Here it is! My new car! A 2018 Shelby GT350R finished in Lead Foot Gray with black racing stripes. I have loved the GT350R since I first drove one, the feel of that Voodoo 5.2L flat plane crank engine is absolutely addicting. A properly track capable Mustang, the R brings a more aggressive aero pacakge and carbon fiber wheels wrapped in Michelin Cup 2 tires. After an 18 hour drive back home from Tampa, FL, the GT350R is back home. Many exciting videos coming with this car! I love that I have circled back to a track focused iteration of the Mustang, my first car I ever bought myself was a 2012 Boss 302 Laguna Seca, and the GT350R is its spiritual successor. I already have some fun plans for this car, some trips, modifications, and hopefully track time! Make sure you follow my new IG page for the car, @leadfoot350r

[@EddieX]

Thanks!!

[@JohnGlasscock]

Man I love the GT350R 😁 Congrats to you Eddie

[@EddieX]

thank you!

[@platano104]

@@EddieX 67feet is that 56inches and you 77⁷⁷ a good

[@nagalakshmi8894]

Lol I see you ps4/ ps5 vids

[@rjhick1]

Dude I had no idea the GT350 came in that color, that color is amazing. Also you can cold start the car without that toggle switch. Just press the push start without actually turning the engine on, open the valves and then push in the clutch and turn the car on like normal

[@ThrottleHouse]

This is awesome. Congrats! What a machine

[@EddieX]

Thanks!!!

[@sunnyside9273]

Best thing about Mustangs/Shelby's is the aftermarket ecosystem. Its like the old Xmas catalogs in the 80's , so many options to choose from... Sincerely ZL1 owner thats jealous of the stock exhaust on Shelby's llllol

[@gavinweiler3831]

The 350 r sound so damn goooooddddd

[@vilebastage]

You ain't lying. There are sooo many more options for my 15 GT than my 17 ZL1. Mustang shops are all over the place, and there are so many vendors for parts. Parts are cheap due to the competition and the crazy availability of used parts. I feel like I've been paying 50% more per each part I buy for the ZL1. Not sure if that's ZL1 "tax" or just a Camaro thing (first GM car).

[@astroboi254]

That’s why I got the 18gt coming from a 2010 c63

[@Sn-tk8rq]

Never thought that would be a cool color but i am digging it. Wow, sweet ride and congratulation!

[@cmweek19]

Nice new car Eddie! Love that you showed the time lapse trip. And no left lane camping. You will love it. Well done :) If you want to start the car with the valves open, just switch to sport before starting.

[@MStrange88]

The only problem with that is is starts with valves closed then opens and stays in open. I like the initial rumble when it starts with valves open which you have to start it as soon as you push your clutch in

[@drew9312]

Lovely car- congrats Eddie. You’re a proper car enthusiast who actually earns, genuinely owns & credibly uses your cars (unlike quite a few).

[@JamesMoore-rr4ky]

I absolutely love that Lead Foot Grey color it pops, great decision Eddie that's the best bang for your buck car.

[@jasonsmith1143]

SWEET!!!! I am always happy to see people with a new car. Enjoy

[@AugieRomero]

Totally excited you got the GT350R, looking forward to some great content!

[@123JWheezy]

Congrats on the new car! I'd love to see a video on how you find out of state cars and how you set up the pre-purchase inspections, and the types of things you look for when buying a used high performance car

[@the-boring-car-guy]

Yes! Really happy for you Eddie👍. Excited to see what content you make with it.

[@razkole]

Congrats man. Glad to see a great KZbinr get an awesome car!

[@EddieX]

thank you!

[@TheSib]

Congratulations on making another dream come true Eddie! Dang good looking car with the most distinct exhaust note I hear in my area. Personally, I like your RS7 a little more. That’s what brought me to your channel. I’m hoping to get an RS7 myself, in a year or less. I really enjoy your videos and your thorough information about the things most people care about. Keep it up.

[@curaco678]

Congrats on such an awesome find! Thank you so much for capturing the raw emotions that this car creates! I was blessed to share the same joy and excitement when I picked up my GT350 about a month ago! Sharing your same opinion, I’m already planning for changes to the car! Mine is not an R, but it does come with the Cup 2 tires standard. Invested in front mud flaps, driver and passenger Ford Performance oil separators so far. But this car is so good from the factory that it is tough decisions to make any changes! Drive her hard and enjoy!!

[@jameswillard1]

Congrats Eddie!

[@paul7328]

I still remember the Boss 302 funny things have come full circle. Congrats and enjoy the new ride sinister looking spec. ps. yes more carbon fibre!

[@NickKritikakos]

That dark gray metallic is the most beautiful ever! 🖤

[@superchargedsteve3411]

Awesome so happy for you Eddie! I know you loved your Laguna Seca Boss 302 and have always wanted a GT350R. A true driver's car and absolutely beautiful, sounds pretty damn good too!!! 🔥

[@benitabecerra8]

Congratulations Bro, awesome spec! You will not regret it.

[@thirst4petrol537]

That is one sweet looking ride man. Have fun with it and can't wait for some more in depth vids on it!

[@superboy305]

Congratulations, could tell your excited. Very happy for you, cheers.

[@gusdabus101]

Let’s go Eddie!!! Congrats man insane car! Well deserved!

[@DutchTheHooligan]

What's the valve controller thing you were talking about?

[@EddieX]

It's from AWE. I think it just arrived today and I'll hopefully be installing it soon

[@Jupiter-shorts_]

Congratulations on 1 million subscribers

[@pvillaluna1]

You’ve purchased a car that’s probably going down in history as one of the best ever to be made

[@Branman345]

Love that you went back to the mustang keep the content coming. I want one so bad!

[@usernamealreadytaken770]

Congrats! I always thought Mustangs always suited you since the Boss 302 and I’m glad you got another badass Mustang!

[@skylerssupercarlife348]

It's one of the best reviewed cars of all time. Congratulations.

[@superjavi9820]

Exactly doesn’t need an explanation it puts a smile from ear to ear when driving

[@IULENZA]

What a sound, what a car! Congrats!

[@STATRipper]

Great car by the way, the absolute best color you can get!! So happy that you get to enjoy it!!

[@thugnasty8400]

I don't like Mustangs but this is the best car you've owned so far in my opinion. The GT350 is the only mustang I've lusted after. It is a special car not the run of the mill Mustang seen everyday.

[@jbdoingjbstuff]

Been following you for a year or two. Congrats! I have had a Magnetic Metallic 2020 R since October. Will be fun seeing how you enjoy it and what mods you do. I love mine!

[@jaysosa3176]

Something refreshing for the Channel love it!!!!

[@samw]

Yes!! Flat plane crank glory. Personally I’d take the non R because I like having back seats but jeeeeeez what a georgous spec, congrats Eddie.

[@YueHou]

Awesome choice! Really happy for you Eddie! Enjoy!

[@ARentz07]

Love it, and somehow I am not surprised! I could tell you had a soft spot for the GT350R. Congrats!

[@luiscar1090]

When you have your new car , nothing matters a long long trip Awesome car !!!!

[@kndao421]

Congrats! Excited to see what mods you have planned.

[@rosscarver4546]

He shouldn’t mod this - it will be worth way more later if not. If he wanted to mod it he shoulda just got a gt350

[@JDM-gx8ki]

Yeah looks 🔥🔥🔥 the way it is 😍😍

[@Rale85]

Congrats Eddie

[@jf5553]

I'm soo happy your back in a performance mustang! I bought a boss 302 just before you bought yours and I sold mine as well. I still miss/regret it to this very day. I now have a 2017 911 c2s and I still miss my boss 302!!! Am I crazy ya'll???

[@relited]

Tampa FL my home, congrats on the new car

[@ChetanPatelshay]

That color combination is amazing!

[@everyday234]

great looking..I love that color..happy you got it

[@Bigwilliestyle322]

Great car, great spec, nice that you owned the BLS previously, will you give you some great perspective to share with us. Congrats and look forward to it.

[@jaydoh9439]

congrats Eddie looks great chase your dreams

[@sickset]

Congrats brother, enjoy it! Love the 350/350R. The MPG you were getting seemed good to me, actually, lol. Glad you got back safe. Looking forward to more vids. I think I'd be too nervous with those wheels, given the cost. Would probably take them off ASAP myself.

[@mnn487]

Good luck man Enjoy your awesome ride God bless

[@BadgerGT500]

Your channel contributed to me getting my 350, great content man.

[@EddieX]

I love hearing that!! Enjoy the car in good health

[@brandon_945]

Spot on with the 350r. Not many people left in the game making a solid manual transmission car. I’d take the 350r any day over the new Vette, the gt500, any Italian exotic - pretty much anything with the possible exception of a Viper ACR

[@BOTDDNA]

Congrats and enjoy!

[@MrAjay2353]

Congrats on the new car, love the color. My F-150 is this color

Congratulations. You’ve earned it!!

thank you!

[@rubberbandmandestruction390]

EddieX Can’t believe how many things have changed. I was just at the Tampa airport a few months ago. Oh have things changed.

American muscle cars are the best. If Sleepy Joe wins, these cars will be outlawed. #TRUMP2020

Miami heat

[@VasK614]

Congrats man!! That is one clean spec 👌

[@BigMoney23223]

Either that gray or the really light gray color is the best looking paint for that car. It’s almost like a very pale shade of light blue. Gorgeous car

[@dawiebotes9124]

Sick car man, please make sure your oil filter housing has been updated!

[@matthewthedude146]

don't wanna end up like Adam LZ

[@Jestraben]

I have a 2017 350 with the filter upgrade,and all 350s built from 7/17 were equipped with the oil filter upgrade. So Eddie should be fine on that issue.

[@ChefMarcCollins]

So happy for you Eddie!! I remember your love affair with your Laguna Seca. You’ll need to do a comparison. I know they don’t compare but each car has its unique personality and it would be great to get your take on it. Congrats again!
