After 3 years of owning my 2017 Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang, I thought I'd make an ownership update explaining some people's concerns, my experience year by year, and then finish up with what I still love about this car. If y'all have any questions feel free to ask and I'll try to get to yah. Thanks for watching!

Very good points. I just read a review recently that discussed this exact issue on engines failing and data clearly showed engine failure is not a significant problem. Out of the thousands sold only a few were problematic. Vast majority are very reliable. Only handful were bad.

Do you think it’s good idea to trade for the GT 350 or GT 500? I really don’t drive the Bullitt much right now and probably wouldn’t drive new one more as I daily a Miata (for its fun factor!)

@@rembo183 It really will come down to whether you want an automatic or manual. I would say go for the GT350, the exhaust alone is worth it, and its a manual, you cannot beat having a 8.2k revving V8 engine. The GT500 is nice, but for the price of about 75k-90k you should just get a '68 or '70 GT500.

Aye! GREAT VIDEO MAN! Listen! ignor every single person telling you not to service this car at the dealershit! (yes i meant that) *cough i mean stealership* In all seriousness unless you are rich or a technician you should take it to the dealership to HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE if anything at all happens so there is a clear consistent record. The extra few hundred bucks over time you pay is more than worth it as insurance. When i take my car to the dealership sometimes I PRAY IT BLOWS up so i can get my money back and get something new off their mistake! I got a BRAND new transmission this way from Nissan on a 370z just because i did not like the way it shifted. and i only had the car serviced there. If i took my car to billy bobs save a discount mechanic shop or tried to wrench on it myself i guarantee you the dealership would have fought me on it Most of the people disagreeing with you cannot separate their ego from the risk of having 40-50Grand up at risk on a car to be wrenching on it yourself. Once again great video this helps me alot, im seriously eyeing a purchase on one of these or an GTR r35. Keep up the Great gt350 content !

I too choose to use my dealer for service and have cultivated a good relationship with the shop foreman and the tech who services Shelbys. I share many of your views - not ever owner is hard core - nor needs to be to enjoy this special vehicle.

My 2019 had a weak and failing oil pump 7 miles on the odometer. The shifter had to be replaced (before the recall was issued) for the reason why it was recalled recently. The transmission also had issues with the syncros between 2nd to 3rd gear. Ford and the dealership replaced them all without issues and I was taken care of. No issues since. She's my daily and I love it. Things happen. So long as the issues are fixed and no issues stem from this, that's a win in my book.

I don't take it to the Ford dealer for service, though. My nephew, who I really trust, runs a local shop. Like you, I prefer to have documentation on everything done to the car, just in case. When I bought this thing, I told my wife, I would never sell it . . . but I'm looking at your car (same color scheme as mine), and I'm thinking maybe a GT350 is a good way to go. Not the new GT500, which is too extreme. I think the GT350 will be collectible soon.

My favorite view of the car was looking in the mirrors from the drivers seat back across that rear hump. "Full synthetic" oil is not synthetic at all. Only "100% synthetic" is synthetic, as in Amsoil. You are paying for hype.

Great video and agree....of all the cars I have ever owned, this is by far my favorite. That says a lot as I also have a 2020 GT500 as well, but would take the GT350 everytime. Wanted to expand on the engines. I have a 2018 and am on my 3rd engine. The first one was a gen 1 non R engine. The replacement was a 2019 R replacement. The 3rd was the same 2019 R replacement. I will point out that I regularly track the car and is driven at its limits. Also, all of my friends that own the car and TRACK them have ALL gotten a replacement engine which includes a 2020 Heritage R that just got a replacement. Generally all replacements were do the cylinder number 8. I have added the AR oil balancing lines to the last replacement in hopes on preserving the lastest engine. I would recomend this add to everyone, just as a precaution. Again, my favorite car of all time!

I drive the car fairly hard, at least to the point I don't feel guilty, on the street but at no point has the engine, gearbox, clutch etc. had any issues. From my POV the car is over-engineered and other than hard track use at constant high revs, the engine couldn't care less. I do have an extended warranty though just in case.

Good to see you're still around. I love my 350 too. Never get tired of driving it and especially the sounds it makes. I've done the servicing myself and have had no issues at all. I was able to attend a GT500 Track Tour put on by Ford ,in Joliet IL last month at the Autobahn Country Club. This is a country club for auto racers that has two road courses and a Karting track. Was able to drive the car in a lead follow behind a Ford Track Attack pro driver . The back straight is 1850 ft long and I was able to do about 150mph before a 90 degree right hand turn! The traction, speed and braking on that car is fantastic. Also did several hot laps with the pro driver in control! That was eye opening. Wish I could afford to own it along with my 350! Also, they had at least 15 carbon track pack cars there with 12 of them on the track. Hope you get lucky enough to own them both.

It seems to me there are too many people that feel they “must” almost immediately modify nearly any vehicle they purchased for it to be worthy of ownership. My main problem with that is many people doing these seemingly mandatory modifications aren’t exactly qualified to perform them properly. So issues end up coming that otherwise likely would not have if the car was just left alone! Some obviously more serious than others. I don’t think it’s fair to condemn a car or an engine bc YOU modify it not knowing what your doing and then fuck something up.

That is pretty pricey for an oil change though (I don't have that car, I assume it takes more than the typical 4L of oil which probably justifies the higher price a bit?). But I don't think they can fault you for going somewhere else for an oil change as long as they're an actual mechanic. I started to do my own oil changes, just because I don't trust mechanics with my car, I don't trust they'll put in Synthetic when I pay for synthetic. The mechanic I do trust, is super busy and it's inconvenient to go to because I'd have to wait a while.

Regarding your comments about GT350 slow in the low RPM. This is true for the GT350 prior to 2019. I drove 2018 on the track an notice the same slowness in the low RPM. I own 2019 GT350 and I can attest that there is no slowness in low RPM. It's a lot better, whatever Ford did with gen2 motor.

I just bought a brand new '19 in may. Got it up to 1500 miles about a month ago. Took it into the Ford dealership to get my first oil change for the same reason you stated in this video. 175 bucks. Pretty ridiculous. I live in Illinois in a suburb of Chicago. We get tax raped on everything here!

The 1969 and 1970 Boss 302 would often blow up. But it wasn't the engine. It was the drivers. Often from missing a shift and over revving.

You get 15.6 mpg that's good because I just get 10 lol. You can actually start the car in sports mode. Hit the ignition button once and it will wake up the car. You can select the sports mode, press the clutch and start the car as usual.

Yeah I felt the same way. 15.6 mpg is pretty good. I get 11 mpgs and I don't drive it crazy all the time.

You could fully turn off the track control. You need to hold the bottom for about 7 seconds.

Oh trust me, that doesn’t do it fully lol

I have done it. So there is a button to turn track control. But that same button you have to hold down for 7 seconds and it turns off everything.

Cool video! So have you never tracked the car? Taking this car on track is a absurdly fun experience, you owe it to yourself to try it if you haven't.

Did you ever have brake squeal issue? I had to service my brakes and coat the back of the pads with special coating material to make it go away. Other than that my four year old GT350 track pack has been nothing but a thrill to drive. Not selling mine since this will be the only flat plane crank naturally aspirated mustang with stick shift in history of Mustangs. The value will only go up in the future especially ones with low miles.

I’m actually thinking of getting a 2020 GT350, as it appears to be my last shot to buy a new one for several years. Glad to hear it’s doing great. I’ve heard that the Voodoo engine eats oil like nobody’s business. What’s your experience?

@rjhick1 3 жыл бұрын

2020 GT350 has Gen 2 Voodoo engine. Oil consumption isnt a problem

Do you track your car? If so how often? You’re car is well cared for at dealership so that’s great as Nd I’d do the same but there’s been concerts on the internet about engine failures. What’s your mileage at this point? Obviously if it’s pampered there’s less chance of issues. (Like a weekend car not a daily?). The maintenance experience seems cheap to me based on your costs. Coincidentally I own a 2019 Bullitt but I’ve seen a 2019 GT350 for sale locally with only 100 miles for a good price-$62k. This has all options like carbon dash, comfort seats, electronics/tech pack with B&O audio. My car plus $25k for trade? That’s a lot of money- basically $65k out the door, but I’ve been thinking of this car a lot. Ruby Red metallic with grey leather trimmed seats. (A/C and heated seats.)
