What's up y'all, yesterday my friend drove his GT350R in town for a photoshoot and I thought I'd also make a video to talk about the differences between the GT350R and GT350. Thanks for watching! Oh and to see the pictures from this shoot feel free to check out my instagram: @exoticars19
That blue is perfection!
Thanks!
Cool man !!!!😃😃😃😃😃
Race the shit out of em
I have full leather seats in my 2018 gt350 and noticed this one had fabric seats. Was this an option???
GT350 tires - front 295, rear 305
GT350R tires - front 305, rear 315
Nice Review brotha man!
That white R is so Boss!
The road presence is insane!
Personally I'm saving for the gt350 like yours but black with white stripes or avalanche with black stripes. Not the r because I don't need a track car and I need my rear seats I haul my gf and all my sports gear and 55-60 is enough for me on a car.
Avalanche is such a badass color.
NikoBell12 ikr! So good in direct light

I will sell u mine if u want..
Can you add rear seats for more on the 350r
Yeah the 350r is for if u live at the track and most of us dont so yea i would want my ac,back seats heated n cool seats all that shit
Man, I'm so happy I got mine for what I did. 2016 Shelby GT350 Dark Grey with Black stripes. 10k miles for $52,000. Gotta say I like the lightning blue as well. Going to buy a Type R wing as well as resonator delete.
Nice. I got mine with same miles for 45
The price for the gt350 compared to the R value is lesser due to the fact that the R is more lighter and faster than the normal Gt350. Right now you can find a gt350 for atleast around 30k or under that. I found one for 23k, but I'm still undecided on it. If I do get it will respect the tradition and will possibly remove the wing(because I'm not a hug of spoilers when it comes to muscle cars) and the carbon fiber rims because I know one day there will be incident that will scratch my rims and I will Have to pay a buck load just to fix them or get them replaced. I will also paint the car the same color and add the same stripes like the the blue Gt350 shown in this video.
Mario Sanon where is the Gt350 for 23k. That’s a load of bull shit.
2017 with 9k miles for 42k. Super happy with it. Same color as the R in this video
@@AntilleanConfederation I think he meant to say it found one at 23k mils because no way it would be ecoboost price territory
I own a GT350 a year ago and I just realise that you can fold the back seats
I prefer an R but would be completely happy with just the 350. Over time I would slowly upgrade my 350 closer to an R, starting with the rear seat delete, rolecage in rear (as is in that R) and more aggressive wing and wheels (as in deep dish and not black, probably silver). Both beautiful cars.
None of those are upgrades. Lol.

I love the way subtitles say music when revving
For me I'd take the regular 350 over the R because I'd be afraid to daily the R because of the carbon fiber parts, and I might actually use the back seats. It's still phenomenal on the track
same. suspension is better for daily driving too
Great video. Liked and subscribed. Some other differences include the calibration in the software correlating with the unique suspension and aerodynamics on the 350R. One of the many examples found in the MagneRide calibration of the GT350R details the smaller interior piston orifices inside the dampers of the “R.” The software is also precisely calibrated to reduce harmonic frequency of the carbon fiber wheels on the chassis compared to the standard GT350. The bushing durometers are also unique on the GT350R and respond differently to the “R” suspension components.There are more differences in the two cars than meets the eye. For those that think you can transform a 350 into an “R,” it’s more than just bolting on a larger front splitter, larger wing, and CF wheels.
Just for information sake, I purchased my 2019 350r in Ford Performance Metallic Blue with 6700 miles as the third owner for 69k from an Audi dealership in May 2021. It’s was and still is in mint condition. Absolutely love the car, hard to say if I got a good deal or if it was a fair market value price.
I have an R, I have owned many old Shelby Mustangs and this is he most awesome car I have ever owned.
When I heard carbon fiber wheels my ears perked
Coming out in '16, GT350 original pricing $49,995 with a $1300 tax addon, as for the GT350R pricing was $63,495. All pricing with preferable customizations of course due to change, but the markups are insane. And as said, suede is aka, Alcantara. Having been released as the spirited street car with racing acou'tre'mont's, Alcantara, especially on the dash is to reduce sun glare opposed to the plastic gleam while "racing". And that red "pinstripe" on the steering wheel is aka, dead center steering indicator also for "racing". Race cars have a yellow one usually but to each there own.
Great video 👍..I drove a friend's 350R and absolutely fell in love with it.
The Blue 350 sounds way more vicious to me. Love them both.
Wow, I wish I could talk that fast.
I love the weight savings on the wheels. Aside from that, for the money difference, I'd get the GT350.
I’d be to afraid to scuff up or get the carbon wheels stolen.
The only difference is that the R will allow you to drive into crowds quicker when rolling out from a meet.
stop hating it depends on the driver
Saw a Porsche slam into a crowd of children at Cars and Coffee in Boise Idaho. Explain that.
just letting you know the R actually has a shorter front fascia and grill its making the hood even lower. everything in the front is actually lower but a small but noticeable amount if you are looking for that detail.
Due to being 21 and not having any real credit I’m paying the same price for my 2015 gt that I would be for a 2016 350... it sucks but I feel blessed to be able to buy a nice car at my age and I’m doing everything to build my credit. Hoping to get a 350 one day
I just picked up a used 16 tech pack 350 with 3700 miles for 46,365 three weeks ago 🤘
TheWhatYouNeed enjoy it man! I’m definitely enjoying mine!
Tristan Hicks hell yes, love the Shelby
Good video. I have a velocity blue 2019 gt350 not a lot of differences between the two now. Mine is loaded and I got it for 2700 off msrp and the dealer still made money. They were real fair about the price at my local Ford Dealer in Louisiana.
Man, I love the "R" model for many reasons, overall look, exhaust sound, tires and wheels, wing, badging, interior. etc.
never pay over msrp. hate greedy dealers. they call it capitalism, I call it their greed.guess i wont own one then. I have my principles.😅
Beautiful cars both of them. I love your color combo the best though!😎👍
Yeah the R is insane! If I could've gotten a GT350R for MSRP, i would've. Unfortunately I live in the real world :/
One should never pay over MSRP. Dealers who do that should risk having their dealership taken away from them.
I would be just as happy with a track Pack GT350. replica R forged wheels in white with blue stripes and resonator delete.
Those pilot sports on the 350r are amazing tires
I think I'd buy the gt350 cause I would daily drive it. The r is going to be one of those cars that is going to be valuable to a collector and it would be a shame to put a bunch of miles on the r.
both. cant afford either unfortunately .
Not yet
Did you ever get one?
@@jamalcolmpayne7938 no but im on my way. bought a type R in 2019 and a house in 2020. dont want to trade my type R for a gt350 so soon after buying my house. so im going to wait a couple more years. i also want to keep my type R so i'll have to wait another maybe 4 years if i want to have both cars.
@@drepop803 aye big congrats my man!!! Many blessings to you! 😁
@@jamalcolmpayne7938 thanks brother!
Love the look of these mustang's trims
That white with blue stripes is where it's at
Thank God both the Gt500 and the GT350R exist early because the price of the basic GT350 price depreicated for a reasonable price.
Fuck yeah ~ ! Thanks for the video home slice ~ !
I had no idea these cars looked sooooo damn good
Is amazing how today march 25, 2020 you can get a 2017 gt 350 with only 13k for $38,899... when back then they were at $59,140(msrp) you will be saving over $20,241 ... now is the time to buy them !
Today the 350r selling for 51-70k depends on the mileage. Hard to come by, just the rims and wing is $20000, Ford jake price up on these so the average 350 owners won’t try to make their 350 into 350r
Just saw your friend's gt350R today in Laredo Texas Beautiful car
Fantastic comparison video
Cood content there buddy, you got my vote!!! For shore
Wow,My favorite cars,I wish I had them both.😃There so cool 🤩👍Thank u
Getting my 17’ gt350 very soon. Can’t wait! Wish I could swap the cluster to the new models but that’s alright
I own a 2019 GT350R, it is so much fun!! If you have the means go out and get one!! You won’t regret it!!
Guy did his homework on that R
Gimme the white with blue stripes and red accents. its s beauty!
These cars are amazing, though if you had the money to spend, would you consider a 350 to 350R conversion?
i want to buy a gt350 but the only thing that bothers me is the ground clearance. So my question is how often do yall scrape your front fender going up steep drive ways and going over speed bumps???? And can you replace the front fender after scraping it down?
Bought a 19 350 about 3 months ago. Don’t daily it but when I do drive it I don’t have issues with scrapping it. Have speed bumps in my neighborhood and still no issues. I’m careful when driving it so I’m sure if you’re not paying attention or going hard into a crazy driveway you’ll bottom out. You can replace most of the parts and can also buy parts to help protect the front splitter.
Thanks i was looking for a track car...an heard the GT 350R has the race oil cooler rear...motor oil trans cooler standard....an the larger spoiler...rather than convert the 350 GT TO a track car the R has the coolers standard...which is a must on track thrashing days....ducts work to brakes is easy enuf to do myself....but the rear diff cooler may be a different rear stronger gears an different ratios....i like the exhaust removal so much hp can be gained by straightening the exhaust pipes...an just taking bends away...peace out...
I got the 2017 GT-350 thus very happy with the track package. On the R why do they paint the carbon fiber parts (RIMS and Spoiler)? Need to show the folks it's CF so don't paint them.
How about the mechanical differences, I hear the R has a stiffer sway bar in the rear and also the ride height is slightly lower. Are there any other differences besides the resonator delete?
gmax876 different final drive ratio, slightly lighter due to no satnav, carbon fibre wheels and no rear seats and more aggressive aero
they have different engines. the r has the 5.2 voodoo which has a flat plane crankshaft and i believe the 350 has a coyote. i could be wrong on the 350 but the R definitely has the 5.2 voodoo
yep i was wrong they have the same engine
lmao thanks for doing the research for me and making sure it was right :)
ry2t2 different long block
Seen five gt350r's here in Utah.
That moment the ads are for honda and toyota 🤣
Hey man first video I just came across and like the quality. Advice to Maybe get a tripod, Video seemed a little too shaky.
Mine would be the gt350 cause I want to be able to use it as a daily and in the future take kids to school and then fit all their sporting gear and stuff but at the same time listen to the glorious exhaust note
I really like the mustang GT350 it's a really good car
Rs are around 68-78K… why ppl are telling these selling on 100K markup ??
I would choose the standard GT350 because I'm not a track guy. I own a 2020 velocity blue base model GT500.
nice video... i love that white one
Do one need to go to a special tire shop to replace tires on carbon wheels?
Yes you do. It is call "dealership" but we call it stealership.
beautiful machines
Gt350 is the best mustang out right now, 5.2l voodoo yes.
I would pick a new zl1 for a Track car though, because zl1 is only 55k practically brand New and if you look up laguna seca times it destroys the gt350.
Looks wise the gt350r is sick looking, But I'd buy the gt350 for a daily and zl1 for track car.
I like both
fast forward to 2019 and you can buy a GT350R for under MSRP, under 70k. Only ever seen 1 or 2 Rs, and a bunch of regular ones, and there are dozens of GT350 for sale on Craiglist and Facebook, but not 1 R locally.
Great video.
Don't forget the lol cooler, the trans cooler and rear diff cooler, also the underpinnings and many many others
I didn't... 1:51
Nice vid. So by removing the resonator we would get the R sound?
Also do you know where he got that front plate bracket?
I read that the motor on the R has some upgrades over the standard gt350, aren't there motor issues with 18 and down gt350’s and in 19 ford put the R motor or the voodoo gen 2 in all gt350’s thanks
Also all the car settings and options are better in the gt350 so it is more comfortable and the gt350R is somewhat better on the road. So basically the R is just better on track
If money is not an issue I would go with the R but if I had to daily drive the car and couldn't afford another to daily I would go with the 350 and put a supercharger or turbo on it.
Interesting I saw 2 GT350R, one at my work place, the other one is my neighbor's
About the exhaust note, yea when I pull down the back seats on my F10 M5, it does sound a bit louder too :P
Hey Bro do you know where your friend got the GT350R decal on the door of the car? My car is the same color spec and I will really appreciate it if I can get the info to buy those door decals. Thanks
I wud choose the regular Shelby GT350 since I like to drive mustang in a daily basis 😀
BOTH PLUS A GT 500....I LIKE TO honor shelby by getting a white w blu gt 350...but the R is got the race coolers...for oil trans diff...its sounds like R is really track ready...i like the lightning blue better...i paint cars..SN sonic blue was the paint code for best blue on the ranger edge....model code SN... sonic blue...SN is the lightning color too..i believe
It’s not just looks, this comparison was written by a 12 year old
what are the power/ performance differences
Imo I wanna kno what's the difference in whp, red paint isn't gonna make the car faster ..with the difference in msrp I'll just put a nice procharger + full exhaust = smiles per gallon
Do you know where they sell the GT350R lettering on the doors of the GT350r?
Just subbed
Nice video! Are there any differences under the hood?
Thanks! And no sir there are not.
That sound...
Exact same wheel sizes?
Nicely done. Quick and clear.
I need to learn how to drive a manual so i can get one
Felton McPherson same here
Once you drive a manual trans Mustang, you’ll never go back to an automatic.
305s & 315s on the R and 295's and 305's on the "normal" 350
Wyatt Aren't they 305 fronts on the 350
Edit: Just googled it, on the 350r its 315 rear 305 front. And for the 350 it's 305 rear 295 front
my bad I knew they were bigger on the R. Was going from memory and my memory failed. :p
Wyatt wrong !! gt350 : front 295 mm, rear : 305 mm michelin ps sport
gt350r : front 305 mm, rear : 315 mm michelin ps cup 2
no shit !! I corrected myself like 3 hours ago. can you read comments?
Wyatt lol I hate people who reply when a million people already did
Can you get back seats for the gt350r and the gt500?
How come Ford won't make Eleanor? (GT500)
Do you know where I can find those side decals on that white GT350R
The GT 350 is so bad arse....u cant go wrong its a Shelby Race Crew massaged bred car.. by a guy who won The Le Mans 24hour race as a driver an for Ford as a builder....Carroll was no nonsense an did what a race driver would to a race car...
What color scheme should I get help!
I would just get a normal 350 and steal the wheels off a 350r ...350r is pointless.
glenn lbs my buddy did that😂
Michael Robinson he stole the wheels. Badass. Ask him if he can hook me up with some wheels.
glenn lbs Those carbon fiber wheels are expensive as hell, might as well just buy the r
Ur fucking dumb. I’ll enjoy my better springs, lowered, bigger splitter, track beast, better interior seats stiching, better brakes, 13k wing, rims, and exhaust. Have a nice day
@@wolverinee 13k wing? What planet are you on. Don't need to be butthurt just because you own a 350R. Its quite easy to convert a 350 to a 350R. Those are the facts. Suspension is the same you just have to tune the setup, brakes are pretty much the same (I'll give it to you that the R brakes are better) the cor components of the car are the same. If I want to add the wheels and the wing I can. And the wing is not 13k, you are greatly misinformed.
CarMax will sell you one for its regular price I guess CarMax is good for something
Guys it basically the rear seat and wheels calm down they are both little sisters lol
It's like $1100 just to replace the rear tires on the R every 2k-3k miles or so 😮
You think the new Shelby will get a dual clutch trans?
Hmm, I think it'll wither be the same 6 speed manual as the GT350 or 10 speed auto. (or both)
these cars have twin disk from factory. 10speed will never be an option in this car.
so same horsepower?
Correct
The R made 3-4 more hp 467 vs 471 when Motortrend tested them but those gains were probably due to the lighter wheels. I might be wrong on this. I think Ford did say the R has a more aggressive tune but they choose not to certified the hp increase because doing so wasn't worth the money. So potentially the R makes more power but barely
Better make sure you have good local roads. I would hate to hit pot holes with either. That must drive owners mad.
Dallas right? Why no blue and silver?
Austin Tx. And blue and silver what?
Exoticars19 I think he means blue and silver paint to match the dallas cowboys colors
Another football fan assuming a city's identity is just its NFL team
Best of
Quick question: does the GT350R have a AC system?
It does if you option it in
sick sick SIIIIIIIIIIIICCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
The R is useless to me. The rims and wing can be added to the non-R. Seats can be deleted. Waste of manufactoring time if you ask me.
beautiful
Whereabouts in Texas?
if you are going to make comments about the benefits of carbon wheels vs. aluminum wheels then take the tire off and weigh the f?
No i'm not going to take the tire off... And it's not an option upgrade, you have to get the R.
MartyGT3. All 4 wheels cost $16,000 (thats not a typo) and are made in Australia by a company Ford found and bought into. They have a NASA derived ceramic coating on the inside diameter of the front wheels to help with brake heat sink from the Brembos. They weigh 18lbs each and are painted to keep the carbon safe from the elements. The hubs are fitted with longer studs which is why the lug nuts look the way they do. The wheels alone are reason enough to go for the R, that and the MUCH lower annual production numbers of the R Chassis. If you buy a GT350 and plan to add the wheels later, you're doing it wrong.
Those carbon rims I believe are a couple grand a pop at least. I dinged one of my rims on my ‘12 with the Brembo package. $1300 and change. For 1. Not even carbon.
If you can get a GT350R for msrp, it is the way to go.
