Sounds like a lot of the praise for the gt350 is due to the R’s carbon fiber wheels. From the motor trend review of the non-R:
“When you drive it back-to-back with the R, you learn just how big a difference those lightweight wheels make: The GT350R feels hundreds of pounds lighter. It’s not—just 67 pounds separated our two test cars—but the non-R’s steering is heavier and less communicative, and it’s noticeably less responsive to all inputs. Its Michelin Pilot Super Sports are 10mm thinner than the R’s Pilot Sport Cup 2s, and grip trails off, too. The only handling demerit the GT350 earns is electric power steering that runs out of assistance if you try to make quick corrections. Those, mercifully, are rare so long as you’re not trying to drift it; the optional MR dampers provide the same supernatural body control that the R’s do.“
