    Nice review. You don't have to apologize. I saw one at a local store one day when I was leaving. I sat in the parking lot for 10 minutes until the owner came out. His wife had left her purse in the front seat so I knew he wasn't alone. I would have asked for a ride if he would have been by himself.

    Good review, I like corvettes look but never owned or driven one. Presently, I own a 2017 Gt 350 all stock except for much lighter wheels ( knocked off 8 pounds per wheel because the stock wheels and tires were boat anchors ( 61 pounds each). That sluggish take off I experienced went away and feels much more torquey down low starting at around 2500 rpms. I also have owned many mustangs (8) including my 2012 Boss 302 and 03 Mach 1 which I enjoy presently as well. I even owned the mighty 03 Cobra!. Just to name a few. As a result, to me this is the most enjoyable all around true sports car I have ever owned. I guess I am somewhat biased, but with the right driver this car can put down some good performance numbers. Most average drivers like myself will never come close to professional drivers times like what you see on Car shows like Motortrend, even in other cars like corvettes and other high power cars. In conclusion, this is an all around sports car with a mustang shell, that’s why it’s called a Gt 350 and I will subscribe to your channel because I love all cars. Thanks for the review.

No spokes cracking like some people have reported. The specs are the same as the Gt 350r. I just used by same tires that came on the Gt 350 with no fitment issues. The price was worth it for me.

      @@HorsePowerObsessed I hope a naturally aspirated "5.5L" DOHC FPC V8 is put in a regular production C8 Corrvette. I think one of the shortcomings of the Voodoo V8 is it's 100mm bore spacing forcing a long stroke of 92.7mm and vibration issues. Using a 102.9mm(4.050 inch) bore and 82.55mm(3.25 inch) stroke would greatly reduce vibration(forged alluminum pistons are fairly light, compared to increasing the stroke). I think 5.5L for a V8 is an ideal balance between an engine that is capable of high rpm(8500rpm+ limit), quick revving and on the other hand also has a decent amount of torque.

    I guess I’ll have to drive 1 of these things. I have a 16 c7 z51 cammed and x pipe, and 2012 Roush stage 3 mustang. Very very different cars. I used to own a 17 Cali Special that had full exhaust and the ford power pack 2 upgrade. It was a nice driving car but body roll all over the place and no low end torque. Not even comparable to the c7. The Roush makes 623 to the tires and it’s fast but the c7 is a different kind of car. I feel like I’m driving a super car in that vette. Mustangs are cool but corvette def turned me to Chevy. Cool review though

    Jason, what year is it and what's it's price? Just two exhaust settings? I'm sure you would have mentioned it, but does it have mag ride suspension? Would I switch from Corvette to Mustang? Like you, "NOPE," but I definitely wouldn't mind having a GT350, or better yet, a GT350R. Save the Wave.🙋‍♂️

    • @HorsePowerObsessed
      @HorsePowerObsessed  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This was a 2017 and price was round 45k (used with 6600 miles on it). The GT350 DOES come with a "Magneride" system that is quite similar to the magnetic ride control we get on the Corvette. I wouldn't switch, but like you, I wouldn't mind to have one in my arsenal. 😈

    I drove one and liked it, but my main complaint was the huge lack of torque. Down low nobody’s home.... I know it’s the nature of the flat plane crank but it was disappointing. Other than that complaint I loved everything else about the car. I would not trade my Z06 for it though 😉

      I was no-lift shifting that trans at redline and hammering that thing with everything it had. It was decent up top, but horrible down low and mid range. You say it can keep up with a Z06...? What are you smoking? 😂 Also, you need to check your weights on both cars. GT350 = 3700+lbs. Z06 (2015) = 3500+lbs. The Z06 is 200lbs lighter and has 650hp vs the GT350’s 526hp.

My friend had a 2018 GT350 and traded it in on a 2017 Corvette Grand Sport. He said it was nice but you really had to rev it to get any power out of it. He did like it but liked the Corvette better. I also love those sequential tail lights.

    Had my ‘18 GT350 for six months , traded it for new Vette GS . The Shelby was a sublime handler , but not much low end . Going to high RPM , I always thought it would explode , given the engine’s reputation . Happy with my choice . The Grand Sport is better in just about every way . Plus most people think the GT350 is just another Mustang from 50 feet away. And yes the sound of the Voodoo 5.2 is awesome , but is that what you buy a sports car for ?

    I'm confused. 526 HP / 429 Ft-lbs. The regular GT has almost the same 420 Ft-lbs. So if you reved it to the higher redline you'd have roughly the same HP and TQ numbers. Where's the extra 0.2L?
    I hate it when they charge you extra for the privilege of over-reving the exact same engine, then call it more powerful. What it is, is worn-out exponentially faster. Any big difference between HP and TQ is a huge red flag.

    • @135iN55
      @135iN55 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The math is actually:
      460 HP @ 7000
      so
      8250 RPM over 7000 RPM = 1.18
      so
      460 HP x 1.18 = 542 HP
      So the GT should produce 542 HP with the same redline as the GT350.
      Dynos only measure torque, then multiply by RPM to figure HP.
