Randy Pobst could make driving a shopping cart interesting 'n fun.
LD ODOM this is so true
Look up the documentary called "carts of darkness" on youtube, those guys actually make shopping carts interesting.
Have you ever driven a shopping cart? Im pretty sure it's interesting and fun already! But I'm sure randy could spice it up.
He'd probably give you a long (but presumably amusing) lecture about weight distribution and maximum grip for a shopping cart. Hell, I bet he'll use a monster truck as an analogy to prove his point.
And if they have flat plane shoe soles run, run for your life! lol
I am a simple man, i see a video about the GT350R = I press like
errorcode99 same
a bit too simple.
Wish this car would come to Europe. :'(
So true. The GT is expensive as hell and sucks. :/
Vetoxication ...expensive as hell ?? 500 Plus horsepower . what do you want it to cost ? the v8 supersport camero is cheaper than this mustang ...
Never have I wanted an American car more than this one. I wish we could get this in Europe.
If I ever do live in America, I'm buying one.
Alex Oliver I live in the us and I said this the other way around when I discovered the 911R, the tables always turn
Alex Oliver hell I paid for the SOUND the speed was a added bonus
You can buy one in CH - still imported but available. Check autoscout.
which is exactly what I'm doing right now - doing TB/intake combo swap next week ;)
Carlos? Gentle suggestion here - hush and let Randy talk. The man's a walking encyclopedia of knowledge and we love learning from that.
I hate it when online car reviews are getting better, they started asking for money, that's disgusting!
And replace best parts of a review with "Drive safely" sign.
oooining Their ignition and head-to-head episodes come to TH-cam after they premiere on their own network, a few weeks later. I wouldn't call it disgusting, it's business. If they aren't making enough money from TH-cam, that difference has to come from somewhere. What would you suggest they do?
I signed up.. And after signing up trying to watch content I get "Sorry, this content is not available in your country.." How about you tell me BEFORE signing up? Fuck I used to love Motortrend so much this sucks. Will try a VPN.
Brawndo there fast becoming drive.. and drive is dead
Gavin Irvine well, that goes to the challenges of making high-quality content on the Internet. Salomondrin can afford to make ridiculously expensive banging gears episodes because he and his friends have extremely deep pockets. It isn't cheap to produce content like that, and we're both asking for high-quality content and not expecting to pay for it. Same way that people want free news, but also demand thorough investigative journalism. And now we run pop up blockers, it's a cut off the one source of funding that these websites actually have.
At some point, something has to give. Ad prices for Internet services are falling, so at some point you have to start charging. And if not, we will just have to accept that you get what you pay for.
Randy Pobst proves that Mustangs don't crash, their drivers do. #MustangLivesMatter
What badass machines the GT350 and GT350R are.
I could watch randy talk about cars all day
Please let Carlos back on Ignition. That's all we ask!
I've always had a soft spot for the Mustang since my First Car was a '66 Mustang w/289. I got it in 1973 so it wasn't an "old" or "classic" Car at the time. Sure, the generation one Mustangs were sort of a Ford Falcon with a really cool body and interior. It did NOT handle very well and the brakes were tiny and useless at any sort of high speeds but I learned how to drive it and never put a scratch on her. With a 4-bbl Carb and Headers I got it up from 214 hp to 255 hp which was respectable back in those days. I later went on to be a MOPAR/BMW guy but still have fond relationship with the Mustang. I had a 2006 Mustang for a short time and it was faster with its stock V6 than my '66 ever was, it also handled better and actually had Brakes! I would like to say that I hold Randy Pobst in high regard and value his opinion. A REAL car guy that knows how to drive. Thanks!
Awwwwe... It sounded like you were remembering your first love! You even made ME miss your old 66. Lol Gee think you might just be a car guy?
Randy I still haven't driven an old school Mustang but been out in one, great reviews as always as you say, if you have a chance check my review out on the 415bhp 5.0 GT V8 on our channel.
I would take 350-R over the new NSX without even blinking and 90% of the Porsches that are out there.
No fucking way would you take it over a 918 or gt3rs.
Supcharged he did say 90 percent of porsches lol
Supcharged yeah i would. i love mustangs i hate anything non american
twissted I bet you haven't driven any of these cars so who cares what you think poser
ChangeHumanity how is he a poser? All he was doing was stating his opinion on the car.
"you wanna turn the stability control off and pop the clutch at every single intersection"- rip innocent crowd of people standing near by...
louis phillips I get it
L
louis phillips L
Hold this L. Idiots are idiots, regardless of car brand.
louis phillips who cares about the crowd if you are having fun driving the car 😹
One of the best GT350 reviews. Amazing!
never have I been into ford's but this gt350 changes my perspective on what ford can do, and that coyote engine is exotic would definitely consider buying one.
Kirk Lazarus III voodoo. Although you are partially correct because they looked to the coyote as the baseline from the engine.
+Jonathan Erickson oh okay, thanks for the correction still try learn.
Jonathan Erickson it's a voodoo coyote, not one or the other
Justin Walters not a coyote at all. straight voodoo
Justin Walters it's completely a voodoo only similarity are the 8 bangers and the 90 degrees they sit in
Randy seems like such a nice person. he reminds me of my history of media creation professor
That perfect double clutch at 2:57 though!
Great catch
I had my 350R delivered Oct 2016 was able to put 400 miles on it before winter. I now have 600 on it. I think it's the best car I've ever driven, from a sheer enjoyment perspective. Not the fastest...but the most fun.
50k ? Yeh right . people are paying over 80k for these at the moment
Mark ups at the dealer are always a pain, and what is worse is people buy it marked up! I remember hearing about a coworker dropping over 85k for a Hellcat when they were 1st released. DUMB! lol. I would honestly rather have a Corvette or a GT/SS and save the 60k markup and build the damn car to be faster than a 350R or ZL1 lol.
Kjraider2009 Agreed. My Pro Charged GT eats Hellcats....they never seem to like that part. LOL
No one is. You are an idiot if you pay more than 63k you got ripped off.
houston.craigslist.org/ctd/5850675824.html .................57k brand new in texas ... houston.craigslist.org/ctd/5836111512.html
phazek2 it's regular 350.. Not R
This proves ford is the best brand in the world right now
new ZL1 is faster
Wesley Green it isn't all about speed though, consider all the great cars ford has made now no other competitors have such great value for money. (fiesta st, focus st, focus rs, mustang line up, Shelby GT350 line up, and ford GT. let's not forget about the raptors (;
Wesley Green yes the Ford GT is super pricy which sucks but the rest are better values
I agree with all of those except the GT that shit is 400k starting price. The next Lexus LFA. Great time to be a car guy right now tho if I want a car payment I'll definitely upgrade.
Idk America in general is really killing the game right now. Just look how a N/A corvette grand sport can keep up with a twin turbo 911 GT3 Porsche, or how the Z06 and ACR are two of the worlds fastest cars both faster than a Porsche 911 GT3, and the new ZL1 is a game changer. Not to mention the worlds fastest sedan from our boys at caddy CTS-V
I love Randy ! He needs to be in more of these shows, not just lap time shows..... Just a thought !
Not just because its a GT350R, but the content that you bring weekly >>> Exactly the reason I subscribed Carlos ... welcome back and thanks for an outstanding new show.
I love this car! I want a standard GT350 though, just because that seems more livable.
thanks to Randy for making this video viewable.
Agreed, great reviews as always, if you have a chance check my review out on the 415bhp 5.0 GT V8 on our channel.
Peak Performance Reviews do you have any credentials to back the opinions in the reviews? Or any resources to properly test them.. Cause it seems like every other day i find a channel where some random joe found a couple go pros and posts videos of himself in someone else's car... And people think these are considered "reviews"...
I ask because it seems like your channel belongs to one of those joe's, but I thought i'd ask...who knows, maybe youve written for magazines or a veteran in gentlemen races and such...doubtul but possible
Randy is such a great character, to be honest I like all MT guys, Jonny is a lot of fun too and so is Jason. In fact, making the 2016 driver car of the year, best of any year by far (imo)
Love Randy Pobst, and Carlos together, they should do more stuff, make a series or something!
Randy is the man! Who's this other guy? Nothing wrong with him, but I wouldn't have clicked this if there wasn't a GT350R or Randy.
Spencer T u must be new here. He was considered the best host when motor trend was becoming big but he moved to Edmunds and now he's back, sadly he's back in a show that doesn't fit him. I wish he could go back to hosting new cars
wwesuperstar1100 thanks for the info. Maybe I might have seen him in my younger days.
yeah you're new. Carlos is OG
Its okay, Spencer, I just really got into M/T last week. Welcome!
after spending 125k on a Porsche Cayman GTS, i feel some slight buyers remorse when looking at cheaper options like this GT350 that sounds like its very fun as well. Dont get me wrong, the Cayman GTS, is absolutely entertaining with great sound, fast speed, smooth and luxury everywhere and at the same time incredibly sporty. But definitely would have been just as entertained (maybe slightly less than the gts) with many other cars that are much cheaper. And then i could have bought myself a ricer winter car instead of the struggle i have now...
ZDY u should get that 350r cheaper maintenance and american made! not to mention performance. i would never look at any other car that wasnt a sport unless its a daily drivrr maybe.
Jesus H Medrano its crazy to see how cheap these muscle cars are getting these days. Especially Ford who lived thru the crisis (unlike gm) by low prices, low margins, and low costs. I never truly liked muscle cars because they looked big and are unagile, which is why ive always liked sports coupes, but man. this gt350 is something else isnt it. And the base mustangs and v6 mustangs are so damn cheap too. definitely picking one up in the future
ZDY rip
***** yea but then the thing comes down to not neceesarily performance. Its the quality too and stability. Idk how to explain it, but european cars just last longer in my personal experience and i trust them more. I only buy american or european cars so idk about japanese cars but i hear they are fairly reliable too? All the american cars in my experience were just average or below average in stability, reliability, and durability. So in teh past few years ive been mostly switching to euro cars. But man something like this Gt350 is just insane. At the same time you also buy euro cars for the "tag". Basically to show ppl you got money to blow haha. Plus Porsche, McLarens, Ferrarris all look very unique too, not that the mustangs dont, but preference. Id take a Porsche over mustang because of the classic look, but id take a mustang over McLaren because i dont like super cars at all
ZDY I suggest a GT350 and a used Porsche 997S - you could have both for less than the price of the Cayman GTS - I went this route and never bored. You need the Porsche AND the GT350 believe me.
I'm a JDM guy and I love this mustang. Ford did something very right here.
Your the best Carlos ! Always looking forward for your next episode
Damn this car looks dope af.. This is coming from a Chevy guy.. Gotta give credit where credit is due...
I'm still pissed the 350R didn't win best drivers car!!!
its like going from a 302 to a 4.6 Dohc in sound. Love the sound of my 95 Lincoln Mark viii.
this should have won drivers car of the year...... this car delivers 911 levels of performance for the car guy that has a middle class job.
release the parking brake before you start driving randy! :p
He's getting older, it's just something they do. Lol
OscarMaris lol. I've done that too a few times. Now that I've seen him do it I don't feel as bad.
It was Carlos's fault because Randy saw him release it, but he didn't release it all the way down.
OscarMaris, what they didn't show, is that he had the turn signal on the entire time! Lol
you're right, it was carlos's fault. what a jerk.
Bring back Carlos for more videos! He's not annoying like those other two clowns...
Carlos + Randy + GT350R = recipe for awesomeness!
I adore this car. Thank you for the video!
How's feel to be on the B Channel, Carlos?
Larry Smith Probably really good, since he's still get paid and is still driving amazing cars.
probably still better than being some sad noname.
You clowns need to get your faces out of Carlos' crotch. He used to be the star of the channel. He quit and came back doing B roll videos. No production values, no script - just blathering.
He quit, to go to Edmund's. Nothing happened and now he's back at MT doing the B rate stuff. He took a risk and it backfired. Oh well.
Ahh finally, kicking it into high gear!
*scene missing*
Son of a...
I own one of these. It's FANTASTIC. The most favorite car I've ever had by far. And I've had some cool fast stuff.
What i wouldn't give to spend a day with one of these two and that car. Randy is easily my favorite driver ever.
8200 RPM said no production Chevy or Dodge ever!
G. Warren - bullshit
The lack of power low rpm pull isn't worth the higher redline.
OL dummy its' not a car made for drag racing
He's right dodge or chevy don't rev that high
But why rev so high when Chevy can clean Ford out. Sacrifice a little redline for great handling, breaking, & magnetic damps an suspension
Not a fan of GT350R but I wanna say that Carlo+ Randy are much better in ignition and head 2 head. One is pro racer other is much serious than Johnny and Jason. Just look at the GT-R vs NSX and M4 GTS review. Damn.... I don't even know what I'm watching..
LOL the GT350R and Camaro ss beat all of those cars around the track
DJ JONES Laguna, yes, others, nope. Also it didn't beat the nismo ;)
How much does a Nismo cost? GT350R is the bang for buck track car and the GTR can only beat it possibly where there are longer straits because the GT350R could be the best handling production car right now considering the only cars that beat it have a power to weight advantage.
I don't care how much a nismo cost in your country, a nismo cost cheaper than GT350R here in my place. Also, no, straight line isn't where nismo can do better. Are you new to cars? But anyway, that isn't my point. So I will leave you here
ATTESA ET-S 東瀛戰神 ft. BMW ///M POWER
Sorry but Mustangs and Camaros are beating the best european and Japanese corner carvers right now. Nismo GTR is $175000.00 and a GT350R is $65000.00. Where do you live that makes a Nismo less than a GT350R? The GTR also has 600hp and semi auto transmission compared to the Mustangs 526hp and manual transmission, so yes the GTR gets it's advantages in the straits.
With Randy driving this GT350R, I could just sit and listen to the engine/exhaust soundtrack all day!
Great review Carlos and Randy!!
Dear Ford,
This a fine example of appreciating a vehicle for its motor. The Flat-plane 5.2L V8 experience cannot be replace by a more powerful Eco-boost. I say the same about the motor in my 2k1Cobra. Half of the video is about how amazing the motor is, so why hobble the new Raptor with the Eco-boost experience? Hate to do it, but until I hear about a V8 Raptor I'm going Ram Rebel TRX.
*The Ecoboost is a more Powerful Engine, and it's Cleaner Burning dude. That's why Ford did it.*
how is the ecoboost more powerful? Interesting how difficult it is for some to separate the concepts of forced induction and engine configuration. Again, the Cobra has been a forced induction motor for the last 13 years, so try not to confuse the two.The Previous Cobra put out 662HP with boost, so again, explain in detail, please. In the end, people still pay 15K for a Rolex when accurate time keeping can be had for $30, and the V8, forced or not, is still KING.This is about V8s and enjoyment, not BOOST.
cruise2kx
*The Ford GT has a 600 whp Ecobeast with 500tq, the Voodoo 526hp and 430tq*
So what you're saying is that $400K 2017 Ford GT its not as powerful as the 2014 Cobra? I'm so impressed.
this is the motor that should've been going in the Ford GT just with two snails added
*The Ecoboost is faster and more powerful, dude.*
Escape for Mankind is Keith Johnson Oh I didn't know you tested this engine with 2 turbochargers strapped onto it? I'd love to see your video of your testing that proves to me it is
@@TheMainMan318 Would have been illegal at Le Mans.
So glad to see Carlos appearing back on motor trend I've missed him
finally!! carlos welcome back!
If the markup on these comes down, this car is definitely on my bucket list. Or the regular GT350 variant more likely.
Same here, I always loved Mustangs and I have a 2008 GT. I also always lived European high revving engines and I see this as the ultimate Mustang... I just love this engine! This and the base Aventador are my favorite cars. So... nice profile pic XD
Verde ithaca is the best... :o
It's on my bucket list to rip the engine and trans out of a wrecker a few years after I'm out of college.
Under 1000 club yo! Wheres under 1000
elvrey walter more like under 300
meh
Except the video is already a few months old. Released a while ago on their on-demand channel.
elvrey walter 346th
I think this more simple and natural videos are wayy to better than the others that have a lot of jokes and only one or two makes you smile. Good jod with this video Motor Trend.
Randy Pobst is the man!
So pissed they aren't bringing the gt350 versions to Australia
brett hollis typical of what comes here isn't it
They are going to have to lift their game with regards to that now and in the oncoming future, especially with production of local vehicles (and their performance variants) almost ceased. Or they might find themselves left behind if a big grey market for imports starts to open up and they don't do anything to counter.
brett hollis Or you could buy an XR6 sprint and overtake people in their mustangs while carrying 4 passengers.
That's what you pricks get for having had exclusive access to the best straight 6 engine for years. Neener neener neener! :-P
And don't forget the plethora of dirt cheap Japanese parts and cars. You guys get all sorts of special edition stuff that doesn't even make it here. Not to mention some the Aussie only models we'd love to have.
That road tho
Great video man !
Great video!
You might find a wrecked one for $50K.
I was thinking that myself
it was wrecked GT350 for 22K i for got where i saw it but the guy going to pull the motor idk what he's going to put it in
I'm hoping that a few years after I'm out of college I can find one depreciated enough to yank the powertrain out of. Got ideas for where to put it ;)
TheAcePool if ford sold the 5.2 as a create engine what would you put it in
DJ JONES Not the first thing most people think of, but I've always loved the 66-67 Buick Riviera, and have wanted to put it in that since I heard about the engine.
Two words.. HELL CAT
707hp with 275 rear tires FTL
xt6wagon I have 275 rear tires in my stock m5 e39
454chevy454 Four words... COBRA JET >>>>> FAT CAT!!!
one word......NO!
one more word: Tires
Another: Weight
the only channel where "quick drive" can mean a 19 minute video
We can read between the lines...... Glad to see Randy is EXACTLY who we thought he is! HAHA! I'd love to go for a cruise with Randy!!
Mustang GT350r = sex on wheels. No ifs no buts, and sort of affordable too!
You have to admit.
This was a very unconventional video.
The Mustang didn't run anyone over. Not one single person!
Chevy guys will hate it.
Ouch, harsh but yeah i get ya =D I think just the wrong people get a hold of these cars because they handle so well and a drift is easy to hold on them. If you have a chance check my review out on the 415bhp 5.0 GT V8 on our channel.
love this episode
I've been a Mopar guy all my life, this car is amazing!
I would love to put a Turbo or Supercharger on that engine.
I'd probably put a supercharger cuz of the whining sound it makes
Why would you want to ruin this
Arne Hurnik
Theres certain cars that dont need that extra boost, this is one of them, however the 5.0 is open for all kindz of firced induction Don Hanson
e46 can't touch this car
20 mins is far too long for this kind of review format... even more so for people today. Id shorten it or change something.
And who exactly are you?
TranceFur he is as irrelevant as you.
i enjoy it. can listen in and view the comment.
I wouldn't mind it being longer if they got stuff to really say or show, but it was 20 minutes of waxing lyrical and wasting time.
TH-cam really attracts the lowest of the low.
It was perfectly constructive criticism. Two guys sitting in a car for 20minutes is not going to work very well in todays world of reviews. Even Farah's One Takes can sometimes feel stretched. The only one so far who somehow manages it IMO is Harry (Harrys garage). But he does it systematically, outside,inside,this, that.
Love the car!! Nice vid.
this was a terrific video.... thx so much for posting... i'd rock that car in that color for sure if the funds existed.. such a MUST buy...
They jacked Matt Farah's swag of the Smoking Tire.
That is not cool.
If we wanna get technical, they're a bit different, 'cuz they're focusing on the interior instead of the hood cam. But, I get what you're saying.
i know what you mean, but honestly it's not like matt's doing anything proprietary..just a couple guys driving and talking about a cool car
AS MOE I think the difference is, people actually bring Matt their cars and MT actually access to some limited availability of industry cars because of the clout of the mag itself.
But, my point is, Matt get's a lot of shit for doing the exact thing MT now wants to take advantage of. smh.
At least Matt drives a fan's car and give his honest opinion of that person's car.
Mike Vincent You have a point, actually. I see where you're coming from.
Mike Vincent
true, thesmokingtire is set apart mostly by driving the fans cars..i'll always like matt's show better..motor trend is more like something to watch if i've run out of everything else that i normally watch..lol, like thesmokingtire
The Gt350r got more hype then the Hellcat.
I just have to say all around this is a fantastic car. the technology, design, performance, amazing sound. it doesn't matter what it beats or what beats it it's just a fantastic car !
Randy reminds me of that one cool middle school teacher everyone had. The one that drove an old BRG Jaguar E-Type to school while the other teachers drove into work with boring Toyota Camrys.
I cant believe what shit the BMW m3 gts is when ford is making this.
LOL you will never be able to hit the redline on public roads
Listening to and watching this car perform takes me back to the movie Bullitt with Steve McQueen. Now that was a street race like no other.
1
He doesn't even seemed worried that the mustang may just careen off the road at any time. Those things are like the Note 7s of the car world. ....except not catching fire but randomly crashing.
Clint Maas ??????????????¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿
If it was any other driver I'd agree with you.
Clint Maas actually it's 17 yr olds who have zero driving experience crashing these cars, not seasoned drivers
Clint Maas I'm sure it handles worlds better than the 96 cobra with springs that I had. And that thing handled pretty damn good for what it was. You gotta be a chevy fanboy to say that.
Clint Maas You're pretty dumb to say that about a professional race car driver...
Randy is back. I don't watch these are a lot of car stuff...but Randy is the key always here and the 2 personalities. He ended with a BILLY JOEL quote. Well done. Why no track time?
Another huge value for car with the R - CARBON FIBER WHEELS!!! This car is a the definition of why non Mustang fans become big ones! Big props to Ford for building this masterpiece!!
so the mustang track version = camaro SS in terms of performance... Ford should start selling lemonade.
Mohammad Alqarawi You must have been hit VERY hard with the stupid stick 😂
Sorry egg yolk, I don't speak slow.
Mohammad Alqarawi 😂 dude for your own sake, I hope you're joking...
I know, not a great day (couple of decades really) for the mustang fan boys :(
But Chevy shoved their dicks right straight into ford's round rectum on this one hah!
Your so right. A 1SS 1LE is 3 seconds or less slower than their premium GT350R. Well the ZL1 will beat anything they through at thrm
These are some amazing roads!
I was never into Muscle cars.. but this GT350 changed my mind
Wow... this car looks amazing, drives amazing... def going on my to own car list in the future!
I miss carlos, happy to see him again.
The Dillinger Esc Plan! Not death metal, but still - glad you're back, Larlos.
i love that you still have the 240ss
2:56
That double clutch downshift 💆♂️
Thanks Carlos; glad to see back on MT. It would be impossible to quantify how much Randy brings to the reviews. This guy is a treasure.
Like the format of this show as the extemporaneous conversation only works but to a degree as there's a lot of repetition and flat spots. Maybe you both, independently, prepare some talking points to keep the flow.
I really liked these.
Props for driving with your e--brake on Randy!
Love the Dillinger escape plan reference hahaha
at 11:05, wiping a tear of joy
The first nineteen minutes were just a broken record of "wow, this is so special" then the video was over lol
Randy is the man!!!
RANDY!!!!!! Love love love
I just met randy today for the first time at Atlanta caffiene and octane. really cool and down to earth guy
Hey Larlos Cago, great vid
Carlos listens to Dillinger escape plan?? That's AWESOME!
Favorite host.
Can't believe I had the privilege to race against Randy at Sebring. He actually came up to me and said I am a good racer, and it was my first time lol one of the best moments of my life
Carlos+GT350R=Classic Ignition
