The only Mustang I’ve ever owned that I didn’t change the gears out is my Boss... so I’m thinking a gear change in the GT350 would be a hot ticket.
Looking for GT350 Owners' Feedback on the car...

^^This. I wish I could give it multiple likes.
When the GT350 was first announced, many of us opined that a set of 4.10 gears in it would hurt a lot of feelings on the street. A 4.56 might have it breaking hearts. That's one of the beauties of having copious revs at your disposal. The drag racers could gear it up and still not lose any MPH at the lights.
Where is this GT350 forum you speak of?
SVTPerformance encompasses everything Ford--and then some. Maybe you missed all of the Hellcat discussion. Or the multiple threads started by the Website owner regarding Chevy and Chrysler products.
This thread is in the 2015-18 gt350 section with the title of looking for feedback from gt350 owners. But I don't know where I got the idea this was a gt350 based thread
There is a gt section in this forum maybe you can impart your knowledge over there rather then bashing a car you neither currently or previously have owned
Aahh thanks. I figured there had to be one. Us lowly GT guys should definitely stick together!
Never called you lowly, just dont agree with bashing a car you dont own when someone is looking for honest feedback on the car. I dont own a Gt so I wouldn't go to the Gt section and talk trash about them.
How am I trashing it?
The oil burning issues are well documented as is the soft power delivery coming from the bottom. Those aren’t my opinions... they’re facts.
Now.... My opinion is the thread has run its course and can be loosely summarized by saying:
The 350 is at home on track and has few competitors/peers in that segment.
As simply a weekend toy for the guy who wants the thrill of being pushed back into the seat and slapping around the GM guys at every stoplight— probably better choices out there than this car.

Man you gotta give it break in here. Try going over to the Corvette Forum and bash those overheating 1 lap Z's and failed autos that paddle slower than a vacuum lined tranny from 1977. It's true. I clicked the paddle for an upshift and took a bite of my sandwich a sip of Mr. Pibb before it shift. Go bash what the ZR1 owners paid for a car with no ability to put the power to the ground and those fugly stick on side vents. Talk about the ultimate pucker factor that you could pile it up any moment if you don't modulate the throttle 24/7 but hey it's got 755 HP!!! No thanks. Been there. Not what I call an enjoyable driver.
Really. Go do it. What's the difference? You don't own a Z or a ZR1 either. Diversify your trolling a bit.

Just think... the $100k you paid for that $69k wheezy 350r could buy a new ZR1 here in a few months once GM gets tired of seeing them sit on lots.
Those 11th graders you drive by everyday during your lunch hour would really think you’re cool!

Under MSRP bud with 7 miles on it. Patience rewards.
Mr. Pibb has been mentioned!! Loved that shit.
Guys i think @gimmie11s driven one multiple times, maybe not owned one, but i have for 12k miles and i agree with what he’s saying.
This is a thread about feedback for someone looking to buy, IMO they should get feedback that is honest and not just the good stuff. Every car will have its cons.

I know when I purchased my R the Camaro wasnt even on my radar as a possibility to replace my 14 gt500, I just dont like how they look.
I agree with giving the good and bad of a car if it comes from someone who has owned the car and has experience to pull from. Driving a car twice does not make you an expert. I test drove a Raptor several months ago I wouldnt try to sway someone from buying one based on that limited experience. I've found that 99% of the time when there's someone bashing the 350 its usually a 5.0 owner who've never owned the car

FTFY and yup. Or they claim to have owned one but traded it for a Hellcat.
(Because nobody is making blower or turbo kits for the GT350. /sarcasm)
why does OWNING a vehicle have shit to do with personal experience?
I was at a shop and have TONS of HOURS behind the wheel of a GT350.
Unimpressed would be an understatement. As is the consensus a lot of the owners post purchase.
I'm sorry, but its the truth.
