[QUOTE="KBBoss302, post: 16788938, member: 135228"] Just to be clear - only the 2020 GT350R model got the revised front knuckles. The "regular" GT350 did not. If I were in the market, I also would probably only look at a 2019 or 20 model with the Gen 2 engine. Lots of speculation on the web about exact differences but, in general terms, the 2016-18s seemed to have oil consumption issues and sometimes some catastrophic issues. The 2019s and 2020s don't seem to be as affected, although be aware that there is a TSB for certain 2020s that did not have the cam chain tensioner "activated" at the factory and the engines blew up in very short order (typically less than 1000 miles). It's not quite the same as a GT500, but I had a 2013 Boss LS for 8 years before getting a 2020 GT350R. Parked next to each other, loved them both. But I found myself driving the 350R 9 times out of 10 so I sold the Boss to a friend. The Boss is one of my most favorite cars ever but the 350 is just a whole other level of awesome! You will not be disappointed if you get one! [/QUOTE]
