@@denisspratt926 Not sure how bad it is up there, but let's take a GT350 as an example.

Love everything about this car. This Shelby is not the fastest car I owned, and it’s not the most techy car I owned, but this car makes me feel as one with the car, whereas other high tech cars made me feel as bystander/passenger. I owned ton of BMW M cars to include M5 CS and F80 M3 manual, owned MB’s and PorschesI, and I also driven driven Italian exotics, but in my opinion, GT350 tops all of them when it comes to driving enjoyment. What I learned from my car history is that manual cars with raw power is where it’s at. Chasing latest and greatest can lead to expensive disappointments. For me it’s always going to be analog from now on. This my daily, btw.
Paul, I must say, for someone who has been subbed to you for nearly 10yrs now, seen the highs and lows of your channel, I am really enjoying the content you are putting out these days...wee things like the sound engineering that went in to carefully selecting background song choice and subtle sound effects make the overall package much more pleasurable to watch. Glad to see you putting so much effort into the channel and the platform. Keep up the good work pal!
F***ing Awesome!!! Just awesome. You don't have to have the most tech, be the most refined, the quickest or fastest, even though it's up there. More importantly, it's the fun factor and smiles it gives you. Period!
You’re so right jolly! I ordered my new Mustang GT 5.0L V8 and in 4 years I’m still smiling every time I hit the power button and in all that time apart from yearly service, I’ve just had to buy a new battery, and I don’t drive it like Miss daisy!!
You totally have to add this to your collection. For the channel of course! Seeing your excitement while driving this only reaffirms this is indeed the car I'm saving for! This one is the exact spec I'm hoping to get one day.
The fact that Ford just announced they are ending production of the GT350 means The Best Mustang Ever Made According To Me will become even more special (and expensive)
Spending $200 USD to remove the stock resonators (the R has no resonators) makes it sound twice as amazing. You don't really realize it until the resonators are gone, but the sound in this video is actually quite a bit muffled from how it wants to sound 👍 Best mod I've done to date.
Don´t get mad at me, please, but: The GT350 has a 180 degree cropped crank, so it is not the classic V8 burble. If you want that, get a Bullitt, with the 90 degree carank, the Vodoo airfilter, throttle body and intake manifold plus the valve exhaust system of the GT cars. Also known as the stage 1 tuning kit from Ford Motorsport. Apart from that: Great video as usual and entertaining motoring. Cheers!
Yaaaaaas I remember when you first got in one a few years ago and really expected you to purchase one!! May be a good investment since production will be ceased. One of the best future classics
The worst things about a LHD car in the UK: barriers/ticket machines/drive-thrus, overtaking on B-roads when you don't have a passenger (hard to see the opportunities to pass).
The Gt350r is even better!! Because it doesn’t have resonators, it sounds even better. It also looks better than the regular gt350, and many other differences. The 2020 gt500 is obviously faster tho. Drive a new gt500, you will see how it might be better in some ways..it’s a supercar mustang. The price of a used 350r in the US is the same price of this car. And yes, you can daily one. I prefer the 350R, it’s my dream car
Ed B gt350r:Weight difference, carbon wheels and wing, no resonators, no rear seats, red gt350 badges, red stripe on steering wheel, .4 seconds faster 0-60, wider tires, lower, more downforce obviously, that’s pretty much it.
Ed B Everything I’ve said is true. If you ever driven both of them you know there’s differences. There’s a reason why most people get the R instead of the regular 350. And you can get the R for about the same price as the 350. I would never get a 350, always keeping with the R
Ed B Where I’m around I only see R’s. But yeah main difference are the wheels but for what your paying(around 60k for a used one) it’s worth it because a set is around 15kusd.
this is a real car ! not to much computer stuff and no speaker set ! a real roaring V8 and for that price !!! i only wonder what the tax wil be on that car
Does this have a different exhaust system on it because it's in the UK? I didn't hear any pops or crackles. The GT350 is the most fun car I have driven under $100,000 USD hands down. I'm getting one soon.
What a car that is. I once drove a convertible Mustang in the mid-nineties in Florida, and was so disappointed with it. Had it been this car, today, I would be like the Cheshire cat. Shame about the music Paul, but at least it is only quietly playing backround music.
UK roads and parking spaces are narrow, and remember the steering wheel is on the wong side for the UK. Most people would conider dailying a car this size in the UK rather challenging. In LHD significantly more so. So, realistically, in the UK, for most people it would be a weekend car. Of course, you could still daily it, but it might make you hate it.
Blimey thought you were driving my car for a second there but mine had white stripes over the top lol. Had no stripes for a few months and that’s also the same price I paid, had a heart attack 😂
I have a BMW M2c & the GT350R is something I’d put well w/in the same company; great car. My dream is a C8 Corvette, but the current waiting period & price the way I want optioned is out of my budget.
Best version of the modern Mustangs
Nop, you've to see THE real snake: SHELBY GT 500
GT500 is the best! Just wait!

The price of a new A45s, I am 1000% more willing to pay 60k on a 350 than pay that in a A45.
The engine in that car is just a work of art.
The sound is so cool.

Italy has some really poor roads, hope the ride wont be too harsh.

Get rid of the M2 Comp and get this on your channel
There simply isn't a better comment on this video than this one.
Especially in the UK since they are so rare over there.
Quite agree..put your money where your mouth is...DO IT..haha
I agree. But if your getting it get the R version.

I’ve owned mine for 2 years now. After 25k miles, Shes been great to me and puts a smile on my face every single time I get in :)
The first SOL video i ever watched was you finding the gt350r that Ford lost in London
I remember that one.
Same
Same
People in the UK are jealous of this car.
Damn right.
Good option to trade the M2 Comp for?? As far as smiles per gallon goes, I think this has the M2 beat pretty handily 😂

Would pick a gt350 over a gt500 all day, love em both but a manual paired with that brutal v8😍yess
Had the pleasure of driving one of these in LA last year a fantastic bit of kit! Extremely rare and expensive over here, unfortunately.
The dramatic music in the background 😂😂
These are as common as a 911S in California, so it's always interesting to see someone from a market where they're not available react to one.
Would be great to see one of you youtubers across the Pond to have one of those in your garage.

Sell the m2 and get a GT350
Paul enjoying a GT350, now this is a proper video finally.
You need to have one of these, Paul.
You HAVE to hear one of these with Long tube headers and x pipe. SCREAMS
Really enjoyed this Paul, proper good times behind the wheel.
This car would suit you perfectly 😍😍

Sadly we dont get this car in the UK. So we have make do with bland German cars like rs3's
What about the Aston Martin V8 Vantage (prev gen)?
Living in America, these are a dime a dozen but they look so exotic overseas😂
They're still like $50k on the used market, and I personally don't see gt350s very often.
This might be the easiest car for a salesman to get rid of. One good redline, and you’re sold.
The GT350 IS SICK & SOUNDS SICK AS WELL😎👍🏻👍🏻.
Great video. First great one in a while. Music helped. Great soundtrack all around.
Just watched the new Officially Gassed video on a 950hp one of these. Mental
Does this have a different exhaust system on it because it's in the UK? I didn't hear any pops or crackles. The GT350 is the most fun car I have driven under $100,000 USD hands down. I'm getting one soon.
Thats your third car? That?❤❤❤❤
Such a mega car. So much more interesting than any of the usual common Germanic blandness.
Music needs to be quiter bro. But I enjoy your content and purity, love that your not fake and just being yourself
I don't think you open the exhaust valve for louder sound
well done video. the excitement behind the wheel of this thing is legitimate. i daily it right now, its the most enjoyable car i have ever driven.
The best V8 engine, I love my borla at my pony, Great video Thank you mate!

You definitely watched Jamie's vid from Officially Gassed yesterday 🤪
£60,000 plus £60,000 tax. £120,000 in uk. 😔
The best American Mucusle of This century. LAST BREED
Best color, with or without stripes. GT350R just for the carbon fiber wheels. If you're going that far, you might as well go all the way.
If you want it to sound just a bit better get rid of the resonators!!! I did on mine and omg
Why because it looks awesome 😎
Should I buy this or the new corvette c8? I am buying one of those cars soon
I have a 2029 GT350 in the US. It is my daily spring through fall. Nor reason It needs to be a weekend car!

YES 400%
Get oneeeeee, I would watch all your videos with it.
Absolutely beautifully sounding 😍😍😍
How do I buy a Shelby mustang in the uk?
That's the one, buy it!!!! Amazing
Everytime the car made ya giggle, made me laugh..
Much cooler and better sounding than any other 60k car.
We love that sound. V8
I want to get a 350, but next generation challenger(2023) and Mustang(next year 2022) are around the corner so I just wait till then
V8 rumble over any v12 or v10 any time.
Nope. Nothing beats e60 m5 bouncing off the limiter or a v12 screaming lambo.
Great video, awesome car. I liked the music but probably the wrong video to have it on. Let the V8 do the singing! LOL.
Damnnnn...what a beautiful car 😍
What about the stock V8 F-Type SVR??
Having bought a 55 Edition .. would definitely recommend to anyone thinking about a mustang!
Pauls in love, aren't you?
Sounds even better without the resonator. Just like the R
Hey paul BUY IT!!!!!!
It cost just over 50k$ in the US
your video on TH-cam was better than usual , nice
What about an r which sounds even better
Take this over a German performance car every day of the week.
I recently watched a vid where a UK chap has one with 900hp...now that's a weapon...!!
What was with the strange music in the background? Never got a good look around the car plus what sort of ending was that 🤷🏻♂️🙄
Blimey thought you were driving my car for a second there but mine had white stripes over the top lol. Had no stripes for a few months and that’s also the same price I paid, had a heart attack 😂

Wish these were sold in UK
Buy it buy it buy it plzzzzzz
What a sound.........
Hahaha so considered with that old man and the dog
Now the 350r will be collector items. Collectors will want the 350r not the 350. So yes there is a huge difference between the 2.
I absolutely love these
So you've bought it then?
I love that car and want it so badly, but it's not possible here in India to get it. Leave that the normal mustang is 80,000 pounds here
WOW!!!!! reminds me of the transformers, when things get emotional with optimus prime and the backgound music
Where is this car at
