guest drivers for the European manufacturers! And drive classics worth millions of dollars! Of course not living in over there, one will NEVER reach that level.

[@dennysantibanez8205]

Man that 350 looks incredible! But that boss 302 just looks ready to step on it once and again and again!🔥

[@mojostevo]

You guys have become one of my favorites!

[@CharlesFlahertyB]

Boss 302 owner here (2012 Comp Orange), I really want a GT350. I've tracked my Boss 4 times (Road Atlanta, VIR, Atlanta Motorsports Park and Barber Motorsports Park) and I'm not close to using all the performance it has, so it doesn't make a lot of sense go out and buy more performance. I guess I need more track days.

[@emerson323213]

Amazing review! First time also that made me wanna lust for a mustang. Thanks guys! - M4 and C7 owner.

[@sydliz1126]

I have the 2013 Laguna Seca Boss 302. I went to the dealer and they had both the Boss 302 and GT350. I drove both and liked the GT350, but the Boss 302 was more raw to me. So I didn't buy either and found a Laguna. It had that bit more that I needed.

[@danielcamacho1913]

I prefer the sound of the Boss 302. More, please! :D The Voodoo engine sound is OK. It's not offensive. I just like the cross-plane Coyote sound a lot better.

[@hsucduw]

You're insane!!!!!

[@ColdSid]

You are smoking something the GT350 Is legit one of the best sounding cars out there

[@usaclaimsthemoon4198]

As a ls loving Camaro guy, the voodoo noise by itself is making me become a Stang guy

[@lyndahammel9502]

I could listen to and drive both of these cars all day long with a smile on my face.

[@Reecesavage-Alwayswin]

Now the question is once you modd the boss will the comparison be more in the boss favor? The boss has a lot more of room for improvement.

[@jahmel9780]

I love the body lines on that gt350. Best looking modern mustang to me

[@joshu-bass5426]

This is really informitive and everything they say is accurate, im subscribing!

[@Stuka87]

The GT350 is the first car that REALLY makes me wish I had the money for it. I love my '16 Mustang, but the GT350 is just soooo good.

[@PrinceZirconium]

Great video. Looking forward to more content from you guys especially comparisons like this. Keep it up.

[@ryanrobinson2401]

I have to agree with most of you commenters this is a great comparison video. I have seen every video and I mean every video about the GT350 and this one was the best. I own a GT350 base and it is a very well damped car. The mag ride is great but nothing lost with the old fashion gas shock. They aren't going to be making engines like this anymore. Keep up the good work!

[@patrickpelletier6315]

i find it hard to believe that Ford built this 5.2 with only the GT350 and GT350R in mind. i expect there to be other cars with it but still to be a rare package.

[@sk8erord]

Very well done! I love the GT350, and it's cool to see it compared to the Boss 302. As for the rattles in the dash, yeah, it's still a mustang. My 2016 GT does that, too. :( I still love it. If it was in my price range, I would have bought one, but between it's own cost and the ridiculous ADM that most dealers are charging... Anyways, well done guys!

[@phattyhales]

+kelly hatcher We are guessing it has to do with the base model head unit.

[@charleshenson4183]

sk8erord dash rattles? I haven't any in my 16,you may want to take that to the dealer.

[@PaulC-sn6vc]

Very impressed with how far you guys have come, very informative and entertaining reviews for both non-car people and enthusiasts!

[@volcom52002]

Great job! The gt350 is the reason why I'm gonna learn how to drive stick

[@mr.winkie]

I hope u didn’t learn how to drive stock *ON* a 350…

[@FORDKIDD]

Boss 302 is the best bang for the buck car. You can get one for 28-32k right now with low miles. Future collectible car only made for 2 years. Get one before they sky rocket in price.

[@austinpolley9391]

Boss 302s are my favorite cars

[@ronhampton2396]

This comparison is spot on. I purchased a new 2012 BOSS 302. Drove it for four years and 20,000 miles. Attended the Ford Performance school for the 302 in Utah. I then pursed a new 2016 GT350 with the track package and attended the Performance school for the GT350 in Utah. Two different Mustangs, but the GT350 is the better road/track car.

[@JCTiggs1]

I love you guys (sniff). Been around since your early days when you had 15k subs. ☺

[@EverydayDriver]

+JCTiggs - That's a long time. - A huge thanks for being with us!

[@kickyadick]

Same here! I love how these guys talk about cars, just like a bunch of friends talking.

[@JCTiggs1]

Charlie G Yeah! They definitely deserve more subs! Keep up the great work guys! 😊

[@sydliz1126]

Best Mustangs: Any 1965-1968 Shelby 1969 Mach 1, Boss 302 and 429 2003 Cobra and Mach 1 12/13 Boss 302 Any GT350 or GT500. My personal favorite that I can actually afford? 2013 Boss 302 LS.

[@StephenMorganCanada]

I constantly struggle with the decision of whether to trade my Boss on a GT350. But then I think, only if I went full on and got the R (the only one I've driven on a track). And yet I know I'd regret selling the Boss. So like the gent who owns both of these, I need to own both as well.

[@jeremyconrad9183]

ive never fallen out of love with cars but the intro to this video made me feel what its like to fall inlove with cars all over again lol

[@stefankoles]

Such a good review , like alwayes.

[@rickykinney4640]

Outstanding comparison gents, the comment about the Boss 302 is like "the person that shows up at the party with little too much to drink" is a funny but accurate assessment of the Boss.......so much fun!

[@ITRIEDEL]

Will you do the new ZL1 and Z28?

[@victorandrade7940]

Im 5'10" and even I found the seating position awkward on the regular Mustang seats and the clutch. I found it really uncomfortable and while everyone says the interior is "better". I only think the center console dash / electronics look better. I think the rest of the interior looks way better in the 13/14. The black plastic moldings are everywhere. The door vents, around the speakers, tweeters, etc... Even the door unlock switches and door level looks cheaper. Even the GT premium just doesn't feel the same as a fully loaded 13/14. Imo. They should have replaced all of the chrome from the 13/14 with carbon fiber on the 15+.

[@ronnie7061]

it makes me sad that you have less subscribers than tjhunt. you guys do some great work

[@benanderson89]

sentienthalo1 no click bait and a more mature target audience will always equal less subs, sadly.

[@Borchert97]

My dad and grandpa were always Ford muscle maniacs, they owned Torinos, Cougars, Mustangs, so of these two, while the GT350 is definitely the better car, the Boss 302, or the last gen GT500, are probably the pinnacle of muscle cars for Ford.

[@nicholasbaldwin1674]

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!

[@nicholasbaldwin1674]

+Michael King I wish I was cool as you! must be your last name that makes your head so HUGE?

[@patrickpelletier6315]

***** 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.

[@nicholasbaldwin1674]

+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

[@patrickpelletier6315]

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.

[@nicholasbaldwin1674]

+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.

[@100thomasmagnum]

I am a Porsche and Mustang GT driver...and I must say, I love my Stang! GT350? Even better! good review!

[@jamesinoregon1081]

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

[@EverydayDriver]

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

[@itsjt9523]

I know one thing is that your awesome intro got you a new sub. Great video aswell.

[@Sumayyahguest]

I was searching for a video that compares the two generations and I randomly found this. great video. it's on par with channels like drive.

[@HOSSMCGILLICUTTI]

The long haired guy looks and sounds just like Neil Peart did in the 90's. I wonder if he plays drums.

[@Johnnycdrums]

Play at drums, maybe.

[@HOSSMCGILLICUTTI]

Johnnyc drums So did you see the resemblance.

[@Johnnycdrums]

HOSSMCGILLICUTTI ; I'll happily take him on in any musical idiom; Thank you. Not, Neil Pert per se. I don't "play at the drums". My Dad taught me to swing and follow the vocalist. I, however, appreciate your comments. I really don't see the resemblance, found out tonight, that I'm no longer young. My left hand ? My left hand? I'm not happy with this, but my rhythm is well, starts in the brain. Chops, in any event, aren't the ultimate groove test.

[@vanimportsbcvanimportsbc5680]

You guys make absolutely awesome reviews. Super informative, but most importantly, your automotive passions really translate through to the viewer. Great work!

[@benstan4978]

7 years later can I can see how the price went from $40-50 to to low 40s…. Now back up to 60-70s

[@sgamessjlego]

side by side, I think the 302 has the kind of presence that I like, the looks of it are just so good... I'm probably gonna hate on the body design of the 2015- Mustangs because it doesn't have that magic muscle car look but I can't deny that I want to get behind the wheel of a GT-350/R because of that exhaust note and overall performance... Someday... even though it's a slightly better looking 2 door fusion....

[@Coletrainbaby]

Buddy...you've never seen, or sat in a gt350. When you do report back. You'll forget about ever calling it a fusion 😂😂

[@sgamessjlego]

actually, I have seen them. I respect their performance, but the look... not as much... I don't deny the grin I'll get from driving one though...

[@Coletrainbaby]

+sgamessjlego just spend a few minutes walking around the car and sitting in it. driving it would be even better. you'll definitely change your mind

[@sgamessjlego]

only one way of knowing for sure... :)

[@13spdRoadranger]

I own a ‘16 GT350 and LOVE IT! It’s everything you guys say it is. The only disappointment I have is the fuel capacity. A couple more gallons would be nice but if that’s all I have to whine about that’s nothing. The seats are comfortable, the stereo is great but the engine sounds better and it’s perfectly capable of long road trips with two people.

[@NoBody-tz4fb]

Missing the 2003 cobra.

[@driveintherain]

One of the best car channels on KZbin! I love your videos from the beginning and your videos now, please keep up the good work and know you guys are supported by lots of fans👍🏼

[@skyisdlimit6125]

I'm just wondering if ford is actually planning in replacing their V8s with ecoboost engines. That's gonna be their death sentence. Even Germans know that people will pay to have V8 that's why they still have V8s in their top trims. Hopefully not

[@josiahbradley2434]

Why not a ecoboost v8

[@Justacogg]

I own the track pack GT350 and it really is everything they say it is! The down side may be you really need a lot of road to approach it's limits.
