Do I REGRET buying a 2020 Shelby GT350R Heritage Edition?

[@jetthompson7622]

You come off as the opposite of bragging. You always realize how fortunate you are and realize exactly how you obtained what you have... Keep up the good work.

Now that instrument cluster is for a real enthusiast as opposed to that tacked on iPad of the dark hoarse. GT350R definitely a pinnacle product for Mustang!!!

[@midnight347]

This I would take any gt350 over a new 24 dark horse every day and twice on Sunday. It amazes me people choose the dark horse over this just because it's "new". Blows my mind. This is 5000000000x the drivers car analog gauges in the gt350 are far better I hate digital gauges and I hate those big screens. I hate locked up tuning even more lol 😊

[@bryanwashington9511]

Ford should regret not producing more of the Shelby GT350 cars

[@islanddon865]

Steeda's view and my view, "The Shelby GT350R is an all-around driver's car that has just the perfect amount of power for a well-balanced ride whether it's on a backroad or road course."
Enough said.

What ?? It's about doing the least amount of work and leaching off of his subscribers , and crying crocodile tears so that he can enjoy having the money to buy brand new cars. Meanwhile , people that are invisible to everyone and don't have a TH-cam channel , work two or three jobs and take public transportation because they make minimum wage and don't even own a scooter. I admire people that actually work HARD for a living.

[@anthonysheehan893]

Most people do not understand what being a "car guy" is all about. It's not just going fast all the time or driving aggressively on public roads but it's about the sound and feeling you get when you're feeling one either with the machine. Congrats on getting your dream car and the connection with your dad.

Joe I owned a magnetic grey 2019 GT350 with a black roof and stripes that looked exactly like the one you featured on one of your earlier videos. I loved that look and when I found one with the same spec, I bought it! I then bought a 2020 GT350R, in Oxford white/painted black roof/stripe delete. These are special cars. Alot of other TH-camrs that bought this car, have now sold t to dive others, to each their own, but im glad you have kept yours!

Awesome car Joe!! My advice would be ‘never sell that girl!!!’ I *almost* bought a ‘20 GT350R HE. After driving it (and loving it!) I did end up instead purchasing a ‘20 ZL1 1LE 6sp manual in Rally Green Metallic. The engineering and handling/suspension/steering and of course that LT4 were just calling out to me and I couldn’t say ‘no’. Your GT350R and my ZLE are (very sadly) the last of their breed and we will never see the likes of them (new) again 😢
