The only car I've ever regretted selling was my GT350. That was the best enthusiast car for the money by an unfathomable amount. Not just the engine, but the transmission, the clutch, the suspension tuning... it was Porsche level, but with an engine note to rival the v10s.

[@lealandyoung]

Truth! The GT350 was an incedible deal for what you got then Ford got greedy when they realized they could turn out parts bin cars and rake in even more cash so here we are in 2025 and a well equipped Mustang Dark Horse Premium with handling package (spiritual successor to the GT350 with tech pack.. kinda...) and its 81k and if somebody clicks off all the boxes (autotragic, painted stripes, matte film, CF wheels) it can go as high as 93k and while the DH-HP with CF wheels would likely post a better lap time compared to the GT350 it just doesn't feel as special and the added weight of the S650 platform makes the car feel like its really working hard to get those numbers.

But i recently ended up buying the latest Gen Dodge Viper, which are rather rare and expensive here in Europe, because they were never sold here, and it's one of the best Cars i've ever driven and currently drive during the Nürburgring "Touristenfahrten" once a Month each Weekend I feel the same about American Muscle Cars, sure compared to a Dodge Challenger Demon or a Shelby Mustang a lot of the refined and way more expensive German Models will win around the Nürburgring, but that's not all that matters It's the same when Tesla Plaid Drivers point out how much faster they are in a Straight Line, yeah sure, but the Tesla Plaid won't be as fun and engaging as a lot of ICE Cars! Same is true for American Muscle Cars vs more refined German etc. Cars. Yeah i love driving a BMW M5 from 2007 or whenever for 10 Hours on the Autobahn, but is it gonna be as fun and exhilarating as a Shelby Mustang, Dodge Viper, Corvette ZR1 or whatever?

The issue with the gt350 launch control is the driver. Not saying Sam can’t drive it’s just the manuals with launch controls have to be launched with the correct amount of clutch slip. A good way of doing this is imagining you just turned the car off and let the clutch out at a moderate pace. Every time you dump the clutch the car will bog, I have an SS 1LE with launch control and it took me a minute to figure this out.

As huge fan of german-cars , i would say that this mustang is the best V8 i had ever heard (in real life not only this video) , such a masterpiece from Ford , i really respect both gt 350 and gt 500, but the manual for the win always❤

@ well that’s why I know even more now you’ve never heard one take off. Because AMG are one of few German performance brands of which you don’t need to alter the exhaust for it to sound good. Maybe as I was typing you’re looking for them on KZbin…. FYI the M156 is naturally aspirated, and the w204 c63 is qualified to be a German muscle car, and guess what. Americans love it. That says enough doesn’t it? But I got your point

[@billymays7210]

@ I have. And it sounds amazing. But it can't compete with the Voodoo. When it comes to V10s, however, the Germans OWN the Americans.

[@blaze7121]

The reason why u still have traction control even when you turn it off on ford vehicles is actually bc there is two traction controls, ik it sounds stupid but you actually have to hold the traction control button for 3-5 seconds to then turn off “advanced traction control” that’s probably why you couldn’t get the gt350 to spin them back tires 2:59

[@romanjacobs1794]

GT350' are notoriously known for bogging at the start (especially with stock LC) because of lack of low end torque, which is provided by that high revving N/A 5.2 Voodoo engine. You have to be meticulously perfect with right amount of revs and clutch dumping for good start. Third drag race shows that with proper training Sam could've show great result without factory LC. Also you HAVE to power (no lift) shift through gears to keep that high revving (8.250 rpm) engine in it's powerband. Anyway, that is beautiful track "muscle"/"pony" car ❤

[@Michael02Mike-m6d]

Yeah he wasn’t shifting very well at all, you could tell the nose of the car was dropping bad, I don’t know what level of driver the guy is but from all the manuals I’ve seen him drive it’s always a poor showing.

[@jaimeisreal]

Look at the sheer size of those rotors & brake pads. But in general, yes, you will stop in a shorter distance with larger rotors and bigger pads. The difference however, can be relative. The key difference comes in how quickly a system can reach the clamping pressure necessary to lock the wheels/tires. Then timing & skill. The anti-locking system does all the grunt work.

Voodoo motor you have to leave at higher RPM from dig, why it kept boggin off the line. Also needs to hold traction button to disable advance track, why he couldn't slide and it's cutting power on launch. User error, you need to have more power in a manual. Lost alot of time off the shifts alone

Double 460 is 920.. not 600 good effort though. 350 is a track car not a drag.

Love my f82. Have cooked every gt350 by bus lengths. I traded my 4 week old 2019 Bullitt for it and have no regrets at all. Best car I’ve owned and I won’t sell it. I do love the gt350 and the reason I don’t even consider it having had 2 s550s is I daily the M4 through winter picking up and dropping off both my kids to school. It’s way faster, far more refined, gets way better fuel mileage, handles amazing for a daily , has tons of balance in the back for the kids and so much more like the obvious build quality and engineering. The M4 shares the garage with my C4 ZR-1 which has a better motor than the gt350 and sounds better too so there’s that.
